    On the box tonight playing for Chorley v Wolves.

    Turned out for us in 2014. Played one game in the EFL Cup. Weirdly, Wikipedia is saying he replaced Mason Bennett in that match after 65 mins. I'm presuming we must have had our first choice keeper sent off, as Bennett is a striker. Can't remember. Only just saw his name in the line up tonight, and thought it rang a bell.

    Would have like to see the underdog advance, but still, they gave a good account of themselves.

    About Urwin: Wikipedia has got that wrong. Urwin was one of the problem players when I was helping double-check the Bantams Heritage player records, because he was indeed showing in various sources as having played that one match for us. Here was my comment on that:

    "...SkySports makes a muddle of the subs. They list 5 subs being used in their ‘teams’ page: McLean, Yeates, Urwin, Pollard, and Webb-Foster, and on their ‘live’ page they have Urwin rather than Yeates replacing Bennett. Soccerbase has Urwin replacing McBurnie. The BBC, along with the McLean and Webb-Foster subs, has Urwin replacing Bennett only to be replaced himself by Pollard, who is then replaced by Yeates! The T&A report has the McLean, Yeates, and Webb-Foster subs..."

    The T&A report was correct; it was Yeates who replaced Bennett. But that took a bit of digging to work out!
