Kevin Horlock

[auction294]

People rememer the amazing goal by Paul Dickov to equalise with Gillingham, but I think Kevin Horlock doesn't get the recognistion he deserves because if it hadn't been for his first goal, then there wouldn't have been a second.

Maybe not the most technically gifted player to wear a blue shirt, but he was the right kind of player at that time. I remember his scoring a few belters in the old 2nd Division as well. Hope he's there today.

Very steady player who performed well each week and never shirked.

Scored some important goals as well, and good with penalties and free kicks.

Super super Kev

I thought he was great player for us
always gave 100%

Remember he called us the best pub team he's played for. Rings true now doesn't it.

One of my all time favourites was Kev. Always reliable. I wouldn't have wished for that blocked Goater attempt to fall to anyone other than him at Wembley. Then he stepped up and took the first penalty. What a lad.

Remeber when he got sent off for aggressive walking.

I couldn't believe it, the players were looking at one another bemused.

we never lost when Horlock scored

I announced this fact with much enthusiasm when he bagged the first at Wembley

Up until that game, that is true.

Unfortunately his run was broken at Liverpool when he scored and we lost 3-2, in 2000.

He did a decent enough job for us back in the day
