Ooo Vonky Vonky

MY favourite memory of the vonkmeister was when we played Wimbledon at Maine rd and John Fashanu was giving Kernaghan a real hard time. Whilst waiting for a throw in Fashanu was giving out a few elbows to Kernaghan when Vonk stepped up and swapped places with Kernaghan. Fashanu turned round and seen the change of personnel and promptly fucked off across the other side of the pitch.

Michel Vonk (born 28 October 1968, Alkmaar, Netherlands) is a former football player from The Netherlands who played in defence.

Vonk played in the centre of defence and began his career in 1986 with AZ Alkmaar for whom he played 111 times and scored 8 goals. He transferred to SVV Dordrecht in 1991 and played 51 times for the team scoring 1 goal. Then in 1992 he transferred to Manchester City F.C. where he enjoyed three succeessful seasons playing a total of 91 times for the blue team and scoring 4 times. He had been brought in by then City manager Peter Reid costing £500,000. He formed a successful partnership with Keith Curle in the centre of the City defence. In 1995 he criticised then City manager Brian Horton in the News of the World which earned him a suspension and being fined 2 weeks wages. Subsequent City manager Alan Ball sold the player to Oldham Athletic F.C. where he played 5 times and scored 1 goal. He was then transferred to Sheffield United F.C. where he played until 1998. He played 37 times for the Blades scoring twice. His time with the club was hampered by injuries. In 1998 he returned to Holland and began playing for MVV Maastricht. His injuries continued however and he was released by the club when they were relegated.

currently the coach of the under-14 B team at PSV Eindhoven.

Vonk left Man City in 1995, joining Oldham before hanging up his boots at Sheffield United.
 
Yep ...... almost 15 years have passed since he left us.

Was a good player for us , brought some much needed stability to the back line.

Mick McCarthy was one of our hardest, I remember him giving Andy Gray a good hiding away to Villa one year. A great Centre Half as well.
