Logan was given his first team debut in one of the cups before then I think.

[Mase]

It’s Vlad Weiss

[Burt]

Chef Evans?

[PeterParker]

Chef Evans?

I think Evans played under Pearce.

Cunningham?

[Mase]

It’s Weiss.

“He made his first team debut on 24 May 2009, replacing Stephen Ireland from the substitutes bench after seventy minutes in the final game of the 2008–09 season”

[Burt]

It’s Weiss.

But Leslie wasn't the manager then was he?

[Swales4ever]

Chef Evans?

I think Evans played under Pearce.

Cunningham?

Pretty sure also Cunningham was promoted under Pearce.
In fairness, though, Pearce's tenure was also the most distracted age of my then symphaty for the Blues.

[Scatman]

Wasn't it Christmas time 2009 when they sacked him? Ho ho ho.

Yes. Think he went mid-way through the next season.

[Tony P]

Yup it was Vláďa.

[Mase]

He’s now in some shitty league wasting his talent for money.

my memory (a very fading one) start off an early spring 1970 game where my granddad managed to have me grabbing a Buzzer signed shirt.
from then on my best guess is SWP, the lovely whirligig midget. sure I am not gonna get cigar with this, tho.

Probably Buzzer.
He quite often turned up legless after pissing it up with Bestie.

rightly so, I'd say.
Bestie was not only the best Munchenhauser ever (imho), but also the only decent human being of that lot (as far as I am aware).
