簡介﹕
Son of the legendary Brian Clough, Nigel made his name at Nottingham Forest under the managership of his father and had a very impressive strike rate for a midfield player of a goal nearly every three games. Though never blessed with much pace, he is an intelligent player with good awareness, vision and passing ability and thisled to his transfer to Liverpool for a fee well in excess of 2 million pounds in the Summer of 1993. However, he struggled to hold down a place in the Reds' first team and eventually lost his place to the emerging talent of Robbie Fowler. This also resulted in him losing his place in the England squad so in January 1996 he signed for City for ?,500,000 in the hope of resurrecting his career and improving City's strike rate.

Nigel's City career never really took off and he spent most of his time at Maine Road in the reserves. Shortly after the start of the 1998-99 season the remaining year of his contract was paid off by the club and he retired from playing.

簡介﹕
Cannock's finest export Stanley Victor Collymore became Liverpool's record signing during the summer of 1995 when Roy Evans paid Nottingham Forest ?.5 million for one of football's hottest properties.

Everton also made a bid for Collymore but the striker wanted to join the Reds. After an excellent pre-season, Collymore made an explosive Anfield debut with a stunning goal on the opening day of the 1995-96 season in a 1-0 win over Sheffield Wednesday.

However, in his next game at Leeds United he was injured and missed the following three games. Again though he bounced back in style with another stunning strike from 30-yards in a 3-0 win over reigning champions Blackburn Rovers at Anfield.

Despite these spectacular strikes Collymore struggled to settle. He scored just two goals in seven starts and was dropped to the bench with Robbie Fowler and Ian Rush paired in attack. Frustrated, Collymore took his problems out in the open and a controversial magazine interview, when he questioned Roy Evans tactics and criticised the club, did little to help his cause.

After a clear the air meeting with Evans, Collymore began to do his talking where it mattered and established himself as a Kop favourite. Restored to the attack, he formed an excellent partnership with Robbie Fowler. Collymore scored 17 goals and created countless others for the likes of Fowler, and played his part in a quite extraordinary 4-3 thriller at Anfield against Newcastle United.

Collymore scored twice that night including an incredible injury time winner, which proved to be his finest moment as a Liverpool player, but the season ended on a depressing low when Liverpool lost the FA Cup Final to Manchester United, and a below par Collymore was substituted.

The following season, which turned out to be Collymore's last at Anfield, was even more controversial. He found himself in and out of the side and, to make matters worse, he refused to turn out for the reserves at Tranmere Rovers one midweek evening and was fined. Another major problem was his refusal to live closer to Liverpool, and he commuted from his home in Cannock.

With the emergence of Michael Owen Liverpool cut their losses and sold Collymore to Aston Villa, the team he supported as a boy for ? million. However the striker was to have further off field problems which tarnished his career. After undergoing treatment for stress Collymore moved to Leicester City but after a good start he had an argument with manager Peter Taylor.

Bradford City then took a chance of the enigmatic striker and sure enough he made an electric start with a magnificent overhead kick in the derby with Leeds United, but it all ended too early with the Bantams cutting their wage bill.

Collymore then tried his luck in Spain with Real Oviedo but after being told he was overweight and having to settle for a role on the bench he decided to quit. Sensationally announcing his decision to retire from football at the age of 30, Collymore said he was hanging up his boots "to explore other career opportunities."

簡介﹕
Howard Gayle achieved two notable claims to fame during his short, but sweet, Liverpool first team career.

A boyhood Liverpudlian from the Toxteth district of the city Gayle fulfilled a dream when he signed for his idols in 1977 after being spotted playing Sunday League football by John Bennison.

He quickly established himself as a key member of Roy Evans' all-conquering reserve side and in October 1980 made his first team debut at Manchester City. He came on as a second half substitute for David Fairclough and in doing so became the first black player to ever represent the club.

Blessed with lightening speed and intricate skill Gayle's most memorable moment in a Liverpool shirt came six months later in the impressive setting of Munich's Olympic Stadium. It was the second leg of the European Cup semi-final against the mighty Bayern Munich and Liverpool faced a daunting task in their bid to reach the final in Paris.

Sent on a substitute for the injured Kenny Dalglish early in the game Gayle made a dramatic entrance. He terrorised the Germans with his blistering pace and dazzling ball control, while his frequent probing forays into Bayern territory silenced the vast home crowd.
