famous ex player

Will be going to see Skyfall at the weekend.
Which other oldies out there can remember James Bond playing for us?
As I recall we sold him to a FL Club after quite a short but memorable stay with us.

Don't recall James Bond playing for us - not on the list of ex-players on Ken's site - and don't ever recall a squad number of 007. Must have been a winger though!

However I do remember the sky falling in the day we lost to Wrexham!

That'll be Tim Dalton in 1986 - a year before he started his stint as Mr Bond.  ;)

The actor Timothy Dalton was born in Colwyn Bay - who Boston play tomorrow in the Trophy.

If we're looking at players with famous namesakes, then I'd put Alex Higgins as more famous than Timothy Dalton.

Well done Ken on beating N40 to the answer.
Tim played in the season when RoB famously used, as I recall, 10 keepers (inc our Director). How many can you name wthout looking them up.
The following season RoB made up for it by signing an outstanding keeper - the mad scouser.
