I wonder if he's any relation to Steve Lister, who played for us during the season we were relegated under Peter Morris? He was also a defender.
Steve Lister was ex-Doncaster Rovers and went on to become a Football In the Community Officer at Barnsley, so had connections in the South Yorks area. From the Hinckley site Paul Lister is Sheffield based. This could be a coincidence, but it isn't a surname you hear every day.
