Played in the Hatfield Chace u15s and u16s team with Ako. Head and shoulders (literally and ability wise) above everyone

If you go and look at picture of Mark Atkins holding the shirt with Nick Buxton then scroll across it mentions about Doncaster City being deducted points for playing illegal/non register players. Leopard and spots comes to mind

Have been a huge fan since his very late equaliser on a wet Tuesday night at Kettering. Two down, partly due to a very rare Andy Warrington error and  pouring with rain,  Chas Walker asked the KTFC officials if they’d let the rain soaked Rovers fans into the virtually empty main stand and they refused. We got a goal back and then the Atkins equaliser on a night where nothing went right.
