Nicknames – Sterry Junior, Chinky

Ed first joined the ranks in 2007, just missing out on the chance to beat his brother’s record of being the youngest ever player. Ed also endeared himself to the club by DJing at the Testimonial Dinner in September 2007. The Junior version of Sterry is less ginger and less talented than his big brother, but is much funnier, and improving with every outing. After a spell away from the full squad during uni years, Ed has now rejoined and has time on his side to establish himself in the WIFC squad.

Stuart joined the club during Jamie’s recruitment drive at the start of the 2010/11 season, making a goal-scoring debut in the Yellows v Reds game. Stuart has gone on to show a great eye for goal from midfield, and scored a contender for best WIFC goal with his strike from the half-way line at Barnsley. As one of the more skilful members of the squad, hopes are high that he will go on to become a key player in the next few years, although Stuart’s chronic lack of banter is a concern. If we can persuade him to make Worldnet this year, it should see an improvement in that vital area too.

Nicknames – Pan

WIFC’s senior citizen, Panos has over seven years on the next oldest player and is on course to play for WIFC after his 50th birthday. However, the aged one’s fitness puts many of his younger team-mates to shame, and he will quite probably carry on playing long past some of us as a result. Player of the year in 2002, Panos was away from the scene for a few years, and returned to the full squad in 2010. Even though he still does that amusing thing of tilting his head when he runs, there are surely a few more years in the tank, yet.

Jeremy joined the club during Jamie’s recruitment drive at the start of the 2010/11 season, making his debut in the Yellows v Reds game that season. Since then, and despite missing Worldnet for cricketing reasons, Jeremy has grown in stature and confidence around the squad and was voted best newcomer for 2010/11, the 3rd keeper to win that particular award. Jeremy’s undoubted on pitch highlights are two match winning displays at Barnet, the second of which won him the inaugural WIFC Willie Thorne man of the match award.

Alex made his first WIFC appearance at the Stevenage Tournament in 2010, notching his first goal in the 3-2 win over AFC Wimbledon that helped the team go onto win the tournament. Since then, Alex finally joined the full squad for the start of the 2011/12 season and soon broke a club record by scoring in 6 consecutive games. Having quickly established himself among WIFC’s striking options, hopes are high that Alex can threaten more records in the years to come.

Nicknames – Big Stu, Dale, Tina O’Brien’s lofty companion

Stuart made his WIFC bow back in 2005, and made intermittent cameo appearances for a few years, waiting until 2010 to become a full member of the squad following his excellent performances for the Vets team at that year’s Worldnet. Since then, more than one opponent has remarked on Stu’s uncanny resemblance to Dale Winton, but his height and versatility have become key ingredients in the team, as have his relentless comedy turns as he tunes his Strictly Come Dancing warm-up act on his WIFC team-mates.
