does anyone remember a dave or john fithon in the fa trophy winning side

sorry ment or in the squad

:evil: Think you’d be better off asking that on an MTFC forum.

The name JOHN FITTON struck a chord with me. He was a goalkeeper who played for MOSSLEY for many years and was their keeper in the 1980 F.A. Trophy Final when they lost 1-2 to Dagenham.

Possible that you mean’t him Billy?
