2010-11 he broke his cheekbone playing for Bury at Southend, so that's very probable .......
Interestingly, he seems to have made his Bury debut as a late sub against Accie at the Crown Ground on 3rd May 2008 when Bury won 2-0; now why does that game ring a bell...............................? No reflection on him, I hasten to add
Decent reputation; welcome on board Mr Belford..............24, with a decent amount of experience at our level.

Re: Seasonal Emergency!
all this guff about Dawber not being on a pro contract, does it matter? does that stop him from playing? if so why is he on the bench if he cant come on?

Re: Seasonal Emergency!
4 keepers before the new year is that a record? Then 3 in a week could be!

Re: Seasonal Emergency!
Having watched him (Belford) a few times...he's a very good keeper at this level...
Other option...
Throw an 18 year old in for a league debut at a game..... where we'll play in front of a hostile 6-7k+ plus....with a makeshift defence in front of him??? Where we may take a hiding???
Destroy the lad's confidence????
Dawber may play a blinder (if played) , but I can understand Leam's reasoning!!
Get 50+ points on the board ( & SAFE ) then blood talent.

Correct, he is in his final year of a youth contract.
Sign him up NOW Leam ! Or he can walk for next to nothing.

Re: Seasonal Emergency!
Belford confirmed - ASFC News Story > 5159 - lots of fiddly paperwork and whatnot for these emergency loans, hence the late arrival (just ask Mr. T!)
To clarify the Dawber situation I believe that the management are very keen to give him a pro deal (and have been for some time) BUT if he signs as a pro then the club aren't allowed to bring in an emergency loan, which would only leave Dawber available... and as we've seen in recent weeks it's probably a good idea to have two keepers available!

Very good point made by Dan about if Dawber signed Pro deal we would be unable to loan another emergency keeper.
With Belford returning to Bury on Jan. 3rd it means we will still be requiring a goalkeeper
Belford joins Accy Stanley

Re: Seasonal Emergency!
Hi, Chesterfield fan here!
Belford was Bury's goalie that we ended up in the papers for one of our idiot fans running onto the pitch and decking ... should make things even more interesting ...

Re: Seasonal Emergency!
to answer to Nige b, i dont think we will ever beat 3 keepers in one day.
20/8/2005 away v cambridge united, Jones jacked midweek, Gallagher was signed and a lad called harrison, gallagher didn't turn up harrison was on the bench bertrand bossu played in goal, that was a disaster he couldn't catch a cold, all three never played again,
in came randolph all history

Re: Seasonal Emergency!
For what its worth, Belford did nothing wrong today.
He looked gutted at the final whistle, so fair play to the lad.
