O'Reardon and Beagrie were the two that walked out on the club when we were in the mire.
I imagine they both regret that.

When I went to the 20 year anniversary meal Colin Cooper stood up & made a very emotional speech, he said, players can go through their entire career & not experience what we did in the 18 or so months after liquidation, the players & fans were so united, it was an unbelievable, unforgettable period that I am thankful I was able to play my part, you think that period is going to last forever, I know certain players who walked away will never experience what we went through
