Profile:

Andy was one of the first crop of Old Boys and was another player who's Old Boys career was interrupted by injury. He still however maintained his tanned looks and a flowing mane of hair (which in latter years showed signs of greying) and continued to be an important cog in the Old Boys in a variety of midfield and striking positions, where he was always likely to chip in with a fine/damn flukey strike. More recently, Andy has been part of the annual Golf Day, winning the much coveted trophy in 2009 and more importantly giving him the opportunity to have the nicest motor in the car park.
