There are few more prolific league goalscorers than Steve Guinan. This goal getter turned out for no fewer than 15 different teams in a long career, with 3 separate spells at Hereford United and a period at Cheltenham Town being perhaps his most fondly remembered times.  Here Steve goes over the best moments, and the worst, of this memorable league career with some hilarious stories involving Brian Laws, Vinnie Jones and an interesting period under Adrian Heath at (the greatest club in England - Luke) Burnley.  Steve went on to score 112 goals in a career of more than 450 games, and has gone on to a role within the Football Association which is incredibly interesting and has seen him interfacing with the likes of England Manager Gareth Southgate!

Breaking through in the infamous Class of 92 Youth Cup Winning squad, and playing alongside the likes of Paul Scholes, David Beckham, Gary/Phil Neville, Nicky Butt and Ryan Giggs, Ben made his debut for Man United against West Ham in 1994.
