Hang on, wasn't Simon Ainge a centre-back?
Yes. He was converted in to a Centre forward by Simon Weaver in January. He scored 4 goals against our sorry defence in his first appearance as a striker and never looked back. He also picked up February POTM and scored a hat trick v Fylde.

Good on the lad - strange that he's never played up front earlier in his career! Looked a bang average defender the few times we faced Harrogate.

Excellent for us as a centre half and was key to our run to the play offs in the National. Only left to drop a level as he couldn't commit to the travelling anymore.

The fact he's been converted to a striker, is frankly embarrassing for every player in the league tbh

Aingey was a great last-ditch defender for us at the time, and stood alongside Marc Roberts in the core of our defence for a full season until the latter started shading him in quality and took a move up to Barnsley.

I even tried starting a chant about him to the tune of Angels by Robbie Williams. It never really caught on. A-heh-hem!

I sit and wait
Does an Aingey contemplate my fate?
And does he know
The places where we go
With Shaymen young and old?
So when I'm lying in my bed
Thoughts running through my head
Of Marc Roberts' bandaged head
I'm loving Aingey instead

And through it all
He offers us protection
Hoofs it in the wrong direction
Towards the East Stand throngs
On Skircoat Road
Wherever he may take me
To Luton or to Grimsby
A West Riding Cup draw
... Away to Guiseley...
I'm loving Aingey instead
