Ian Pethick Posted August 24, 2020 Report Share Posted August 24, 2020 Interested to know the longest continuous run of seasons that players have been active in senior football (by that, Combo and ECPL league level and above). One that immediately springs to mind is Keith Manley who I believe played for Falmouth in the SW league from about 1969, through to appearances for Liskeard in the Western League as late as season 1993/94. But I think the winner has to be Bradley Swiggs with Liskeard and various other clubs in the Western and SW leagues from (I think) 1976/77 up until 2011, when he was still turning out in the P&D Premier League. Can anybody improve on Bradley's 35 seasons? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
