Plays his 1000th game today. Fair play to him.

Blimey! Was that the year we beat Huddersfield or Bristol City in the play offs, only to do a no show against Stoke in the PO final?

He was waiting for the Brentford fans to leave first.

Hate the bloke but you have to give him some respect. 1,000 games ffs and still scoring!

Interview with him today in the Daily Telegraph. Played for Enfield in October to become the first player to play in the top 9 leagues. Still going at 44. Said his favourite goal was for Reading against us that won them promotion......

Did he mention when he was too scared to leave the pitch at Dagenham?

He previously held the record of 8 jointly with Michael Duff, currently managing Cheltenham Town.

Except that Duff climbed his way up the 8 levels in ascending order, whereas Cureton was up and down. More to the point, Duff went on to play international football, something Cureton is unlikely to do - unless they make him England manager and he picks himself!

I think Duff's 9 levels trumps Cureton's, so back in your box, Jamie. :thumbsdown:

I hate him with a vengeance but I do have a sneaking regard for him too I'm afraid.

Was a quality lower league striker. Even got to play in Korea didn’t he? Done well for himself.

**** though. Utter ****.

Several hundred games as a pro and some decent stats. Has made the most of his career.

Players like Cureton should be the ones that dickheads like Berahino look at to see what is possible.

Spent years disliking him after that goal at the end of the 2001-2002 season but now I just admire him for what he’s achieved.

We had the chance to sign him but that is another story......

There were rumours that he was close to joining years after 2002 - maybe due to the Martin Allen connection? Maybe later? I remember my dad saying "oh god I don't know if I could face that"

Would have been a good signing before that of course but we were never going to afford him at his peak. Even the allegedly cut price fee Reading paid, £250k or so, was way more than we would ever have afforded.

Going back even further I went to a few games at the Madejski Stadium in its first season (98/99) having grown up locally and one of them was Reading 0 Bristol Rovers 6. 0-0 at HT. Reading were about 6 places above them in the league...
Cureton scored the first 4 and Jason Roberts the final 2. Both went on to play for Reading, a decade apart. A very odd day out amongst the home fans.

I asked MA why Cureton legged it from Eastleigh on the day he took over, but he was very, very cagey.

It’s not for sale apparently and it appears that the shirt is not the match worn original but another one that has been signed by Cureton.
