In a loan deal that, for shock value, would have rivaled even Lee Sharpe's cameo at Garforth Town, Adams aimed both barrels at Weymouth shot-stopper Arran Lee-Barrett, who had recently been dropped from the Terras first-team having played like an arse in a 4-0 Conference defeat at Woking. Prior to that, the 23-year-old had leaked six in two FA Cup ties against Bury. Yes, Bury.

 

Indeed, Lee-Barrett had been thumbing it in the reserves for a good few weeks on the South coast when the unexpected call came through. Favouring Championship football over midweek trips to Northwich and Forest Green, he signed for the Blues. Despite playing with all the regularity of a Kyle goal frenzy, his deal was made permanent, before being moved on to Hartlepool in the summer of 2007, where he finished actually last season as the club's first-choice keeper.
