If he started at 17 that's only 40 games a season, Ralph! Factor in injuries and longer seasons with cup games and sounds about right. I'm assuming he's a keeper?

Averaging 43.5 games a season over 23 years is an even greater feat for a midfielder! Must be shy in the tackle... :P

Chris Burns still dons his boots for Brockworth Albion in the northern senior league, not sure his age but he has to be mid 40s
