Little and Thornley.

Was going to say that too. To think what a Thornley of 2002/03 and Little 2004/05 partnership would had done!!

Chambers and Power/Russell didn't do too bad

[CB]

In recent times, Marcus Hallows and Colin Little?

[taxi Phil]

Statistically the worst is Ricky Harris and Andy Green with 12 goals between them in 93-94 season.

Swindells scored 82 in 65-66, with Pat Connolly weighing in with an additional 34

Swindells and Worth managed a combined 71 in 66-67, 63 in 67-68, 57 in 69-70 and 39 in 70-71 for a total when together of 230

Johnson and Rogers: 37 in 77-8, 49 in 78-9, 27 in 79-80, 23 in 80-81, 18 in 81-2 and 12 in 82-3 for a total together of 166

So my heart says Johnson and Rogers, but the facts demonstrate clearly its Swindells and Worth

Lies, damned lies, and statistics. Johnson and Rogers were facing a higher standard of opposition than Swindells and Worth had to cope with.

Worst ? Apart from those two donkeys currently grazing at Moss Lane, I give you.....

Shreeve and Furnivall.

[ManagementGuru]

I endorse Shreeve and Furnival - WOEFUL. Mind you, I never rated Mick Moore either

As a key measure - there is NO game in which both Shreeve and Furnival scored whereas Green and Harris both scored in a 3-1 win at Stalybridge and 1 2-1 win at home to Runcorn

[hsmith1]

Swiddles and Worth for me as the best followed by Rogers and Johnson,as for the worst no idea

[TheCultOfIanTunnacliffe]

Johnson and Rogers: 37 in 77-8, 49 in 78-9, 27 in 79-80, 23 in 80-81, 18 in 81-2 and 12 in 82-3 for a total together of 166

So my heart says Johnson and Rogers, but the facts demonstrate clearly its Swindells and Worth

Bill,

An additional point to consider: after the arrival of Barry Whitbread at Moss Lane in October 1979, Jeff Johnson switched from being a centre forward to a new role as a left-sided midfield player.

Swiddles and Worth

Sounds like a firm of solicitors. or is it one of your favourite beers Phil?

For what it's Worth (!) I'm going for Swindells and Connolly.

Reminds me of the time Oddbins in Alty advertised a certain beer as "Wadsworth Sick Sex!"

But then I once advertised Bishop's Finger in Safeway as "Nun's Delight!"

All time dream partnership - Little and Swindells

All time nightmare partnership - Twiss and Brook

Disagree. Peter Thompson edges out Twiss on this one. In fact, we've hard a few that are worse than Twiss!

[PaulClementsLaments]

Wasn't fortunate enough to see Swindells & Worth but Jeff Johnson and John Rogers were a class act.

christ on a bike! worse than twiss! what so we have had players that would class as -1 squad player because of him literally eating the wage budget for 2 seasons

[ManagementGuru]

Cult - I think we moved Jeff into midfield because he wasn't quite good enough to cut it as a striker at APL level.  Apart from his hat trick at Mossley he struggled to find the target early in the 79-80 season, with only one league goal before Barry Whitbread joined us.  But what a great servant of the club.  Perhaps my favourite Alty player ever

[Jimmy]

Since I've been going McKenna and Brady hit about 50 between them in 90-91 granted I can't compare them with others I haven't seen

[distancetraveller]

Swindells and Worth anyone?

Undoubtedly
