Interesting, if somewhat nightmarish, reading from the ALS archive that I stumbled across

Fans’ favourite Proctor was a player who never really failed at the club, but still found himself transferred out. Scored the winner at home to Liverpool, in one of the few highlights in the relegation season. An awful performance, with Kyle, on the opening day of last season at Forest went against him. Kyle was given the chance to prove his doubters wrong and became a major player for Sunderland but Proctor played second fiddle to Stewart for his remaining time at the club before Sunderland swapped him for Byfield at Rotherham. Grabbed a few goals for his new side before the season finished. Definitely capable of scoring goals at this level and McCarthy may now be wishing he had him as back up.

Scary stuff that. How far we have come in 5 years.

Always thought that Tommy Butler was a good talent who was systematically ignored by Reid at a critical time in his development. He should have been involved in the first team picture from the first 7th place season.

Didn't he have some major personal issues that led to him ultimately having his contract terminated "by mutual consent"?
