Saw Adebayo Azeez*, Michael Smith and Joe Pigott as the forward line at Sparrows lane under Nathan in that 2012/2013 season when he was boss of the U21 at CAFC before leaving for Brighton. They thrashed Huddersfield in one match with 6 goals.
* I'm doubting myself now as the Bromley born striker was at CAFC from 2008/12 and there was another Black lad (Not Harriot who was with the 1st team) who also was a forward at that time 🤔

An odd choice imo as Henry executed so many people due to his strong belief in absolute power, his volatile personality, and the prevalence of treason as a capital offence. The number of executions during his reign is estimated to be between 54,000 and 72,000. Common methods of execution included hanging, drawing and quartering, beheading, and burning at the stake.
Come on you Tudors ... Well yeah, but not so much if you're a catholic

Tobi Sho-Silva?
Cheers Scoham. I believe it's the alliteration that threw me with Adebayo Azeez and Sho-Silva ! Tobi S-S is 30 and played in the National League South recently for Maidenhead and AA is 31 as mentioned for Hemel Hempstead also in National League South.
Both lads have had full and part time football careers over the last dozen years.

One of the worse tyrant's that this country has ever seen yet he's been turned into a tourist attraction for England. I have a season ticket for Hever Castle at the Boleyn's family home and will often heckle the memory of the obese despot.
Will there be a bite size summary thread to accompany this one?
There is nothing to see here unless you are interested in our ex academy players who never played for the 1st team or History of the Tudors 😀
So, what you are saying is that this really should be a pinned thread...
Just going to point out, as an aside, that it was also treason to "compass or imagine" the death of the ruling monarch, spouse or heir during this period (which could have proved awkward, had tourist memorabilia been a big thing back then, and there was a big funeral/coronation on the cards).

And he only got the throne and his first wife because of his brother’s untimely demise. I wonder what Arthur would have been like as a king. Would the Spanish Armada have happened? Would the state still be allied with the papacy?

Tuna....I think he works in a sports centre
Signed for Hemel Hempstead Town FC
The crest features King Henry VIII, who features in the town's history. The town was part of the monastery's estates until the King initiated the Reformation and break-up of Ashridge in 1539, as part of the dissolution of the monasteries. In that same year, the town was granted a royal charter by Henry VIII to become a bailiwick with the right to hold a Thursday market and a fair on Corpus Christi Day. Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn are also reputed to have stayed in the town at the time.[9] The association with Henry VIII is why the club is nicknamed the Tudors.
