FANS FAVOURITES
Mick McGrath: 1954-1966. 312 appearances.
Matt Woods: 1957-1963. 260 appearances. 2 goals.
Keith Newton: 1959-1969. 306 appearances. 2 goals.

Ken Beamish: 1974-1976. 86 appearances. 19 goals.
Deserves special mention as whilst at Rovers, Beamish endeared himself to the
fans, who would chant "Beamo" whenever Beamish's shot at goal flew over the bar. To Rovers fans of a certain generation, a 'Beamo' is any off-target shot; indeed, the "Beamo" chant caught on
around the country.
