Lee Broadbent “Broady” is well known around the town with his designer clothes and designer cars, but on the pitch for Quills he always gives 100% and is classed as Quills main man.

 |
Scott Sugden “Suggy” is renowned as the most skilful striker in the league and would be a regular on Soccer AM’s “showboating” with his tricks.
