Most people who are familiar with Newcastle Town's playing squads over the years in the North West Counties League will recognize the names Holmes, Diskin and Sutton.
Goalkeeper Chris Holmes, defender John Diskin and forward Dave Sutton were mainstays of the Town first team squad for many seasons, but on Tuesday night Town supporters could have been forgiven for wondering if manager Greg Clowes was suffering from a bout of All Our Yesterdays, as the names Holmes, Diskin and Sutton appeared on the teamsheet once more.
However, the modern day trio consists of Matt Holmes, Kyle Diskin and Nathan Sutton, the sons of Chris, John and Dave, and part of Town's young and successful Reserve and Youth Team set up.
Town secretary Ray Tatton said: "All three lads have recently tested the water with the first team and have certainly not looked out of their depth as they have covered successfully for injuries and suspensions. They seem to have a good future with the club and if they match their dads Castle will not have a lot to worry about. And the dads - they had to watch proudly from the sidelines on Tuesday night".
