Marcus Richardson

A successful season with Slough alerted league scouts and he spent a week on trial with Cambridge United in July 2000.

His spell at Torquay began with his as regular, although he was later mainly used as a substitute, competing with the likes of David Graham, Eifion Williams and Tony Bedeau for a place up front.

He gained cult status among Hartlepool fans and was known as "Tripod" due to his large member.

The following month he joined Yeovil Town on a free transfer, but was released at the end of the season, after just four appearances in which he failed to score.

In June 2005 he joined Chester City, where he scored the killer third goal in the club's shock 3–0 FA Cup win over Nottingham Forest in December 2005.

However, he only managed a handful of other goals for the club and joined Macclesfield Town on loan in March 2006, scoring twice on the final day of the season at Bristol Rovers to help assure the Silkmen's Football League safety.

After a successful pre-season trial, he joined Bury on a month-to-month contract in August 2007,[6] linking up with his erstwhile Lincoln City manager Keith Alexander.
