TEAMMATES I Josh Kaine

Over the years Josh Kaine has been a main stay, clocking up over 170 appearances and wearing the captain’s armband for the vast majority. His solitary goal for the club was a sublime volley away at Eccleshall in early 2017. During his time Josh has seen a lot in terms of development of the club on and off the pitch and his loyalty and consistent performances have earned him a cult hero status at Silsden AFC. Captain. Leader. Sils Legend. Here’s what he had to say on his fellow players…..

Best Mate: Joe Mitchell – I’ve known him since our Bradford Boys/Bradford City days. Car chases, head butts and plenty of laughs along the way!

Joker: Chris Wademan – Got to be aware at all times especially in training. Running backwards minding your own business…. it’s too late!

Teacher’s Pet: Dan Illingworth – It’s got to be him! But we all love it. Great guy.

Hardest Worker: Arley ‘Farah’ Barnes – Fitness freak. He would run to all away games if Danny would let him.

Most Skilful: Khurram Shazad – He’s an absolute wizard, tie your legs shut if you don’t want to look stupid.

Best Dancer: Arley Barnes – He has some slick moves to be fair.

Future Gaffer: Ben Higginson – “Don’t tell me how to play football” is used in every team talk.

Toughest: Liam ‘Moneybags’ Hudson – With his boxing career.

Worst Dress Sense: Jake Taylor – Comes out dressed like Steve Irwin every night out.
