Andy Bannister was signed on
loan from Burnley in early 1995 by Bangor manager Roddy Collins.
A striker, born on 23/07/1976, he had been a regular for the
Burnley Reserve team. During his few months with Bangor,
Andy trained full-time with Burnley and flew in for matches.
Perhaps Andy is best remembered
at Bangor for all the wrong reasons. In a league game against
Linfield at Clandeboye Park, he came on as substitute and
within minutes he made a reckless challenge on Noel Ballie
and was sent off. Noel Bailie also had to leave the
field through injury.
In 2002, Andy was playing for
Nelson FC in the North-West Counties Division Two.
