(Addendum 1: J Knappett played against Barnet on Sep 1, 1994. J Knappett also played against Cockfosters on May 1, 2023. Enquiries are continuing as to whether they were the same person, in which case they go to the top of the list at 28 years 248 days, or whether one was Jon and one was Josh, in which case they’re both really irritating. Watch this space)

(Addendum 2: K King’s three appearances for RRs covered a span of 22 years and one month, during which the club payed 752 matches)
