My first match, not his Dave!

Ok

Terry Dunfield - all I remember is his attempted overhead kick in front of the North Stand at Maine Rd.

 

[Shirley]

Tony Whelan, around 1973.

A City fanatic in his younger days. Has had a long and successful career at the swamp since, he’s still there.

Just the 5 times prior to yours. I can understand not wanting to trawl though 50+ pages but the search function (top right) is really helpful for things like this. I mean there's a drop down menu to limit the results to just this thread too. How clever is that?

obviously a lot cleverer than me..but most things are these days

Jimmy McMullan - captain of the Wembley Wizards in 1928. Seven years at City.

Well, if you're looking back, I give you the great Patsy Hendren - scorer of 170 first-class centuries and 57,000 f-c runs.
Played for City in Edwardian era.

Tony Cunningham. Like Douglas Bader. Good in the air but no legs.

 

[SatOnTheWall]

Paul cooper

Played in the 5-1, mate. Hard to forget really.

Terry Dunfield - all I remember is his attempted overhead kick in front of the North Stand at Maine Rd.

remember he was the standout player for reserves that season and kept Barton out of starting XI , Dunfield scored one of best goals i've ever witnessed at a live game at OT in Manchester senior cup final in 2001 in a 4-1 win.

 

[Stelea]

Fash. Derby away 6-0 defeat. Saw him play for us away at The Swamp for the reserves. Outstanding in I think a 3-1 win where I think he scored 2. One was a header similar to McCarthys in the Derby in 86

 

[Stelea]

Kevin Langley a cultured midfielder from Everton. Stiff as a board for us in his 6 or 7 games

 

[Mad Eyed Screamer]

Funny thing. Just had a message from a friend asking if I remember Nick Limber. I said yes we signed him from Doncaster and he never played for the 1st team.
He replied he is now a football coach to my friends nephew at Doncaster Grammar school

Tony Cunningham. Like Douglas Bader. Good in the air but no legs.

Pilot with Ryanair now

 

[Xhavenjoe]

actually thought Dalziel was okay in the brief time he spent with us -

Lazy b******.
His partner Pascoe did all the work

Wow. Ex Sheff Weds. Was at Wednesday when he scored for them. 1984?

He's a solicitor in Lincoln ... think you've been Clarkied :)

Good at nothing when he played for us. Even Kevin Horlock was better at aggressive walking than him. Well actually Cunningham's was more an amble than a walk.

I got the joke
