The Heskey Lads

[SatOnTheWall]

Fenton brothers?

Roger and Cole Palmer. Someone has to say it. It’s a tradition, or an old charter or something.

The greenhoff brothers played at the leper colony. And also for Stoke…?

Jesus Navas’s brother came over and played for Bury, if memory serves.

 

[JGL07]

They came on a bit late against Huddersfield to impact on the result.

Otherwise, there could be complaints, in the style of Scooby Doo, that ‘Huddersfield would have got away with it but for those Heskey brothers’!

 

[Fat Chance]

Gray brothers leeds

Kerkhoff

De boer

Wonder if jack Reynolds ever ran out ( reserves ) with his brother.

 

[Mad Eyed Screamer]

Had there ever been a dad and son playing together for anyone?

Not together but last season Everton played Peterborough in the FA Cup and Ashley Young played for the Toffees and his son was a sub for The Posh but didn’t get on……

Going back to the 1950s, the Charles brothers - John and Mel - played for Swansea and Wales, as did the Allchurch Brothers - Ivor and Len.

Did our manager from the 70's John Hart play with one of his lads?

Not both at City but maybe lower level.

I believe George Eastham (ex-Arse-anal and Stoke City) played in the same team as his son. Possibly over in Ireland.

 

[Fernster]

Bobby and Jack Charlton world cup winners.

 

[SatOnTheWall]

The Laudrups were good.

Had there ever been a dad and son playing together for anyone?

Yes - Alec Herd (ex-City) and David Herd (ex-Utd) played together for Stockport in 1951 and Ian and Gary Bowyer played for Hereford in !989-90

Steady on. It’s not that sort of thread.

Not sure if it's correct, but didn't Eidur Gudjonssen play alongside his dad?

 

[kingn6]

Eidur once replace his father Arnor in an international match.

Eidur son Daniel replace his other son Andri in an international game this year. His third son Sveinn Aron also plays fot national team,.

Eidur has also coached at least one of them for the Iceland u21’s

KDB and Aleks

 

[Ignominious]

From the 60's and 70's Terry (Leeds/Newcastle/Birmingham) and Kenny Hibbett (Wolves).

Then there was our own Frank Clark and Wayne Clark, whose brothers Allan, Derek and Kelvin all played professional football. Admittedly Frank didn't actually play for us and Wayne barely registered......

Frank and Wayne?
Are you sure.
Wasn't it Alan Sniffer Clarke and Wayne ?

Think you may be confusing Frank and Eddie Gray with the Clarke brothers

Too many Clark(e)'s! :-D

At least it wasn't the one in The Hollies....!

 

[Xhavenjoe]

Boatengs.
I think they were the first brothers to play against each other in an international match.
