Quick Quiz Question.....

I think I've got this right so I'm prepared to get shot down in flames if I'm wrong.

I can think of just one blades player who has featured in 3 Blades promotion winning sides....

Can you name him?

(I'm guessing someone will get it straightaway!)

Stan ?

 

[ZoneManWilf]

Stan ?

84, 89, 90. must be Stan.

 

[Kenilworth]

Alfie?

 

[Punk Blade]

I suppose it depends on your definition of 'side'. Deano was part of the 89, 90 and 06 squads.

 

[coaxingstar71]

Obviously too easy!!

Well that ends that thread then, unless we can wax lyrical about Stan for a few pages!

 

[coaxingstar71]

Alfie?

Actually, good call!

I said I could only think of one but that's a great answer.

I can only remember River Plate of the exotic teams we have played.

 

[ZoneManWilf]

Was in China after the 83/84 promotion season. Don't know the oppo or score though.

Agree with 83/84...... Sarawak ?? comes to mind, not sure of score or what country but far east somewhere...... did they have a monsoon during the match

Just noticed, they're all wearing proper boots too

 

[BladesOnToast]

No idea about the Blades aspect of the quiz, but I do know that Sarawak is one of the two Malaysian provinces on the island of Borneo

 

[oaklandrdblade]

Wasn't it the Brunei national side? No idea on the score though

 

[coaxingstar71]

I'm guessing either Sabah XI or Sarawak XI on our tour to Borneo and China at the end of the 1983/84 season.

 

[DifferentClass]

Dunno but I quite like their hats!

Spoiler: Answer

Brunei 0 - 1 Blades

The gentleman in the uniform talking to Reg Brealey is the Sultan of Brunei, so I would guess we are playing the Brunei national team. Don't know the score.

I have spent a lot of time in Brunei. It is probably the most boring country I've ever been to.

 

[moDtheGod]

Will Chris Wilder count when he gets us up as manager this season? He was part of the 89 and 90 squads as a player.

Paul Tomlinson is the keeper, Paddy McGeeney is to his right. Brian Smith's face is just behind the Sultan's head, don't know the player next to Smith, Lee Walshaw, Tony Philliskirk and Paul Smith are there too
