Blades player you'd completely forgotten about.

Lilian Nalis
Brian Smith and his brother Tony

So unforgettable you’ve forgotten his name. The brother was called Paul

Seen Paul working down the Lane many times a good few years back, he’s a copper. Don’t know what Brian did after football, maybe police also.

Ryan? Brooster? Nah. It's gone.

 

[speedymcgeady]

One of the best signings we ever made. Bought him for 42p and a half packet of savory vinegar crisps - sold him six games later to Celtic for about £3 million.

He's now the first black guy in France to own a vineyard.

Who is that? I give up

Jason Holt?

Peter Dornan. Around 1975. Hyped as the next George Best.

Peter Dornan. Around 1975. Hyped as the next George Best.

Came in with Stephen McKee...
Dornan got homesick, went back to Ireland, McKee made so many appearances, triggering extra payments, and got banished to the reserves, until his contract ended.
I'll chuck in John Burke too.
Never made a first team spot.

I’m fairly certain he’s not been mentioned yet but who was the centre mid who (I think) played during the season we got relegated from the championship. David somebody? I think he was Irish. Scored a goal when it was obsolutely bouncing down at the Lane. Went on to play for Shrewsbury?

McAllister.. Him and Paddy Connealy signed, and Connealy got loaned out, then quickly left.

Isn't he still playing for Accrington? Seamus Connelly

I'm probably thinking of Paddy Considine

Who was the keeper that wasn’t Baxter?

Probably already been mentioned but the thread is 16 pages and I can’t remember his name so searching would be somewhat counterproductive

Must have been mentioned previously, but the centre back duo of Mark Blount & Mark Foran bring back sad memories of a 3 sided ground, not forgetting Ross Davison at right back with Brett Angel up front.
Perhaps, it was just a nightmarish dream ?

 

[Birdwell Blade]

John Egan - the first time

Wait what?

Remember when we had Owen Morrison for about 5 games?

 

[blade67]

Wait what?

John Egan signed on loan from Sunderland for Danny Wilson in our first season in league 1

This was after the Oldham home game where both Lowton and Maguire were sent off.

He played in 1 game, against Walsall and then went back.

My recollection is that Wilson was asked what the qualities of Egan and Hill (who was also signed on the same day) were. "we could afford them", wasn't exactly a ringing endorsement.

I'd completely forgoten that Egan had played for us until we signed him again, 6 years later

Aksalu

He’s Estonian, though he went on to have quite a successful career in Finland. Joined a second tier club who got promoted and subsequently won the top league and also domestic cup. Also got voted best keeper in the country in 2015, player of the year and went on to captain them.

Now back on Estonia.

Who is Anders Joa?

 

[Brewster Cost Millions]

Ben Doane.

And to summarise, no wonder we're getting excited at the minute- fuck me we've watched some shite

Scored a cracker at Crewe though
