Our current longest serving player

[Tickhill Blade]

Dewhurst (if I'm not confusing him with another back up keeper) must have been close at some point?

Jake Eastwood? He must still be hanging around Shirecliffe somewhere

You've pulled a dig at a player out of absolutely nowhere there. Strong work

I’d use ‘player’ very sparingly too

 

[Danny_Blade]

Just my opinion but I'd go from when they signed their professional contract with us (either signing from somewhere else or from our academy) rather than their debut. This goes for both youth graduates and players who were already established professionals.

He's still our player as he's only left on loan of course so I think RND has got to be up there as one of our longest serving players surely?

Judging by when they made their actual Blades debut, either as a starter or a sub, League or Cup competition:

Looked some of these up on Wikipedia so I hope these figures are accurate

Including players currently out on loan but still contracted at SUFC.

Current 5 longest serving players (by debut):
1) Femi Seriki: Vs Newcastle, Premier League, May 2021 (late substitute)

2) RND: Vs Huddersfield, Championship, August 2021 (first appearance and first start)

3) Oliver Arblaster: Vs WBA, League Cup, August 2022 (it didn't say if he started or came of the bench), made his Championship debut from the bench a few weeks later against Hull in September

4) Adam Davies: Vs Coventry, Championship, October 2022 (initially signed in January 2022)

5) Andre Brooks: Vs Burnley, Championship, November 2022 (late substitute)
