I think his twin played as well .... Alistair Brown

Dont think Ally and Bomber were related
Maybe wrong though  Huh

Young beefster, I know was a little jest on my part ..... two great players in our great 70's side who should have won silverware and England caps ....... but that's football

Kevin Bartlett - young front-runner who played alongside Don Goodman late 80s.
Don't know what heppened to him, but I just remember a goal he got at Elland Road, when we were 2-0 down, and him & Donno got us a draw. I was sat with the Leeds fans that day, and just managed to suppress a smile.

He went to Notts County in 1990, and was part of their subsequent promotion to (and relegation from) the top flight. Finished his career at Cambridge, retired due to injury in 1993.

I think that must be last week's winner, WCA.

This week: Players who you've seen whose Surnames begin with the letter C (Don't forget: the most obscure wins).

My brain's in typical Monday morning mode at the moment, and the best I can think of is Richard Chaplow. We bought the midfielder from Burnley 10 years or so ago, but he didn't deliver as well as we were hoping. I think he was England U-21, and everything Dan Ashworth bought in those days turned out to be great buys, but Chaplow was disappointing imo.

Famous for being signed by Villa and going straight into the first team for a UEFA Cup tie against Inter Milan. One minute he was playing for Alvechurch, the next he was marking Klinsmann in the San Siro. A few years later he signed for Albion, played a few games and then retired from football to become an accountant.
Remember him mainly because I played a couple of games with his brother for Birmingham University seconds. He kept on passing me the ball and I kept on losing it. They never picked me again!

I thought i remembered Ray Crawford signing for us but looking at Google I see he was just before my time.
Never mind, I'll throw him in anyway.

Len Cantello! What a class midfielder he was!

Then we had Calamity Carson in goal!! Lol!! Thank goodness we have improved in that department!
Also didn't we have a bloke with a girl's name play for us? Stacy Caldecott! Was he a defensive midfielder?
