Nearest to Brunt is Gary Owen?

I spotted you in pic 2 - long hair and beard just behind Baggie players. lol

Picture 1: Is that Brian Talbot in the background?
Picture 2: Haven't got a clue !

As for the Everton game, reckon we'll whup them 1-0. !

You been on the beer again, BaggieMan? Laugh

Picture number one. Astle's pose is very close to his goal in the 1968 final. And how many goals did he score with his left peg, the one he claimed only to use for standing on??

Picture 1: Did you mean John Talbut? I think it's Graham Williams. Specsavers awaits our calls. Laugh

The Scharner pose is the Sunderland away game in which he scored in a 3-2 win? Great day out that was. Thumb up

What, with the players and management that Everton have got, and the doldrums that we appear to be stuck in, there's quite obviously no way that we can win or draw this game, or even lose narrowly.

2-1 to us Whistle

Can't tell whether or not you're on the wind-up, but that's never Gary Owen in a month of Sundays! It's got to be Jonno, but I can't work out whether it's Phillips on the right or if they've sneaked in Paul "badge-kisser" Robinson instead. They couldn't have, could they?

I don't think the Scharner pic is from Sunderland, by the way; he wore that t-shirt in one of our derby games in 2011. Reckon it might have been the win at Villa Park in October that year.

I genuinely thought Gary Owen, but why would he be on a mural? Jonno would make more sense, but the nose and hair shape look wrong to me. (Unless he was having a bad hair day, and he had plenty of those!) I can't work out the other player, the head shape seems wrong for Paul Robinson but it could be Kevin Phillips, but I'm not convinced about any of those. Quick answer is I'd have to see the mural for myself.

Baggieman....Picture 2 is Mick Martin and looks like Ally Brown or Bryan Robson behind him.

I'm going 2-2 today

Nice words from our new chairman.
Just a thought - he talks about our traditional stadium......given the choice, how many would prefer to stay where we are, and how many would chose to move to a new one?
MY vote would be firmly in the "stay " camp!

I would prefer to stay where we are - buy up all the land and houses we need, divert Halfords Lane, and build from there.

Looks like Ian Hamilton and Larus Sigurrdson but the strip doesn't feel right for that era.
