Can you spot him in this team photo at Wembley Stadium in a Charity match: I haven't got a clue what Winslow Boy looks like? ? but I would take a guess and say that he is in the back row some where ?? next to Ewan Thomas maybe?

Rhodes Posted June 6, 2020 Author Share Posted June 6, 2020 I only recognise fifteen of the seventeen and, in no particular order, Sam Anderson, Jeff Brazier, Gary Beadle, James Baxter, Ewan Thomas, Jake Hendriks, Mark Ramprakhash, Ron Talforth, Alec Stewart, James Hooten, Steve Hart, Syed Ahmed, Amir Khan, Darren Campbell and Winslow Boy, I am sure he will let you know when he come on later and which one he is, keep guessing though as you were wrong first time albeit fairly warm. Its a great picture and he must treasure it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winslow Boy Posted June 6, 2020 Share Posted June 6, 2020 Cheers chaps. Was a fun day. Not as good as playing in Jody Craddock’s testimonial though. I’ve got to say, looking at this picture I am aging like a fine wine. 2 minutes ago, Rhodes said: I only recognise fifteen of the seventeen and, in no particular order, Sam Anderson, Jeff Brazier, Gary Beadle, James Baxter, Ewan Thomas, Jake Hendriks, Mark Ramprakhash, Ron Talforth, Alec Stewart, James Hooten, Steve Hart, Syed Ahmed, Amir Khan, Darren Campbell and Winslow Boy, I am sure he will let you know when he come on later and which one he is, keep guessing though as you were wrong first time albeit fairly warm.

I'm told James Hooten's voice is 100% different to his Emmerdale character Sam Dingles voice ? ? did you notice that when you were chatting to him when the team photo was being taken? ?

How was it marking Quinn & Phillips in Jody Craddocks testimonia!? Are you friends with Jody Craddock? Jody is a good pal. I played upfront, Jody switched sides so I was up against him, Darren Williams, Michael Gray and Matt Piper. Phillips and Quinn were brilliant, in fact Sunderland bossed most of it despite us having a number of the current Wolves team at that time playing (they were still drunk from night before, they’d just won league one title) I was happy with my contribution, kept it simple. I did mark Paul Dalglish a few years (more than a few) before in a game and had him in my pocket, few weeks later he had signed for Livingston before going to Hibs and then on to win MLS with Houston scoring twice in the final!

Jody Craddock had a very good solid career didn't he esp with Sunderland FC? and Wolves FC? Won a couple of Championship medals as well. I never really saw Dalglish Junior play. Any good? Alex Rae played? He was a good solid player I always thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winslow Boy Posted June 6, 2020 Share Posted June 6, 2020 Daggers was always going to struggle in his dads shadow, he was a good player and was probably held back by following his dad to clubs too big for him. Jody had an excellent career after being plucked out of non league as a kid. Alex Rae was class, still is, if it wasn’t for the drink I’m sure he would have achieved even more. Super player and great engine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Changing rooms felt like something from a movie set with all the comforts they had rather than football changing rooms. played away at Bognor once and their pitch was lovely.

Thank you. I got plenty of messages over the various social media and texts and calls. I spent it looking after my two boys, the.
