Popular Post JaneB Posted June 4 Popular Post Share Posted June 4 Not sure where to post this but as it's partly about SFL I think here is appropriate. I came across some old Chelsea Chelsea mags the other day from 2009 (supported by cfc.net). Several familiar names from the past in there - Peter Sampson, Jez Walters, Rowan Farnham-Long, James Prescott, Ollie Scanlon and Philip Rolfe (I'm sure the last two ring a bell?). Also a Q and A session with SFL, including two from 'Jane B, West Sussex'. Two memorable quotes from him: "I'd like to be Blues Boss" and "I don't have an interest in doing media work. I'll leave that to others. I admire people who do it very well, like Andy Gray at Sky, but I don't want to do that". (Wry smile 😏) 1 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulw66 Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 My nephew played 11 aside against Anthony Barness the other week. Said he ran the show. Mistake to let him go 30 years ago? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulw66 Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 (edited) A minute into the video, he tackles no 21 Sebastein Thill. Midfield general for Stal Rzeszow Yes, I had to look him and them up. They are in the Polish second division. Edited June 6 by paulw66 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAGNIFICENT Sciatika.... and a time when "foreign" players were Scottish Irish or Welsh! Unless my OG memory has broken down... Paddy M , John Dempsey (A somewhat unsung but appreciated stalwart) Irish....Cookie,Eddie Mac Johnny Boyle Scottish..... memory again but can only recall a couple of Welsh "foreign" players from around earlier ttimes but need to think that through although somehow the brother of one of the "English" contingent was capped for Wales. Did I get that all right? 👨🦯😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sciatika Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 John Boyle was definitely Scottish and Dempsey played for Ireland though I think he was born in Fulham. I don't remember much about him except that after he retired he became a mental health nurse. The main Welsh players in my memory were 10-15 years later with Thomas, Niedzswiecki (sp) and Joey Jones. Thomas and Jones played for Wrexham under John Neal. Thomas was later imprisoned for laundering counterfeit money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
