What is this football you speak of?

 

Do U21 caps count?

 

If they do then that puts Nick Holmes out, he had an England U23 IIRC.

 

Edit: He was called up for the U23s, but was injured and didn't play.

He has one cap.

 

GK: Budgie Burridge

LB: Dennis

RB: Gerry Forrest

CB: Mark 'Albert' Whitlock

Mid field General: Case

did you mean Dennis Hollywood or Mark Dennis?

But then if I decide to make up my own "rules" so I can play along then assuming as I would only full internationals are included ( quite a few players play for U21's and don't progress to the full team, Rod Wallace being a very good example) then my team would be:

 

Wells

Steve Mills

Mel Blyth

Malcolm Waldron

David Peach

Nick Holmes

Graham Baker

Brian O'Neill ( would be fun seeing him playing today- or not playing as he'd likely be suspended for most of the time!)

Rod Wallace

Steve Moran ( gosh England must have had a wealth of striking talent in the early 80's since he was never capped)

Terry Jenkins

Mmmm!!! We had uncapped LB's like Steve Mills, David Peach, Mark Dennis and even Micky Adams and you've picked Frannie? Very strange!!

Played for the U21's but got caught up in the rape allegations when they were playing in Sweden I think, that probably didn't help his cause.

Ah, yes, good point. I was thinking about Fernandes. What a downhill career he's had since then...

 

How about George Clawley for GK then?

Jimmy Melia - saw him head a goal once may years ago - Milton Road end

For those who can't remember him, he was a little bald headed midfielder of ours who took a lot of stick from the crowd - but was loved really !!!

Indeed I can still remember "his" chant : " Jimmy Melia's got no hair ee i ee i o !" Not very original of course but still amusing.

By the way Jimmy heading the ball was a rarity never mind scoring !!

We need to know Hatch if you are referring to full internationals or also U21's etc; All you are doing by being so vague is adding to the stress TBH ;)

 

Sorry, I accidently fell into a pub, only just got back,

 

I do mean only Full Internationals, none of this other namby pamby crap.
