That restricts it then to, Connery, Moore, Dalton or Craig.. unless we had a Brosnan or Lazenby!!! .. which I dont recall... I'd be guessing I cant remember any such goalie- Sealey, Suckling were the main protagonists... wasn't Raddy around this time too.... unless he was in Bond as well.. ?

I can.t get the brother the player you mentioned earlier either.... and who is the Lionel Ritchie look a like between Butterworth and the mystery goalie?

 

[Spionkop]

See Steve Jacobs in there, Errington Kelly (who I thought was useful in reserves). Ian Butterworth,, Lloyd obviously, Ashley Grimes, German newspaper, Chukkie, Derek Hall, Graham Withey, the young Irish goalie who won the Irish lottery, had a good career in Ireland. Micky Adams, John Hendrie, Nicky Plantenauer. etc. etc. Can't place the young lad bottom right. Anyone recall him?

 

[Spionkop]

Oh yeah King Power, the goalie is Tim Dalton.

 

[deanocity3]

bottom right is John Matthews who was from Cov.think his Brother was wayne Matthews who played cricket for warwickshire
lad at the back is Andy Spring

 

[deanocity3]

the chap on the right with half a face is keith Thompson
think we have them all now
