I rarely post these days and when I create threads it’s usually when I’ve been on Wikipedia and found something interesting.
Anyway tonight’s can’t sleep journey started with Riyad Mahrez being turned down by St Mirren, then I refreshed my memory of maradona being snubbed by Sheffield United leading on to Alex Sabello who they signed instead then John Lukic who used to take him to training whilst at Leeds.... before flicking from goalkeepers galore until landing on Shilton who was inducted into the list mentioned above.
There are 3 players in the list that played for town and there is also a loanee who never actually played.... it’s not much of a clue but he was born on the same day I was and I once played on cowcliffe fields (directly opposite what would eventually be Marcus Stewart’s rented house) in his massive match shirt and gloves, as my very good friend (still good friend today) dad was a first division referee at the time.
Can anyone name all 4? The last one is a lot easier now.
The journey through wikipedia also took me to Stuart Taylor who in light of a keeper concerns, I always thought was a very good keeper yet he only made 95 career appearances.

Sheffield United didn't reject Maradona; he rejected them and they took Sabella as the next best choice. |

And we think our setup is bad. St Mirren let Mahrez and Mooy slip through their hands. 🤪 |

At a guess- Clem Stephenson, Denis Law, Jimmy Glazzard. Can't think of who the loanee would be

Going to have 6 guesses to see if I hit the 3... .Denis Law, Ray Wilson, Alec Jackson, George Brown, Peter Doherty, Frank Worthington
Was the loan Neville Southall?
Im not even sure we had him on loan but for some reason think we might have done briefly right at the end of his career.

Well past his best by then, and never played a game for us, but what a keeper he was. One of the top 10 I've ever seen I'd say. |

It was Stephenson, Doherty, Law and Southall If you'd waited 30 minutes, I'd have felt a tinge of pride later this evening. Wish it was countdown and I could show you my bit of paper. |

Wish it was countdown and I could show you my bit of paper. I’ve thought about this a lot lately. If I was on there, and the other player said he’d got an 8, I’d wait until he declared it, then I’d say I’d got the same word. Then sit tight and not show him anything. See if he’d got the bollocks to call me out. |

I actually passed my audition for countdown at kirkstall lane and I have also passed an audition for the chase and master mind but you get sent to casting and wait for a call..... I also had a pointless audition with my ex wife.
The chase audition was a lot harder than the multiple choice mastermind audition.

I also had a pointless audition with my ex wife. The chase audition was a lot harder than the multiple choice mastermind audition. We got an invite to audition for A Place In the Sun several years ago, drove to London for the interview and a 5 minute filming, didn’t get selected to appear ( there were literally hundreds of other couples names on white boards already ) all we got out of it was coffee and biscuits, didn’t even get the cost of our petrol driving there refunded. |
