Who is the player top right in the Wales kit please ?

Gary Sprake. The goalkeeper who literally threw one in the net, in front of the Kop, and famously dived over Chelseas late equaliser in the ‘70 cup final.

The guy far left surely couldn't be a footballer dressed like that,I reckon that's a scally who photo bombed that session

Dark Cloud · Post by **Dark Cloud** » Thu Dec 10, 2020 6:50 pm

The guy in the suit is Hamilton who played for Ipswich before transferring to Everton. (I think?)

Dark Cloud · Post by **Dark Cloud** » Thu Dec 10, 2020 6:52 pm

Dobbo is on there too, plus Duncan McEenzie, Andy King, Kevin Ratcliffe.

Silkyskills1 · Post by **Silkyskills1** » Thu Dec 10, 2020 7:36 pm

Also Mick Lyons, Dave Jones and Ken McNaught.

Steve1956 · Post by **Steve1956** » Thu Dec 10, 2020 7:45 pm

Steve1956 · Post by **Steve1956** » Thu Dec 10, 2020 8:02 pm

Anyone know the scruff on the left?

elwaclaret · Post by **elwaclaret** » Thu Dec 10, 2020 8:03 pm

Evans next to Andy King?
Centre half who played later in the all conquering Villa team.

Edit Mentioned above Ken McNaught

Suspect we’re about the same age Steve so on edge of memory stuff... wait for the previous generation to confirm, but I think it is from other pics I’ve seen of him of that time.

Going back to the Everton team , what a player Duncan McKenzie was to watch .

Didn't Duncan McKenzie once have a 'party trick' when he used to jump over a car width wise?

I wonder if he did it before he played a game,certainly risky can you imagine a manager letting one of his drama queens try that stunt nowadays

The one he used to take the penalty at the Turf in 1988? He shot, he missed, we went to Wembley, Paddy Roche, Paddy Roche.
