Man Utd and England's Katie Zelem is the niece of Peter Zelem, who was with us as a centre half as we plummeted down the divisions.

I remember him scoring an absolute belter of a volley for us. In front of the North Bank iirc. God knows who it was against though.
Bristol City, won 3-0. Flo looked good that day.

I remember Jostien Flo scoring an equaliser for Sheff U against us in the ****ing rain at Brammall Lane in the last minute. Really hacked me off. He was Havards cousin.

Just discovered two pairs of brothers from my Panini sticker albums of the 1970s and early 80s ; Uli and Dieter Hoeness followed by Klaus and Thomas Allofs :) :) :)

Anyone mentioned the Hazard brothers yet, Eden and Thorgen ?

I remember the first time i heard him speak, it floored me...pure Sydney.
It was even worse when he said his sporting hero was ****** Allan Border!
Same, think it was on Football Italia just after France 98!

On the Italian theme, Pippo and Simone Inzaghi

Sir Don Bradman - possibly the GOAT as a batsman - was part-Italian.

Both loved celebrating a tap in, like it was a last-minute, World Cup winning goal.

I've always imagined that they must celebrate all of life's easy, everyday tasks the same.

Put the bins out, YEEEEAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!
Brush you teeth, COMMMMMEEE ONNNNNNN!!!!
Managing to distribute a perfectly sized sheet of cling-film without the entire roll becoming unusable, GOOOOOOLLLLLAZZZZZZOOOO!!!!

I'm sure their names have probably been mentioned already but has there ever been another case where the manager had two of his sons in the same team, as in the case of Sammy Chapman with Campbell and Cavan Chapman in 1985?
