Guess the players.

[ManilaWolf]

Just for fun.... Guess the players.

16 relatively recent images of 16 former players.
You have about 10 seconds viewing time of each.

How many identities did you guess correctly?
Are there some you still don't know?

Awesome Manila thanks for that,the years have just fled by.

 

[Vietnam Wolf]

This is realy great Manila [I was actually there last Wednesday / Thursday [at least I was in the NAIA on the way to Cebu].

George Berry and John de Wolf were the two most surprising ones for me.

 

[The Professional]

Bloody Hell. Some of those are scary, makes me feel so old.

What about Paul Bradshaw? Once a good looking bloke!

Danny Hegan seems to have survived his drink problem though.

Great thread.

 

[arctic rime]

I got 10... BRADSHAW LOOKS UNWELL.

 

[Vietnam Wolf]

I think Paul Bradshaw is quite sick ... I'm sure I read something a few months ago ..

 

[Dorset DeWolf]

Who's no.1?

 

[Ponty]

Darren Simpkin?

 

[Brizzlewolf]

Fantastic!

 

[Scallywolf]

Who's no.1?

And no. 6

 

[Boss Hogg]

agree about Bradshaw, he looks really ill. Hope he is ok, anyone know?

 

[Ponty]

And no. 6

Jim McCalliog

 

[Ponty]

agree about Bradshaw, he looks really ill. Hope he is ok, anyone know?

Don't know about now but I do know he was a top keeper. In other times he'd have played for England but we had Shilton and Clemence around when he was playing.

 

[Scallywolf]

Jim McCalliog

He's no. 5

 

[Sheriff Woody]

Darren Simpkin?

Darren Simkin is correct, I always thought he looked like Micky Pierce from Only Fools And Horses.

God he was $$$$......... but probably a better full back than we currently have!

 

[Ponty]

He's no. 5

Doh! I must have rewound too far.

 

[Chungster]

No 3? I shouldn't be struggling but i am. I keep wanting to say Ernie Hunt but it can't be because of the strip.

 

[Muscat]

The only ones who aren't well before my time are Mountfield, Darren Roberts and De Wolf.

 

[arctic rime]

He's in Thailand now with brian jacks . ( mickey not Darren ) !

Is it John Farley? He goes back to the late 70's.

 

[arctic rime]

Apparently had a huge todger ? Frightened the life out of john McAlle .

Before you ask George Gavin told me !

 

[Chungster]

John ******* Farley.

God bless you.

I wouldn't have slept.

 

[Scallywolf]

John ******* Farley.

God bless you.

I wouldn't have slept.

I wasn't 100% sure but I assume from your reply I'm correct.

By the way Ernie Hunt isn't amongst the 16.

Sleep tight!

 

[Chungster]

I wasn't 100% sure but I assume from your reply I'm correct.

Sleep tight!

I'd got all the rest and was just coming up with Hunt out of desperation even though the photo indicated that it was way after his time at the club. As soon as you came up with Farley I could place him.

Thanks again.

Cheers Chungster.

But who is no 6?

 

[Chungster]

Cheers Chungster.

But who is no 6?

Bernard Shaw

 

[Scallywolf]

Bernard Shaw

Thanks for that. Remember him well as a good full back for us.

He was caught up in the bribery allegations against Don Revies 'dirty Leeds' after we beat them to stop them winning the old 1st division all those years ago.

I'll sleep tight now.

Good team effort!

 

[Macman]

The likes of Paul Bradshaw, Peter Daniel and Norman Bell were part of the Wolves team that were just breaking up when I started watching them. So sad seeing these instantly memorable names popping up, yet most of today's team are instantly forgettable.

 

[Sutton Wolf]

Cheers Chungster.

But who is no 6?

Bernard Shaw
Chungster beat me to it ,he must be even older than me .

Couldn't agree more. Lets hope this current shower will also break up.

They're not in the same league as some of the players shown on this thread!

 

[Chiswick_Wolf]

Sorry to bump this up again, has anyone got a full list of answers for this? I sent it to my Dad and Uncle thinking they'd know more of them and they now want to see who was right or not. Ta!

 

[Big Nosed Wolf]

Scariest thread I have seen. What the passing of time does to us all

Interesting though.

Managed all but a couple.

 

[morosewolf]

Only got 4! Should have got Simkin, Bradshaw, Daniel, Bell and Sunderland as well. The ealy 70's ones were before my time, although I recognised Parkes as he does a lot of the old player stuff

 

[ManilaWolf]

Ah! Sorry, I did mean to post the answers some time ago. I realise that it's not so easy, especially for the younger fans.

The answers are here in this image file that I prepared some time ago: -

Thanks to those who complimented my efforts.
I might make another similar video because I certainly did enjoy making this one. The good memories came flooding back.

 

[Vietnam Wolf]

Please do Manila ... It was a great piece of work, well done mate. Mabuhay (mine's a Red Horse Grande).

 

[Essex Wolf]

There were a handful that really threw me but a brilliant topic.

Red Hoss... Now there's a very economical way to blow yer own bloody head off. :vollkommenauf:

 

[Edgmond Wolf]

Cheers Manila, great post mate
