Gary Bannister scored a few for us but not mentioned very often and Imre Varadi

 

Bannister and Varadi,  "forgotten players"? And someone mentioned Paul Williams as well.

 

I'll just assume you've got amnesia 

[the mighty wednesday]

Kenny Brannigan, Ian Cranson, Colin Walker and Tony Gregory from Wlko's era may be worth a mention.

Norman Curtis. Obviously I remembered.

 

He started his Football League career at a relatively late age, moving from Gainsborough Trinity to Sheffield Wednesday in 1950 when aged 25. Curtis went on to make 324 senior appearances (scoring 24 goals) for Wednesday between 1950–60.^[1] During his time at Wednesday the club experienced three promotions and three relegations between the First Division and the Second Division. He was nicknamed 'Cannonball' as when he took Wednesday's penalties he ran from inside his own half.^[2]

I bet that was brilliant. Why can't we have players like this anymore. A bit like Bob Willis bowling. You just don't see bowlers with long run up amymore

[neo hippy]

He's blue

He's white

He probably thinks we're poo

Was our record signing at the time and I can't remember a single second of him doing anything at all. 

 

 

He had to retire early, had back problems and didn't play much for us.

When i worked in Wakefield from 89-92 he used to come into my shop and have his shoes repaired and keys cut.

He stank of fish.

 

He used to have a fish stall on the old Wakefield outdoor market.

Chris Kamara was a regular too, reyt nice bloke.

Mind you, not as nice as his blonde Mrs.

Just looked at some old squad lists on Wiki and here,s a few that made me go , oh yeah...............

 

John Collins - Left back signed by Len Ashurst from Halifax

Scott Oakes - Another masterstroke from "genius" Pleat

Ian Bailey - Left back under Big Jack, had a bad injury i think

Aaron Lescott - Dark days

Tell him I've never stopped loving him.

Ticker Taylor. Don't know where he came from or where he went but seemed to be instrumental in the promotion from the third division under Charlton.

Then there is the left winger who scored 2 goals at Elland Road in the late 60's to knock Leeds out of the FA Cup after a 1-1 draw at Hillsborough. Can never remember his name.

 

Showing my age I think!

would love to see a pen from him

Who from? Shiner or Curtis? From memory Shiner didn't take penalties. I saw a few from Curtis. Long run-up and thump the ball as hard as possible was his approach.

Nothing to do with thread but while I was looking on youtube for Barricks goal the auto play put this clip on after.

I suppose its relevant how I forgot how Jordan Rhodes could finish

I'd never heard of Rhodes before this match.  But noticed how fast he is on this clip.
