I had it an old programme, but sadly it’s in a box in my lock up Sadly all my old programmes, dating back to '64/'65 were given away by my ex when we had a differing of opinions, FFS. Along with all my LPs, EPs and singles. It's a wonder she didn't give the kids away too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think he was 16 when he made his debut, may have been our youngest ever player at that point. Played with his collar up. Weird I can remember that but cant remember much about most of this season's matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wondering if some of you elder chaps can cast your mind back to the late 60’s early 70’s. Does anyone recall a goalkeeper called John Crossland playing for the Owls either 1st team or reserves? Cheers in advance With no one having heard of him he may have just been a triallist? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ursa Minor Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 Never heard of Crossland .... but talking of obscure goalkeepers, I remember that keeper Trevor Pearson, played four games in March / April 1972. Wednesday had a injury crisis with Grummit and Springett injured and the transfer deadline had passed. So Pearson of Norton Woodseats FC or something played as an amateur.

theowlsman Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 There’s a Wednesday season ticket holder called John Crossland. I used to work with him. Do I get a prize for being nearest? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
