Only find one picture (quick search) of Jack on promotion day. Difficult to tell for sure if it is the same day - but it was a hot day and he is not wearing a big coat after the game in the photo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Needless to say we didn't bother with him... Tbf he was dogger in that game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I showed him this pic I have of him - and I was amazed that he spotted Peter Beardsley... Ive had this pic for years and Id never once noticed him Anyway - turns out that Big Jack tried to sell Beardsley to us when he was manager at Newcastle - and Eustace recommended him to Wilko. But Wilko didnt want him - said he was too small - and he went to Liverpool instead... Shame eh? Wednesday v Newcastle, December 1982? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Errol Flashman Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 Growing up Beardsley was probably my favourite 'non-Wednesday' player Just a bloke. Being dragged along in a world that moves too quick for it's own good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
