Craig 6302 Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 ..... much much worse! These pics made me shudder. To think we could have had Schmeichel for a lesser amount than this clown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig 6302 Posted May 19, 2009 Author Share Posted May 19, 2009 Didn't he make the 1990 World Cup squad btw? ;) Aye - walked away with a bronze medal. Quite how I haven't got a fucking clue. He was a calamity and a half - I was amazed we got all but £100k back for him too! Chelsea were fucking mugs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest alex Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Was it Seaman? Suppose it would have been. Gary Bailey was shite as well and he went to at least one WC too I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 34422 Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 I remember a lad in the juniors wrote an essay about how Martin Thomas was his hero. Assistant National Goalkeeping Coach at the FA these days apparently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wasn't.... played a couple of games IIRC 88/89? No chance. He was definitely still there - I remember all 4 of them being on the team photo. EDIT: ...He left Bristol completely in 1983 to join Newcastle United for £50,000. Thomas appeared regularly for Newcastle as they won promotion to the top-flight in 1984. He was the club's first choice goalkeeper for the 1985–86 and 1986–87 seasons. In September 1986, he won his first and only international cap for Wales, in a European Championship qualifier against Finland. After a spell on loan to local rivals Middlesbrough, Thomas was sold to Division Two Birmingham City for £75,000 in October 1988....

Guest alex Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Understudy to Kevin Carr, need I say more? Played a handful of games the season before I think Craig, which is probably what you remember. I think Kelly was number one that season (i.e. 87/88). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Kelly was number one that season (i.e. 87/88). He was, good keeper too, bit small but tremendous reflexes. His major flaw was he could never reach the halfway line with his kicks.
