Football quiz: former/future Town players in same game 13:05 - Feb 5 with 546 viewsIllinoisblue

Was watching West Ham v Arsenal on YouTube from October 1984. For West Ham there were two future Town players in Whitton and Goddard, as well as John Lyall (smoking a cig) and Mick McGiven in the dugout. And would have had Phil Parkes except he was injured.

Arsenal had Brian Talbot. So that’s a total of five former/future Town connections .

Is there any other game where there were more than five? **. Not including WBA as I’m sure our ex Albion contingent will skew those numbers **

Paul Mariner would've been at Arsenal at that point so that should have been another. I guess he was injured.

Raphael Meade as well.

Hull v Sunderland in 2023/24 had 5 connections actively involved and would have 6 if Philogene hadn't been injured.

Clarke and Neil playing for Sunderland, Greaves and Delap playing for Hull, Rosenior (former Town loanee) managing Hull.

Would there be any Charlton games, when they may have had Hermann, Holland, D Bent, M Bent, Ambrose amongst any others, or is my memory incorrect in thinking they might've all been there at the same time?

And to add to that, the Sunderland squad for that season also featured:

Márton Fülöp
Danny Collins
Daryl Murphy
Stern John
And an 18 year old Martyn Waghorn

Roy Keane is a bit of a cheat code ...

Ambrose went to Newcastle first didn't he? 2003/04 squad had Hermann, Holland, Lisbie, and of course, Mark Fish! Chris Bart-Williams came to us on loan.

Charlton v Newcastle around that time you'd have potentially still had Dyer and Bowyer at Newcastle as well as Ambrose and the legendary Bobby Robson. Oh, and Titus Bramble. So Newcastle v Charlton circa 2003 time is probably a decent shout.

I make it 8 players involved in this match with Dyer and Lisbie being in the teams' squads that season too.

https://www.skysports.com/foot

There must have been a Colchester match with 8 Town connections on their side alone. This squad had Humes, McGreal, Wayne Brown and David Wright as managers at various points through the season (6 separate managers/caretakers in 1 season!) as well as 6 players in the squad. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/
