reddogkev Posted April 9, 2019 Report Share Posted April 9, 2019 Random thread I know, more like just a random thought, but anyone else feel like Sharp has been around for ever? As far back as I can recall, I seem to remember Billy Sharp scoring goals. It might just be me, but I honestly wouldn't be surprised if you said Sharp was around playing for the blades in the mid nineties. Any other players who seem to have never-ending careers, well, in your memory at least? Random thought over... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BS15_RED Posted April 9, 2019 Report Share Posted April 9, 2019 The first I heard of him was back in 2005 when he signed for Scunthorpe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would like to see a record of his games against us, although I’m sure it will be depressing reading, with the exception of recent results against Sheffield United! my mate can’t stand him..... if you’re reading this Mark!

Berkshire Red Posted April 9, 2019 Report Share Posted April 9, 2019 Lee cattermole is still a regular for Sunderland I believe. Seems a long time ago he was playing for Middlesbrough in the premier league Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devoncider Posted April 9, 2019 Report Share Posted April 9, 2019 our (ex) very own striker Jon Stead has been around as long as I can remember - when he was a teenager knocking in goals for Hudds in the early 00s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eardun Posted April 9, 2019 Report Share Posted April 9, 2019 I always think of our league one promotion season in 2006-07 when I think of Sharp - he got about 30 for Scunthorpe that season and they were champions. So yes he’s been around for ever! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BS2 Red Posted April 9, 2019 Report Share Posted April 9, 2019 Jamie Cureton is somebody that has been playing football forever (with a break between 1996 and 2000). I just looked him up and according to Wikipedia he is still playing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would've have been early 2000's I recall signing a young Leo Messi for Woking on Championship Manager circa 04/05 for under £200k. I wonder whatever happened to him, someone mentioned the other day he was still playing football albeit probably in some mickey mouse league abroad but fair play if he's still going Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin phantom Posted April 9, 2019 Admin Report Share Posted April 9, 2019 Where was it he played against us quite early one season, think he scored a last minute penalty for the home side Seem to remember him running back to our away end and City players dragging him away from celebrating infront of us Please tell me I didn't imagine this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
