Cole Not Gas

Recommended Posts

In proper Owls pub on Saturday talking ex-Sheff Wed connections and there are a few. Danny Wilson and Pearson both ex Wed players and i thought Pemberton was the 3rd ex City manager ..but got it wrong as he was a Blade! Apparently DW and NP played for years in the same team 

Any more connections to both clubs?

I had no recollection of the name, but Googled him and then it clicked.
45 games ???? I wish I had a real memory that worked.

Don’t worry. Easily forgotten. You didn’t miss much. He wasn’t very good. 
I was actually banned for the majority of that period anyway so didn’t enjoy the full pleasure of his abilities.

Not a direct connection but he was a bit of a City fan and from Bristol - Stuart Jones.

Was GK for Weston Super Mare at the time and was told on Deadline Day in 1998 to get to Sheffield as Ron Atkinson had put a £20k bid in for him, he couldn't believe it. Never made a 1st team appearance in 2 years there but was loving life.
