Who was the safc left back, from pennywell



I was in the same year as these two lads. I never played for the school team as I found there were clicks all over and I was a bit shy back then. I did however play in the local leagues and did come up against one lad who played centre half for the school and I tore him a new arse. I’ve also scored past Alan Hope so I must be class.
Alan Hope went on to run Pennywell under 18s, we were class like. But none of us went to make it. Derek Hope was our centre half. Davey Corner used to come and watch us.
 
I don’t think he’s dead mate. Do you mean “How old IS he now?”

(I recall the player, -unusually for me as I have an appalling errr, thing you remember with - who I thought would go on to great things, and the tackle - right in front of me in the Clockstand. It was appalling, it was cynical and it was despicable)
Badly worded reply mate. Meant how old is he?
 
Played in the same school team as smiter class above knew hopey as well both class acts both could have gone a lot further
Also remember going up to watch the late Gary breeds play for England schoolboys against Scotland at st mirren
