Ex-Shrimpers Challenge - Letter F

[MilkeySUFC]

Right, here's my first thoughts:

GK Adam Federici (Takes the spot well ahead of Flappy)
RB Simon Francis
LB George Friend
CB ?
CB ?
RW Francis Laurent
LW Scott Forbes
CM Franck Moussa
CM ? (Has Kane been sold yet....?)
FW Freddy Eastwood
FW Dougie Freedman (I mean the one before he came to us)

Any other suggestions?

Desperately short on central defenders! What position did Franky Banks play? (A little before my time!)

 

[MilkeySUFC]

Oh, Can I have Jean-Francois Christophe for CM?

 

[BLUEBLOOD]

You'll have to ask Naps about JFC Milkey

Don't forget Robins site for a little bit of inspiration

Frank Banks
Graham Franklin

 

[MilkeySUFC]

Positions?

Frank Lampard Snr? Another full-back, according to SUFCDB.

 

[canveyshrimper]

Frank Banks was a right back of many years service, left to join Hull and returned to Roots Hall until he retired.

Graham Franklin was IIRC a left winger signed from Great Yarmouth in the late 60's.

Don't forget Eddie Firmani.
Plus Frank Haydock midfield.

Graham Franklin I thought, was a left of centre striker...I seem to remember chasing him around the cricket grounds. As to GKs, if you don't want Darryl you cannot go far wrong with Neil Freeman, a genial gent. You actually have a Foggo and a Foggon here too, both of whom were ok.

This sounds like Benny Hill gone awry. :stunned:

Nope Rob, was about the time we first met and I think it probably fits more into the stalking category!

 

[Portuguese Shrimper]

The first name on the team sheet should be Eddie Firmani - would get into all time great team (any letter)in my opinion.

 

[MilkeySUFC]

Well, I think 'F' might just be the hardest letter!

Can't come up with one decent CB, let alone a pair! I've got Simon Francis, Frank Banks & Frank Lampard Snr as full-backs. Anyone have any thoughts on who would be the best CB pairing from those? I'd pick Francis as one, simply because I've seen him play there a few times (for better or worse).

 

[Jedi Shrimper]

As others have said, Eddie Firmani is a must upfront (not that I was around then). 'F' is definately a tricky letter.

Looking on sufcdatabase website...
Trevor Fitzpatrick (forward)
Richie Foran (on the wing!)

Think you may have to go 3 at the back!

Thanks for clarifying that, Kay. So was it more like this? :link:

Milkey - SUFC database lists Frank Haydock as a centre-half.

 

[Rob Noxious]

... and Kevin Fallon as a CH who joined us in 1970.

 

[Yorkshire Blue]

Talking of Haydock, could you have ****ing Drewe Broughton.

He once came last in the 3:30 at Haydock.

OK, well, jean-Francois Christophe - the F is part of his first name, but I would say it was J or C. Sorry.

Yes, F for ****ing Drewe Broughton.

 

[BLUEBLOOD]
