Ok there have been loads of connections between our two clubs over many years, so let's have your names and lists of players/managers/coaches who were involved with both. The 30th anniversary of our FA Cup game got me thinking.
(And no thanks I don't want anyone on here saying they support both either )
Players listed can be those who started off their careers at Wolves but never played in the first team.
For starters players - Mark Buckland, Butler & Stobart, Ashley Vincent, Jon Flatt, Hungarian bloke name I forget, Mel Eves, Scott Brown, JJ Melligan, just a few off the top of my head.
Managers/coaches - John Ward, Keith Downing, Jim Barron, Ally Robertson, Pat Mountain.
So come on, join in for a bit of fun.

Probably only beaten by Shawcross in the violent play stakes in the Prem. Should have been banned from the game.CTFC03 wrote:Karl Henry, he was someone who I knew would go and play higher, did well in his short time with us.

Was his first or second game for us when he hit the post after good play. I always felt that lead him down the path of poor finishing, whereas had he scored he would have been confident in tucking away further chances.Robin wrote:God I remember Mark Jones he looked excellent up until the point of scoring, he ran around, quick, looked tricky I was a bit disappointed we didn't extend the loan but then never heard of him again after that.
