Footballers with University degrees

[Wienergull]

The only ones that spring to mind:

Steve Coppell
Steve Heighway
Brian Hall
Alan Smith - not the Leeds one
Barry Horne
Gerry Fell - early '70s BHA, or did I dream this (the degree, not the player)?
Charlie Oatway - University of Life

Any more you can think of?

 

[Jambo Seagull]

Pat Nevin, I think.

 

[Marc]

Tony Adams

 

[Barnet Seagull]

Phil Whelan

 

[Barnet Seagull]

Arjan de Zeeuw sp?

 

[Jason Speaks]

Tony Adams

Adams doesn't have a degree.

He was on my mates Foundation sports science course at Brunel last year and didn't transfer to the main course this year.

I think Lee Chapman had a degree.

 

[Marc]

Adams doesn't have a degree.

He was on my mates Foundation sports science course at Brunel last year and didn't transfer to the main course this year.

I think Lee Chapman had a degree.

aahh, I seem to remember he was doing something along those lines.

 

[CHAPPERS]

Graeme Le Saux (probably)

 

[Icy Gull]

Graeme Le Saux (probably)

No he just reads the Telegraph instead of the Sun

 

[Lammy]

Gazza?

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

Robbie Earle must be about the plummiest and most articulate footballer ever to have donned a pair of football boots. The intellectual chasm between him and Vinnie in the Dons changing room must have been immeasurable.

 

[Icy Gull]

I believe Ian Dowie does

 

[edna krabappel]

Believe it or not....the Elephant Man Dowie at Palace has a degree, as does Steve Palmer at QPR.

Dowie presumably has a Masters in Ugly Studies.

 

[Sonic The Hedgehog]

Steve Palmer (QPR). Used to play for the Albion's youth teams before going to Cambridge University.

 

[bhaexpress]

Roy Keane - Third Degree.

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

Cunningham, Regis and (was it Brendan Batson?) - the Three Degrees.

 

[Westdene Seagull]

Steve Palmer (QPR). Used to play for the Albion's youth teams before going to Cambridge University.

He is Brighton born and bred ( went to the same schools as Steve and his sister ).

When he was at Watford his nickname was The Prof apparently.

 

[Marshy]

Matt Lawrence of Millwall, lives in Burges Hill.

 

[edna krabappel]

I've seen Matt Lawrence in the pub with Watto.

Please don't tell me he has the brains to study for a degree? I would be stunned.

 

[Marshy]

Work with his wife, shes fine...
