What Albion players came to your school in 70s/80s

[catfish]

Mark Lawrenson 79/80 Presenting trophies at St Andrews in Worthing. Remember the crafty fag on the way to KFC for Baked potato lunch (14p) more though.

A fellow St Andrews old boy eh? I remember that day well - it was quite a coup for a crappy old school like ours to get such a big name to come along.

Anyone have Peter O'Sullivan visit their school?
A day in the life of Peter O'Sullivan

(He visits St Peter's School, Cowfold, in this book)

I was there when sully visited and have my photo in the book.

I remember when Howard Wilkinson had a Q & A session at the Salvation Army on Sackville Road, that would have been the late 60's though.

 

[Poyetry In Motion]

Brian Horton and possibly Peter O Sullivan came to Rudyard Kipling, Woodingdean circa May 1979, just after promotion. Division 1 footballers at my school? I could hardly breathe I was so excited!

St. Nicholas Primary in Portslade, we had Steve Penny and Dean Saunders come along for out PE lesson and play in an 11 a side match, probably around 1985/86ish

 

[Durlston]

Kerry Mayo went to Warden Park School like me, a true legend that was Albion through and through.

 

[Muzzy]

Brian 'Nobby' Horton was quite a regular visitor to midweek school fixtures and schools back in the day.

 

[tip top]

We had sammy nelson one year. Funny as i was looking at the photos just yesterday.

 

[Fignon's Ponytail]

Terry Connor was at Fairlight school 1983.....

My mum was secretary at Fairlight back then!
We had Steve Penney & Dean Saunders at Patcham Juniors once too....sure Steve Gatting turned up another time as well.

Not at my school, but Gerry Ryan gave out awards at my football club (Southdown Rovers)

 

[mccraque]

John Crumplin presented something at one of my school assemblies in 1990. I remember that he turned up in a Ford Orion.

There was an autograph session at the end. He point blank refused to sign my book "Football Genius" though.

"I ain't writing that mate..."

spoilsport.

Carden Middle School had (I think) Gary Stevens and Gerry Ryan.

They also did some interviews around the cup final where Steve Foster revealed his favourite drink to be....Fosters.

And I think steve foster after drinking fosters got into trouble once for pissing all over the carpet in the bar at hove greyhounds stadium ( hopefully some one else could confirm this I think it was true or a bullshit story )

Malcolm poskett and someone else whose name escapes me, circa 1978. I kept leaving my class with various excuses to get a glimpse of them.

If it was Ken Tiler we went to the same school. We had Poskett and Tiler.

 

[Seagull on the wing]

He came from our school...played against him and he destroyed us 9-2....one Rodney Feast...signed for Albion but never made the grade In 1964 had a drink with the late Bobby Smith in a casino along the seafront.

 

[BUTTERBALL]

Tony Grealish and Gary Stevens - Cardinal Newman.
