Hirstys 12th Pint Posted June 20, 2022 Posted June 20, 2022 As we all know Reesh loves a 'tainted' player. Don't think we have had many but it got me thinking who was in this list during my time watching Wednesday and came up with the following Simon Stainrod Imre Varadi Earl Barrett Jon Paul McGovern Chris Marsden Danny Baath Keith Treacy Marvin Johnson Who have I missed ?

Paul from Wisewood Posted June 20, 2022 Posted June 20, 2022 Doesn't sit right with me, signing ex pigs 1 Quote

mkowlthesexynewversion Posted June 20, 2022 Posted June 20, 2022 See I still consider it is 10 times worse to have a friend that is a Blade than worry about someone who played for them I was very popular among our pond life neighbours on Twitter re this Fitzpatrick golfer chap Quote
MPB Posted June 20, 2022 Posted June 20, 2022 Signing a player directly from then is the ultimate cardinal sin...... Quote
cheat Posted June 20, 2022 Posted June 20, 2022 (edited) Bernard Shaw from the 70s is the only other I can think of from my supporting life. We might well have missed some, but it’s surprising how few there are. Going the other way there’s loads. And most of the tainteds only had brief spells with United really, the exceptions being the aforementioned Shaw, and Stainrod I guess. Edited June 20, 2022 by cheat Quote
bricat Posted June 20, 2022 Posted June 20, 2022 Terry Curran Jeff King Gangster Madine Earl Barrett. Carl Bradshaw Brian Marwood David Ford Wilf Rostron. Franz Carr Alan Warboys Leon Clarke..Neil Ramsbottom Dean Windass Richard Creswell Derek Geary Owen Morrison Quote
Reesh Posted June 20, 2022 Posted June 20, 2022 They became tainted Bri not tainted then redemption. Quote
Kiwi Owl Posted June 20, 2022 Posted June 20, 2022 Paul Heald - the keeper we had on loan from Wimbledon I think started his career at that lot Quote
Kingys Ginger Mullet Posted June 20, 2022 Posted June 20, 2022 (edited) Another to become tainted was Tony McMahon. Paul Stancliffe, Wednesdayite who grew up around Hillsborough, released by us as a youth and went on to captain that lot. Edited June 20, 2022 by Kingys Ginger Mullet Quote
MPB Posted June 21, 2022 Posted June 21, 2022 So we've never directly signed anybody from them? Shaw was signed from Wolves(?)... Quote
bricat Posted June 21, 2022 Posted June 21, 2022 We had almost signed Jimmy Hagan from them. The player changed his mind at the last minute because he was afraid.that.would upset the piggy fans.. Alan Hodgkinson. was appointed as goalkeeper coach after years at the Sty. Quote

Sheffieldblue Posted June 21, 2022 Posted June 21, 2022 Not a player, but john Harris came and worked under Big Jack Quote

owl71 Posted June 21, 2022 Posted June 21, 2022 Nobody’s mentioned Howard Wilkinson. I don’t think he actually played a first team game for them, but did Heneghan? Quote
