Steve Chettle played in the Gazza final in 1991. He had a fairly forgettable loan spell with us. I think that he played in a thumping at Maine Road, one of the most one sided games I’ve seen us involved in.
Who could forget Derek Mountfield 1984 v Watford. League champion and cup winners cup as well
His return to fitness denied another future Saddler, Neil Pointon, a place in the 1986 FA Cup final.
God how times have changed, real class players how spoilt we were
Barry Horne won the FA Cup in 1995 with Everton… 6 years later, he played his one and only game for the Saddlers, in a 3-0 win at Northampton.
So he started as many F A Cup finals as he did games for us?
Chris Baird with Southampton.
Scott Dann, when Palace somehow conspired to lose to Jesse Lingard.
Andrew Barrowman played in a Scottish Cup Final…
Ian Turner with Southampton
Ahem…started the thread with him and John Osborne.
If that counts, Roberto Martinez won the Copa del Rey with Real Zaragoza.
Kevin McDonald was in the Liverpool team, too.
Smartarse.
Lee Sinnott. 1984 for Watford against Everton.
Albert Aldridge. 1888 for WBA. Really digging now.
David Copeland. 1901 for Tottenham. More digging.
And Ronnie Eklund won the MLS Cup…
Howard Riley played in the 1961 and 1963 Finals for Leicester, losing both.
Alun Evans.
