Cannot believe it is over 20 years since we got £500k for him and Paul Robinson that must be equivalent to over a £1million now. My God the club could do with another Kenny Dalglish coming in to buy someone now.

Probably more like £5million in todays money given that the world record fees have increased by more than 1000% in 20 years.eddie-rowles wrote:Cannot believe it is over 20 years since we got £500k for him and Paul Robinson that must be equivalent to over a £1million now.

Retiring this summer. 800+ appearances (nearly 700 of them for Donny Rovers).

I remember at the time wondering whether that transfer was Kenny Dalglish just helping out Hodgy as we were in fairly dire financial straits under Peden (not that we knew that at the time of the transfer)

Really?
I was very young at the time but thought Robinson had burst into the first team and was quite well thought of whilst Coppinger was rated even more highly in terms of potential.

Wonder how many players have played in the same side as a father and son, at different times.Old Git wrote: ↑Fri Mar 05, 2021 9:29 amInteresting footnote in the article that Ricky Ravenhill’s son is also in the Doncaster squad.biccynana wrote: ↑Thu Mar 04, 2021 9:34 pmRetiring this summer. 800+ appearances (nearly 700 of them for Donny Rovers).

Great article on the BBC Sport website about JC and another ex DFC lad called Paul Pomford. Well worth a look

I didn't mean players who'd played in teams with their own dads. I meant a situation such as: Player A played in a Fulchester United side with Player B in 1990 and then Player A played in a Fulchester side with Player C in 2010, and Player B was Player C's dad.lo36789 wrote: ↑Tue Mar 30, 2021 8:47 amImagine quite a few - just off the top of my head...biccynana wrote: ↑Fri Mar 05, 2021 9:27 pmWonder how many players have played in the same side as a father and son, at different times.Old Git wrote: ↑Fri Mar 05, 2021 9:29 amInteresting footnote in the article that Ricky Ravenhill’s son is also in the Doncaster squad.biccynana wrote: ↑Thu Mar 04, 2021 9:34 pmRetiring this summer. 800+ appearances (nearly 700 of them for Donny Rovers).

Did Sergio Ramos play with Zidane senior and junior at Real?
