48. Alan Hudson (Chelsea) - sticker states Sheffield United
Great Player.
ReplyDeleteHe was, wasn't he. How they've put as a Sheffield United player I'll never know.
DeleteNever played for Sheffield United, spent most of his career with Chelsea and Stoke City.
ReplyDeleteWould have played in the legendary 1970 FA Cup final against Leeds if he hadn't been injured. The original game and the replay were probably the two most brutal games of football ever played in England. These days both teams they would have finished the game with about 5 players. Each team were only allowed one substitute as well.
ReplyDeleteThere certainly were some psychos on the pitch that day. I enjoyed the 1966 final between Everton and Sheffield Wednesday but I do remember more about the 1970 final. After the battle at Wembley a couple of months later we watch Brazil, who were sublime in the World Cup Final against Italy, though there were some crunching tackles in that one too.
