Josh Lambo currently plays in the NFL as a Placekicker. He was with the San Diego Chargers and Jacksonville Jaguars, but currently plays with Pittsburg Steelers. Lambo was a professional footballer with FC Dallas and on loan at FC Tampa Bay as a goalkeeper and also played for the United States U17 team.
At the age of 15, he spent the summer training with Everton F.C. during their U.S. tour in 2006, on the recommendation of US international Tim Howard and was invited to Finch Farm before being offered a professional contract, on the provision that he could secure an EU passport, due to his Greek heritage. After leaving FC Dallas he went on trial with D.C. United and Sheffield United in January 2012. After turning down offers from the NASL and the chance of becoming a MLS pool goalkeeper, he retired from professional soccer at the age of just 21.

J. Baines - Football Cards (99) - Saturday Night and Football Sun

Football Cards
J. Baines
20,000+ cards

J. Baines was not the first to sell football and cricket cards in the North of England in the late 1880's but he was the most prolific and the business survived into the 1920's. I've always been interested in the various issuers and the businesses that took advantage of craze of collecting football and cricket cards. I thought I would delve into my database and shows some of these interesting cards from a bygone age.
