Fuck my knickers - 30 years ago  Where have we been and what have we been upto all these years! I know I know - I was at the Blythe Spartans and Nuneaton Borough games too  Going to the Notts game tonight kind of reminded me of the Division 2 days - where the games were so low key and the banter was superb.... Sharing a pint or two with Bristol Rovers fans away, the long and dreary trips back home on a cold Tuesday night from Gigg Lane... Pissing through a hole in a wall at Saltergate.... Ahhh, the true British football romance.... all away from the glare of the wanky media spotlights.... Lol - saying that though, I can't wait to get started in the Prem now. |

Do you want when they first got capped, or when we last had a capped player in the side ???
Think Shilts left in 1977 ?

When Stoke City last had a player in the first team for England. I'd have a guess it was Shilt's - without Googling it like  |

So it must be Shilts then? OK, who was the last Stoke player to SCORE for England? FFS - That's getting a bit drastic maybe? Lol  |

Mike Sheron got the golden boot award at the Midland 5 a Side finals last week. Looks an owd bloke now but can still bag a goal or two. SOS should have lined up for England. Sheron & Steino - they were class  |

The answer to your question, PMac, is 23 years.

There you go....... I knew Joe In Oz would simply state the answer. And yes, it's 23 years then.... What a great coincidence Potterlog that we get into the Prem at the same time since Chamberlain played for England Cheers lads ;D |

Luxembourg 0 v 9 England and I think Chambo got a goal. Thats my recollection anyway.
It was mid 80's cause I was a teenager listening to it on the radio in the afternoon while I tiled my mum's bathroom.

I went the Luxembourg game with the Stoke bus that used to run matches to most of Englands home games . It was organised by a chap called Ken Marek ( what happened to him?). Chambo came on second half and set up one goal and scored one himself . It was great at the time because all the Spurs fans around us were giving us grief about Chambo saying they had " never heard of him" etc etc. They sure new his name after the game. happy days ;D
