ex diamond players in the prem?
I was just thinking what ex diamond players have appeared in the premiership since leaving us? If Norwich go up tonight.
I make it be 4 in August
Jackson
Rudy
Ashdown
Folan
Any Others?

I think Jacko is the only Diamonds player if he makes the step up - all of the others were loan players weren't they? So not "proper" ex-Diamonds !!

You are assuming that Jacko will actually play a Premiership game though. It is 4 however already, with Ruddy, Ashdown, Folan and Feuer.toad wrote:I was just thinking what ex diamond players have appeared in the premiership since leaving us? If Norwich go up tonight.

Jacko is most LIKELY to be added to that list and I would probably put an outside bet on both Sharp and Tomlin doing the same within a couple of years.

Tomlin will play for England.

Not Premier League, but Steve Cherry (GK - 18 Appearances in 1997 for R&D) may have played Top Flight football in England. He was at Derby between 1979 & 1984. Derby were in the First Division in 1979/80, but were relegated at the end of that season. He made 77 appearances during his time at Derby, so there is a possibility. I'm trying to confirm

Quite a few players have come to us on the way down who played in the Premiership. Chris Whyte & Alun Armstrong spring to mind.
