Who did Tes Bramble play for in prem? Was he striker for Newcastle or am i making that up?
No that was his brother Titus. Tes didn't play in the Prem - I was trying to highlight the pair of players with famous brothers - Tes and Titus, Leon and Carl.
I remember Tes, seem to re-call he was a cheating little scumbag against us.

Gary McSheffrey also played here when they beat us 3-0 in the league cup, aswell as Stern John i think.

Danny Shittu played here for QPR in the 3-3.

David Nugent played for Bury here back in 2002, maybe the only England international who has scored for England aswell, to appear at Nene Park in a competitive game?

Nathan Ellington played against us for Bristol Rovers. He looked awesome at Division 3 level.

I recently looked back through a programme from one of the England schoolboys games about 10 years ago, and hardly recognised any of the names (although Michael Malcolm was one of them, I remember him coming on as a sub and looking awful). I think the only current Premiership player from that squad was a certain Wayne Rooney from Everton, although he didn't actually play in the game!
