RUREADY2ROLL Posted April 23, 2011 Posted April 23, 2011 I was at his debut Denn, I think there was you, me and Ruth, and that was it....still remember all the prisoners shouting from the jail next door, and I seem to remember Neil getting 2 and The King the other Remember going to Swansea for a league cup tie and all the prisoners were shouting then. We drew 1-1 and I think it was a Whatmore equiliser; stuffed them in the replay at Burnden Also remember the Friday night game when we beat the scum 3-0 and I think he bagged a brace then as well with Frankie hitting the other. Great night in my local at Daubhill after.

RUREADY2ROLL Posted April 23, 2011 Posted April 23, 2011 one of the best games in a white shirt in my memory was whatmore in the cup win at derby he was magnificent that night 2-1 Cant remember who got the goals though Big following that night and we watched the highlights of the Manure vs Everton quarter on the way home
Krimzon Posted April 24, 2011 Posted April 24, 2011 (edited) Didnt Neil Whatmore play in all four divisions for us which was some kind of record at the time ? Anyone ? Edited April 24, 2011 by waddy256
natsdad Posted April 24, 2011 Posted April 24, 2011 hope some others on here had the pleasure of his company at Wembley......what a guy, he was sat at the side of me in his original 1977 number 8 umbro shirt,(most ex players would want to be in some swishy executive club in a fancy suit) his son and grandson both had their faces painted in Wanderers colours...absolute class from one of our all time greats, he is still living in Mansfield and working for the water board, remember seeing him at Cardiff both times, and lots of home games over the years...a Wanderer for life saw john thomas in greyhound.
Whites man Posted April 24, 2011 Posted April 24, 2011 Didnt Neil Whatmore play in all four divisions for us which was some kind of record at the time ? Anyone ? He came on loan (for a third time) in 1987 but didn't play so he cannot have played for us in the 4th Division. BTW Sean Davis played for Fulham in all 4 divisions, there can't be many more who have done it.

Guest Biff Posted April 24, 2011 Posted April 24, 2011 Who were we playing when a back pass got stuck in the mud and Whatmore was the first to react and scored.
Casino Posted April 24, 2011 Posted April 24, 2011 bristol city on a sunday? probably not he scored a stunner against plymouth he was running towards the lever end and the ball from midfield was a little short and was bouncing behind him he managed to backheel the ball from behind him over his head and past a couple of defenders towards goal into teh box, beat a couple more, took his time, a bit like that okocha one in germany, before putting it away
DirtySanchez Posted April 24, 2011 Posted April 24, 2011 BTW Sean Davis played for Fulham in all 4 divisions, there can't be many more who have done it. Ian Ashbee for Hull. And he's in an even smaller minority in that he captained them in all four divisions as well
