Just for you guys that think any player past 30 is no good for the team, 40 year old Aaron Wilbraham has just equalised for Rochdale against Newcastle.

And he's two and a half times older than the sixteen year old he replaced at half-time.





When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

Newcastle should have been 3 up by HT then they were rubbish in the 2nd half,

Rochdale unlucky not to win in the end.

Regarding the 40 year old he had a younger man along side him Henderson only 34

A 17 year old passed to the 40 year old.  Young enough to have been his son.  In some parts of  South Lincolnshire could even have been his grandson! 😏

As well as his Nephew and Cousin  !!!


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

a 40 year old scoring a goal in professional football??? but I thought that was impossible, I was under the impression from some on here that every player no exceptions lost their legs the minute they hit 30!
