Guest alex Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 Steve 'Pat Butcher' BruceLee Clark There was a lad called Tony Dinning who didn't make it at NUFC but who played for Stockport (I think.) Thats about it, to be honest. (That I know of). I've played football with his brother before and my Dad knows his Dad pretty well from their playing days too. He did go to Stockport and he went to a few other clubs after that. He had a reasonable career. I think he was at Wigan for a while when they were in the lower leagues.

Stockport was the only one I could think of, I knew he'd been elsewhere. I've played against Steve Watson and Robbie Elliott when I was younger, played against Tony as well no doubt.

PaddockLad 17665 Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 No footballers, went to a rugby school....various semi famous Scotland & British Lions players went there... Brian Redpath, head coach at Gloucester Alan Tait, head coach at Newcastle Falcons...went to rugby league whilst working as a roof tiler in 1987 having appeared at the first rugby world cup, then came back to union in the mid nineties and scored the winning try in the series winning second test in South Africa in 1997. No one else has acheived that as far as I know, he's a bit of a rugby ledge. John Jeffrey, from the same village as me and Justin Molotnikov,little known film director...cine buffs may have seen his feature "crying with laughter" from a couple of years back, or more than likely not : http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1098790/ Whoever said Clapton wins, unless Rob W was at school with his alter ego, God Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can have him. Bono is the most famous so far, Bono or Sting. Chris Kamara's niece was in my year so it's possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom_NUFC 0 Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Lee Clark St*ve Br*ce Lee Hall - (wrote Billy Elliott) There was a lad in my year was in Byker Grove (he was in PJ and Duncan's band) - he got suspended for drawing a picture of two of maths teachers bumming (He was a canny artist). Can't think of any ore off hand, though there have been a few other footballers who were at NUFC but were released and played in the lower and non leagues.

Guest alex Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 The lass who married Evan Dando as well (and she was at my 18th). Not that famous but I think she qualifies after looking at Fish's list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
