fanimal Posted 2 November, 2010 Share Posted 2 November, 2010 Of the squad that played that 2 legged final only one player remains at the club, we know 7 others have gone on to clubs above us now, but such a shame that more did not stay. Ironically of the Ipswich squad, I could not find any of those listed on the programme in their current squad! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disconnect Posted 2 November, 2010 Share Posted 2 November, 2010 What was the full squad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lighthouse Posted 2 November, 2010 Share Posted 2 November, 2010 The Team for the final was: McNeil Cranie - Richards - Wallis Taylor - Rudd Dyer - James - DMG - Sparv Walcott - Best Subs: Lallana, Critchell, Condesso, Bale Not sure if that's exactly the possitions they played, but those are the players.

Marsdinho Posted 2 November, 2010 Share Posted 2 November, 2010 (edited) Whatever happened to Condesso? Edit: Just googled it Edited 2 November, 2010 by Marsdinho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minty Posted 2 November, 2010 Share Posted 2 November, 2010 McNeil Richards - Cranie - Rudd - Wallis-Taylor Walcott - James - Sparv - Dyer DMG Best ... I seem to recall. We used to play a fluid 4-5-1/4-3-3 formation under Georges Prost, and played some sublime football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chocco boxo Posted 2 November, 2010 Share Posted 2 November, 2010 Best, awful player IMO, funny how Newcastle think he is one of their worst signings and it was his signing which could have or could still cost Hughton his job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
farawaysaint Posted 2 November, 2010 Share Posted 2 November, 2010 Amazing crop of players when you consider how many of them have gone on to succesful, (or relatively in some cases,) careers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint-scooby Posted 2 November, 2010 Share Posted 2 November, 2010 Did Rudd play, seem to remember he has long term injury Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st alex Posted 2 November, 2010 Share Posted 2 November, 2010 7 players in teams above us in England, but at least a couple have gone abroad. Never really understood why Villareal signed Condesso, he's dropped down to the 3rd division in Spain now, playing for UD Logroñés. Looks like Tim Sparv has done pretty well though, 11 caps for Finland and playing regular foorball for Groningen in the dutch top division.

SuperSAINT Posted 2 November, 2010 Share Posted 2 November, 2010 Was the game on SKY? I seem to recall watching it. Was watching Goals on sunday and good to see how Matt Mills has developed. He's now Reading's captain. Was gutted he, and Dexter both left for peanuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benjii Posted 2 November, 2010 Share Posted 2 November, 2010 Best, awful player IMO, funny how Newcastle think he is one of their worst signings and it was his signing which could have or could still cost Hughton his job. Well, he's clearly a Championship level striker so if that makes him "awful" then fair enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

georgeweahscousin Posted 2 November, 2010 Share Posted 2 November, 2010 Never rated Best or Cranie, but my mate who supports Coventry raves about both of them. But that would be a pretty good side if it played together now. Although I think defensively it would struggle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smirking_Saint Posted 2 November, 2010 Share Posted 2 November, 2010 Mills was one of the departures that annoyed me the most as I could see he would turn out to be quality. Mills always looked the part, i was gutted when we lost him so so cheaply. Dexter was also a qaulity player, i always thought DMG would be a decent midfielder and not a striker.

Also, watching the highlights show, it's annoying to see how Antonio is doing for Reading. I know he's history to us now, but I'd still love to see him back one day.

Players like Monk & Brian Howard had to drop down a level though in-order to get enough games to build themselves up. We were in the prem at the time when they left, I think. Mills & Blackstock were just annoying because we were in decline when they left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bender Posted 2 November, 2010 Share Posted 2 November, 2010 Did we win? No but we deserved to if I remember rightly. Remember watching it feeling gutted coz we had been relegated from the Prem after 27 years a few days earlier. Was kidding myself that winning the yoof cup would somehow make me feel better.

hamster Posted 3 November, 2010 Share Posted 3 November, 2010 So, looking at that bunch we can sort of understand why Rupert Lowe put so much faith in the youth experiment. Maybe in time it would have paid dividends? Mybe if we'd had the luxury of time added to Prost's ability to develop at that level we might have kept the conveyor belt running?
