ThaiLatic Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 I've just been browsing the current squad list and it struck me that a couple of the players share names with people I know - Chris Taylor and John Thompson. This then lead me to think about other Latics players who have the same (or similar) names of friends and acquaintances. Here , off the top of my head, is the list : Mike Milligan Paul Edwards Ian Wood Neil Adams (my former Headmaster!!) Martin Pemberton David Shaw Andy Gordon Ian Graves Richard Johnson Chris Malkin Brian Parker Does anybody else know people with the same names as Latics players?

Rocky_Latic Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 (edited) Craig Fleming. Andy Barlow Matty Rush Danny Hall Chris Hall Mark Hudson Terry Smith Jason Taylor That I can think of. On the flip side. I was at primary school in '94 with a Mark Hughes - who supported United (though he didnt really care much for football He was more interested in cricket and Brian Lara given his West Indian Origin - *still didnt stop him taking the p*ss for ages and us not being as good a mates for a while afterwards*. ).
