Can anyone identify the player (s)?
Spotted recently on the side a of truck.............

In a post on Facebook, Waggy said he thinks it is Andy Binns in the EDF Cup Final (where we stuffed Leeds).

It does look like Binnsy but I don't think it is the EDF Final. That was a pretty warm day and I do not recall the white baselayer.

According to pitchero, it was a blackheath player. They play in a very similar strip to .ose

'Club' do play in red and black, but those socks and shorts do look very familiar ...

Pretty sure it's us, there is what would appear to be the Specsavers sponsor on the right sleeve of a chap in the pack. Having looked at photos from 08-09 season we also had piping on the shorts and socks the same as those - if it is Blackheath they must have inherited that kit...

[studleyken]

Definitely not Binnsy. Just looked up photos on Google and he was not wearing a base layer. There is also a sponsor on the back of the shirts in the photos. Brought back great memories though.

[nev2214]

Shorts and socks are different to ours. We had black socks with red hoops at the top for the EDF final

[CJB1]

Can we stop assuming it was the EDF final? There are plenty of photos from other matches showing Binnsy wearing a white base layer, and with that style of number on his back.

The font used on the 15 is consistent with that used on the shirt during the 2006/2007 season. So too is the Specsavers logo on the sleeve

Shorts and socks too. So it is us. However, Binnsy seems to have preferred black for his base layer when he wore one. Who might have played FB and worn white? Was it Ollie Thomas?

[willbassett]

Looks like Binnsy to me. I'm guessing but Bress and Ollie may have played full-back around that time but doesn't look like either. Plus Ollie tended to wear flashier boots.

If it's as far back as 2006 then it's Bress allright, but Adrian, not Nathan! Adrian definitly wore the white under the 15 shirt.

[CJB1]

You mean Ally, not Adrian, I think.

However, it's 2006-07 season, and Ally B had gone (back?) to Stour by then.

[londonexile]

I suppose someone with too much time on their hands could trawl through all the 06/07 old match reports and do a bit of elimination. Any takers? :-)

Whoops, thaanks for the correction. Adrian wore a car-parker jacket that season
