Signed shirt - Who's Who?

The Prince-e-Paul

On the occasion of my dad's 80th birthday (already discussed) he has bequeathed to me one of his prized possessions. I was wondering if anyone could help me to decipher the signatures on the shirt. I can see Chris Powell clearly in the middle, but I'm a bit stuck. 

Over to you guys (and girls)!

Giving this a bump. Here's what I reckon so far - most nicked from above, but I've tried to check on Google.



In addition I wonder if it might be Graham Stuart next to Carl Tiler, but the signature doesn't look anything like I've seen online. Also got my doubts about Eddie Youds - think he may have changed hi signature.

Is the one above Shaun Newton Kevin Nicholls?

ParkinsonOut

Sorry @stig but you’ve got some of them wrong -

It’s John Robinson not Sasa Ilic
It’s Matt Holmes not Eddie Youds
It’s Sasa Ilic not Shaun Newton

Also -

Graham Stuart next to Mark Bowen
Bradley Allen next to M of MESH
Martin Pringle to the right of Mendonca
Andy Hunt to the right of Carl Tiler

That leaves 2 which I can’t identify - altho it could be Kevin Lisbie to the left of Danny Mills

I used to collect autographs of the players & have trawled through my collection to help with identification. 

Stig

Great work @ParkinsonOut , thanks for the corrections. Here's an updated one which is hopefully right now. 




So, just two to go now. The one above Sasa which has two possible suggestions Kevin Nicholls (aliwibble) or Kevin Lisbie (ParkinsonOut). And the one above John Barnes which I don't think anyone has had a stab at yet.

Stig

@Henry Irving or @killerjerrylee Does the museum have a collection of autographs that could be referenced to finish this off?  Cheers.

Andy Todd...I might be a season out with him.?
Andy Peterson...bit of a short Autograph tho..?
Gary Poole...?
also thinking Nichols rather than Lisbie...🤔

@cafc999 is our 'graph expert

Could also check the squad list for that season to find players who you don't have a signature for.

Good work by all involved there. 

The one one above Barnes I have seen before but cannot remember without going through my archive. 

Anyone with stuff from this era and want to check then the next time you visit The Valley, go into Bartrams and on the way to the loos is a framed trading card display with signatures.

Nice shirt btw.

Am pretty sure that one of those missing is indeed Kevin Nichols, I have his signature on a program somewhere.

Just wondering if it would be worth having a thread on here of Autograph Examples. From time to time we get these queries on here and it might make things easier if the had a central pace to look. 

I'm thinking of one post for each player where there is one or more example of their autograph. These could be added to as more examples became available. It would take a bit of work, but I'm happy to manage the updates (in fact it might work better as a closed thread).

I thought I'd ask on here first though as I wouldn't want to tread on any toes if the museum have, or are planning, something similar or if people thought it was a naff idea.

I have had to go trawling the internet before looking for signature examples so something like that would have been really helpful

Go for it.

Museum can provide lots of examples.

The one above Barnes isn't Mervyn Day is it? (this is based purely on the fact he was around at the time rather than any knowledge of what his signature might be like)

It's a very good shout tbf.

Stig

I like your thinking, but I'm not sure.  There are a few examples on the internet and they all look like he draws a hamburger with some lettuce falling out the side. That said, it's a big pen on cloth with very limited space.  It might not be the ideal canvass for his gastronomic doodlings.

Definitely him 

aliwibble

Yeah, I think you're right. Back to the drawing board.

Received the away version today, complete with the stench of Youds' body odor. Very helpful photo Stig as I wouldn't have had a clue about most. There's a few extras on it if anyone has any idea, the Matt Holmes one really looks like "eddie" on mine too.

I cannot see Neil Heaney's signature.  I bet he'd not be named in the team if supporters were asked who played in the play-off final.

Great effort from all who contributed.amy thanks.

Thanks, I've just got Neil Redfearn bottom right. Depends who you ask, I think most on here would name him but probably not your "average" fan.

The one to right of Mesh is J. Something, looking through the squad we had 3 J's, Robinson, Fortune and Barnes so leaning towards Fortune.
