    All of them. Could honestly name very few of todays players. Different life stages I suppose. In 1992 I was home and away.

    They were the two I didn't get too. 

    Have looked up the photo now, but wont spoil it.
  • No can not name all of them but question for me is Who is missing from the team that played against Portsmouth
  • Second left top got his first name only
  • No can not name all of them but question for me is Who is missing from the team that played against Portsmouth
    Lee Power - he was on loan from Norwich - it’s still a puzzle to me that he started the game

    Danny Warden - middle row, second from the right?

    Next to Tommy Caton is a struggle for me. I can only think of Lee Harrison but he was a keeper.
  • Second left top got his first name only
    He's the 3rd keeper, but presumably we didn't have another GK kit for him to wear. Bloody Castore  ;)

    Also in those days players stuck around, and each summer instead of half the team changing you'd just have a small number of changes.

    Both correct

    That's the one, but cunningly he's wearing an outfield shirt!

  • Danny Warden only one I didn't have a clue on!
  • Blimey, I honestly didn’t know Tommy Caton was still playing for us when we returned to the Valley.
    Hard to imagine that within 6 months of that picture he died.
  • goes by the name of Biffa Messi

    Yesterday's man...

    I had two copies of this on my bedroom wardrobe door.  One the official poster, one the free one from the Mercury.  I coloured their heads in as they left.  I took it down when Curbs was the only one left.
  • Bloody hell. I still have this poster rolled up in the loft. I forgot that we had John Robinson then. I thought he came along the following season

    He was still in the squad, but hadn't played since January 1991. Really sad as you say, when you realise he died just a few months after that photo was taken.

    Brownie was also out injured for a long time around that time, but as we had Webster, Gatting and Balmer, plus the emerging Primus, we were well covered.
  • Got that shirt somewhere in the house probably worth more now than that team....Great memories from those players.
  • Am I too late to guess?

    I am gonna say it’s Charlton
