| 1. Author: GG Riva Date: Sun 4th Oct 2026. 10:23 A good mate sent me this; "I was at an underage representative game at EEP between Scotland and England during my sojourn in the Kingdom. I’ve lost the programme but need the teams. Details: Between 1990 and 2005 Under 15? Under 18? Other? I would recognise some names if I saw the teams. I think a Jermaine (Pennant? Defoe?) played for England. Could you narrow down the possibilities and give me the options? I’ll explain why I’m looking for it, too long to write out. Over to you, Clouseau." I`m stumped, but I`d bet good money someone on this forum will bail me out.... 😁  Not your average Sunday League player. Reply |

Made me do an extra search and the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia was renamed Serbia and Montenegro in 2003, then was dissolved in 2006. COYP Post Edited (Sun 04 Oct 11:25) Reply |

| 6. Author: red-star-par Date: Sun 4th Oct 2026. 13:48 The guy has a fairly lengthy window, 1990 to 2005, surely he can remember it a bit better, or have some sort of detail, like, did we have the new stands at the time etc. It could be a schoolboy international from 2005, as mentioned on this link https://forum.wittonalbion.co.uk/t/u18-international/1198?utm_source=chatgpt.com From AI (so could be a load of made up tosh) "On Friday, 25 February 2005, KDM Group East End Park in Dunfermline hosted an Under-18 International schoolboys football match between Scotland and England. Match Overview • Competition: Centenary Shield • Final Score: Scotland Schoolboys 0 – 3 England Schoolboys • Kick-off Time: 7:00 PM • Venue: East End Park, Dunfermline, Scotland England's comfortable 3-0 away victory at Dunfermline helped lay the groundwork for their international campaign during the 2004–05 schoolboy football season." Suppose the other thing is, why does he want to know, after all this time? I remember going to an International Tournament at East End Park, which was some kind of semi-pro event. Scotland, England, Italy and another team. Scotland had Norrie McCathie, John Watson, and I`m sure, excellent lower league players like John Sludden etc. I do seem to remember the Italians in particular had a few players that went on to become big names in Serie A. I`ll need to dig out the programme Post Edited (Sun 04 Oct 13:54) Reply |
