St John Ellis would fall into the above surely.

Sorry Bruce I forgot about Singe



Curious to find out from Marshland when Dean Sampson played for the Dons and which team or teams he played against.



Did you know that the Dons directors told Rodger Millward that he wasn't big enough to become a professional rugby player

Nice one Geoff,

what is it with Doncaster Directors I recall the Rovers doing something similair with a certain Mr Keegan.

Always thought Dean Sampson as a player was a one club man.(Castleford)



Dave Sampson------Yes

Dean Sampson----------- No

Dave Sampson was the coach for the Dons but he didn't play for them or Gt Britain

That's who i suspect Marshland was referring to though Geoff.



Wasn't Dave Sampson the father of Dean?

Yes he is



Marshland refers to him as Deano so you would think he means Dean Sampson, I will be interested to read what Mashland posts for the year Dean played for the Dons & the teams he played against

What about Jamie Thackray?

Don't hold your breath.

Dean Sampsons cousin Lee Sampson turned out for the Dons a few times, but was neither an international or acutally much cop

And Paul Sampson another cousin of Dean---
