Palmer the scorer Man City player and Trafford Saved a late penalty also Man City player. Can you see the connection. four City players in the squad...
Goal credited to Curtis Jones Liverpool for the deflection Palmer played well. Goalkeeper excellent double save from the penalty and deserved (as did the whole team) the luck that the Spaniard wasn’t more composed with the third effort in that passage of play. England didn’t concede a goal in the whole tournament! Good early evening viewing.
Trafford off to Burnley for £15 million by all accounts, and touted for England No 1 in the future! A true northern lad from Accrington Stanley to Bolton to Man City then onto Burnley.
He's from Cumbria, he was on loan for Accrington Stanley then to Bolton helped winning the Papa John Trophy. City have a buy back clause for Trafford.
Cumbria is in the north well it was last time I looked, pretty certain it still is! Aware he was on loan TO AS, and pretty much the rest of the stuff you quoted! Did you watch the game? Aware of the time difference, but you could set the alarm! Tongue in cheek
Managed by an ex-Derby County player, and coached by an ex-Derby County player. By Jove, you're right! There IS a connection!
