I realized yesterday that I saw Cherchesov play for Russia v Italy in Euro 96 and Southgate play for Villa at Oakwell in 1997-98.

Loads must have seen Martinez? I am sure even I have.
I had to double check to see whether Cissé was in the squad for the Portsmouth V Cardiff City FA Cup final but he had left by then.Last edited by Bored Of Education; 17-06-2018, 18:15.

I definitely was at Scunthorpe 1-0 Swansea in October 2004, in which the internet tells me Martinez played 90 minutes.
Come to think of it, he was at Alex Calvo Garcia's testimonial around that time too.

I checked on both of those too and was sure I must have seen Martinez but can find no evidence of it, think he only faced Cardiff once for either Swansea or Wigan and I wasn’t there for it.Last edited by Ray de Galles; 18-06-2018, 20:39.

Roberto Martinez was a quality player at Chester, despite his advancing years, and I also saw him a number of times for Wigan, and seem to recall he may have got sent off twice against Chester. I also saw him playing for Swansea in 2004. Also saw Gareth Southgate once, in a League Cup match at Aston Villa in 1999, and saw Fernando Hierro in two of Spain's games at Elland Road in Euro 96.
I think Roberto Martinez may be only the second ex-Chester player to subsequently turn up at the World Cup Finals (Leo Bertos being the first). It's just a shame he never took Graham Barrow with him to Belgium as one of his coaches. That would have been the best thing I've witnessed in any World Cup, if it had happened!
