Hi Snowie xxx

Phil Eden was a very good player for Wakefield, for a long period.
If you think he was a plodder you obviously didn't watch many games back then.

Why was he mates with your hero Sykes?

Not those steps!

Its his son and he was a good player for wakefield, although he was devastating on a good day when he put his mind to it, he was a average player most of the time but then again that was same as most of the team then..

No climb down. I never really rated the guy as more than average during his playing career. Just confirming that for his size and early career promise he never really did anything I can remember other than the collision with Gibbs.
The comments were really an aside as part of an enquiry to any relationship to Cas's player. Hope that clears things up (Phil?)



I wish I had a quid for every game I've watched since the early sixties! Would estimate that I would have seen every home game that Eden ever played in + many away.
