Used to be a Dutch lad that played for Arsenal a decade or so a go, Giovanni van Bronckhorst.

you are heading down a dangerous path - imagine the cost of collecting medals associated with past or present gooners -
I think I will stick to my collecting priorities..
just for a laugh I opened pages at random on the Dutton roll and came up with
2198 Dixon 1/13th 3382 W Young 3/60th 437 Henry 88th etc
.. might struggle with Van Persie (maybe in the colonials) or Viera - but I reckon you could make up a pretty good team. Something to do for those dark winter evenings :lol:

van Persie is now a Man U player, however, a good Dutch name should not be too hard to find in the SA colonial units!
From the 24th roll we have:
Sub Lt Campbell, 2003 Adams lots of Davis 2781 Graham 1447 Hayes 128 McDonald 692 Rice and 1768 Wright
Agreed, better give it a miss - an expensive hobby it would be :lol:

well maybe at least we can recreate the famous back four _ i am sure we can find a Winterburn and a Bould - obviously if we want to add a goalie the naval rolls would provide a rich source of Seamen :lol:

I did look SD, couldn't find them. Couldn't find a Rocky Rocastle or an Overmars either, but you never know! :lol:
