peterinfrance Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Does anyone remember Charlie Pugh? He was in goal when I first started to support Wednesday in the 50's. This was about the same time as Albert Quixall was transferred to Manchester United for a then record fee of £45,000, if my memory serves me correctly. Anyway I am sure someone will put the record straight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dunsbyowl1867 Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 Dave Mcintosh was the first choice for most of the 1950s with Ron Springett towards the end. A few others filled in but can't see that name? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madannie77 Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 Could this be the man in question? Charlie Pllu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterinfrance Posted September 20, 2011 Author Share Posted September 20, 2011 Thanks Madannie this is probably the man. I was about 12 years old at the time and it is a long time ago. I wonder if any one has any programmes or printed material from the time. It would be interesting to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest GAVIN2PLLU Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Charlie Pllu is my father who was the goal keeper for Sheffield Wednesday if you have any questions. He is fine and well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
castle boy Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 I remember Charlie Pllu very well playing for Wednesday .He was 2nd choice keeper after Scotsman Dave Mcintosh .I stand to be corrected but I reckon Wednesday signed him from Shrewsbury Town . Charlie at that time in the 1950's was the smallest keeper in the football league , Standing only 5' 7" or 8", he was also very slim.I used to watch the 1'st team one week then the reserves the following week playing in the Central league in those days .
