Horse of the Year Show at Wembley Stadium? I don't think so. The pitch may well have been a poor condition when Sprake made his error in the FA Cup but The Horse of The Year Show was held indoors at Wembley Arena. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Matthew10946 (talk • contribs) 08:58, 4 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Gladys

The nickname "Careless Hands" is inaccurate I think - but the song was certainly associated with him. He was more commonly known as "Gladys" - but I've no idea why. As a Huddersfield supporter I was only too happy to see derogatory names for Leeds players, but I certainly remember Leeds supporters using the name as well. Anyone any idea where it came from ?

Solihull College

I don't know about Gary Sprake's whole career in Solihull, but I knew him when he worked at Solihull College. I was on a computer course and he was one of the two people in charge, in mostly an admin type context. Middle More Rider (talk) 19:39, 15 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
