An excellent documentary on ITV last night called Brothers in Football. It was the story of the Corinthians (to become Corinthian Casuals). It covered their history and influence on world football and a great story about the current team playing a match against SC Corinthians Paulista in Brazil.
Did anybody else see it?

Brothers from different mothers. ( & fathers)
1955-56 when they reached the Amateur Cup Final
v Bishop Auckland. Sure Mickey Stewart played for them
before signing for Charlton.
On 22 October 1988, they played in a match at The Dell against Sheffield Wednesday - the first time that three brothers had played in the same team in the English professional top-flight since 1920. They continued to play together for the remainder of the 1988–89 season.
For many years, a framed photo of the brothers, in Southampton kit, was displayed in The Dog & Bell pub in Deptford. I'll have a look to see if it's still there next time I visit.
