About this deal

I hope it stays that way – otherwise it will get like American football, where they bring their families and have hamburgers and everything, and that would spoil it for me. It’s worth another look, mind, as is this feature from the Observer in 2015 in which we catch up with a car salesman, a firefighter and former Wigan captain Arjan De Zeeuw in the Netherlands, where he is now a police detective.

In collaboration with Opta, we are including advanced analytical data such as xG, xA, progressive passing, duels and more for over twenty competitions. Sterland added some steel, experience and an innate positional sense to Leeds’s back four, but anyone who watched his Elland Road career has scarce memories of anything he did in defence. But when the house was eventually demolished they did build a playground where it had stood, which would have made her mum happy. Mel’s career started at Sheffield Wednesday and he went onto play for Leeds United for four years and then went to Glasgow Rangers for a short period.Melvyn “Mel” Sterland (born 1 October 1961 in Sheffield) is an English former professional footballer who played in the Football League for Sheffield Wednesday and Leeds United and in the Scottish Football League Premier Division for Rangers, and was capped once for England. David Mills and Pat Heard were the unfortunate players who had to make their own way to Highbury by taxi. The football choreography is refreshingly unspectacular – there are no impractical flying volleys here – and that works to the film’s credit.

On a cold December afternoon in 1989, Sterland delivered a trademark Exocet missile onto the head of Ian Baird to seal a late win over promotion rivals Newcastle United, having first left defenders in his wake with a deep run from his own half.When the houses were starting to come down Mum was helping people get the properties they wanted, because the council was just trying to put them anywhere,” said Darrell.

When I went to see Jack all I heard was 'come in' I opened the door and Big Jack had a flat cap on, smoking a cigarette and reading the paper. Sterland admits he would love nothing more than to roll back the years and play for his former club.She said it was for a man who’d worked all his life and had never claimed benefits but they didn’t listen. In fact, this was the peak of his fame – give or take the odd Dairylea advert – and he now works in data security. With the Highlander himself, Christopher Lambert, among the producers, this was already destined to be a high-class affair. Professional dreams scuppered, Jimmy – now 26 and played by an absolutely-not-26-year-old Bean – still turns out for his local pub team. After 11 years at his boyhood club, the 27-year-old Sterland fancied a change of scenery and Edmiston Drive was his next destination.

The special screening of On The Manor was organised by the Yorkshire and North East Film Archives as part of its TV Time Machine project, funded by BFI and Film Hub North, with the support of the ITV Archives.On he comes – and his first contribution is to go straight through what looks vaguely like Phil Neville. Despite that, there were still plenty of highs in a stint that, strangely, did not include so much as one derby appearance against United.
