Sodge's

[Chris1]

Does anybody know how many Sodge's there really are? We have had a couple; one plays at Crewe (?), one at Hampton & R - that's 4. One appeared in the World Cup with that strange headband. It could make a good documentary.

One at the "Fleet". Are they all related or is that a common name in the land that they come from? i.e. Smith in england. Maybe John "Sodje fanatic" Kirby could help you on this one.

Tere are 10 in the Sodje family. I had the privelege of interviewing Sam at his home. He showed my a recent family photo.

Did he "kick" you out of the house afterwards? <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I shall treat that remark with the contempt it deserves.

[JohnKirby]

Does he have any other hobbies? <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

If dad is Sam snr, does that mean Sam jnr is the oldest son? If so, some must be quite young and there could be potential for one or more to make the big time.

[JohnKirby]

Bright is the oldest, then Efe, Onome is the youngest

 

incidently yes i do have other hobbies, I even won a leicester art prize the other day! No sodjes were hurt...
