Pat Jennings ? You having a laugh Sludge. He was a fine looking young Irishman, not too dissimilar to a young Rory Gallagher when he (Pat) grew his hair a bit longer.

Now if you had said Nobby Stiles and Liverpool's Tommy Smith then you'd have no argument from me.

There's a twitter account that looked at this, although I think it's inactive now if you click this link and then click the media button and scroll you can see loads of players aging badly.

Rune Stakkeland looks 50 at the age of 22.

Jimmy Leadbetter looks 60 at the age of 33.

I'll upload some pictures when I've got access to a computer later.

I see the fake birth certificates issue isn't a modern problem in football.

Nivaldo at 29 looks closer to 70 than 30. Maybe these are just their worst photos.
