Dave Whelan Career

Whelan played 78 times as a left back, scoring three times, for Blackburn Rovers and was a member of its 1960 FA Cup Final team, which lost 3–0 to Wolverhampton Wanderers. Whelan himself did not complete the game, a feisty challenge from Whelan on Norman Deeley culminated in the Blackburn man being withdrawn before half time due to a broken leg. Whelan's injury is one of many serious injuries suffered by players in the 1950–60 era and was known as the Wembley hoodoo. Following his leg break, Whelan was sold to Crewe Alexandra, where he made his debut on 23 February 1963 in a 4–0 first round League Cup defeat at Port Vale, and notched up 115 appearances through to April 1966. He then retired to concentrate on developing a retail grocery business.

Exclusive INTERVIEW BY WILL PICKWORTH: It's a moment that sums up the FA Cup's essence. Wigan, who's owner Dave Whelan had seen his own FA Cup dream broken 53 years earlier after breaking his leg in the final, was compared to a star-studded Manchester City team on May 11, 2013. Shaun Maloney whipped in a corner where Ben Watson struck and powered past Joe Hart after 91 goalless minutes. Before Roberto Martinez's side won a prestigious FA Cup final victory and Wigan's first - and to date, only - major trophy was awarded.

Marine veteran Paul Whelan is attacked in Russian prison by another inmate who 'punched him in the face and broke his glasses' - as his brother claims he's a 'target' because he's American

Ex-Marine Paul Whelan, 53, was arrested while serving a 16-year sentence on espionage charges at the IK-17 camp in Mordovia, southeast of Moscow, southeast of Moscow. Whelan's brother Dave alerted the assault on November 18 which was later revealed by Russia's prison service. According to Dave Whelan, a new prisoner blocked a portion of the production line, and Paul begged him to move out of the way.' The prisoner struck Paul in the chest, breaking Paul's glasses in the process, and attempted to punish him for the second time after repeated demands. 'Paul stood up to block the second strike, and other prisoners intervened to prevent the prisoner from continuing the assault on Paul.' The assault took place just weeks after Paul Whelan told Secretary of State Antony Blinken that failing to negotiate his release from Russian jail had 'basically signed a death warrant' for him.

SIMON JORDAN: English football will snatch defeat from the jaws of victory by creating a Frankenstein regulator

www.dailymail.co.uk, September 27, 2023
SIMON JORDAN: For all intents and purposes, football fans are the lifeblood of the game, but they can sometimes be a little disguided. The independent regulator that is taking the steps is the result of a preordained fan-led study. Fans have argued that they need an independent body to regulate the very thing they wanted in the first place - a free for all. They wanted the best players and top managers to be paid as much as they could, wanted the best players and best administrators to be involved in proper leadership, but they don't like it anymore.
