Lee Sharpe?
Did Manure have a player called Aig?

Lee Sharpe was the easy one
Peter Lorimer? Lorimers Beer.
Just a thought,Don't think players had names on shirts in Lorimer's day.
Apoint of interest - Lee Sharpe had a different spelling to Sharp the sponsor. So strictly speaking that is incorrect.

The other was reputed to be Ian Walker (Leicester), however Walker arrived at Leicester in the summer of 2001, the same summer that the Foxes abandoned Walker's crisps as a sponsor and replaced it with LG Electronics, so he never actually wore a shirt with his name on both sides.

But Viv Anderson did. Names were used on shirts in both the League Cup and FA Cup finals in 1993, and since Sheffield Wednesday reached both of those, Anderson did play two games in such a strip.
Forgot to mention - Sheffield Wednesday were sponsored by Sanderson.

What about Draper at Southampton(Draper Tools).
I thought about Draper but he played for the Saints after Draper sponsored them.
By the way pedantic daily editor...Sharp is Sharpe whether there's an "e" on the end or not.
Still his name so there :-P

Viv Anderson was the other one I had on my list. As in Sanderson.

Well done!
What about Mitch Ward, when Sheffield United were sponsored by Ward's in the mid 1990's
