GEORGE ROBLEDO AND TED

You may wonder what the link is between this Chilean Futbol club Colo Colo in Santiago and England's World Cup story; it's dead easy-John Stones.

Thurlstone born Stones scored two goals for England against Panama in the recent World Cup and thus he became the first Barnsley (1946-9:105 apps-45 goals) man to achieve a double for England. He also became the second former Red to achieve this feat following the great George Robledo who scored two against the USA for Chile in 1950. What? Who?
Jorge Robledo Oliver was born to a Chilean father and English mother, who emigrated to England (Wath on Dearne) in 1932 when he was five years old.
Young George worked in the mines when he was old enough and played part time for Huddersfield Town and then Barnsley after the war. Newcastle signed him in 1949 for £26,500, no mean fee at that time. When ever George moved he had to include his brother Ted in the deal, Ted never quite made it. George stayed at Newcastle from 1949-53 (146apps-82).
Here's Ted who turned out 31 times for Newcastle.

Remember the disaster that England had against the USA in 1950. Chile beat the USA 5-2, England lost 0-1 to the amateurs. England had beaten Chile 2-0 in their first pool match. In the Chilean team was their only full time professional, George Robledo, who at the time was on Newcastle United's books.

Robledo had become the first non British registered player to top score in the Football League and the first South American to play in an FA Cup final, in 1951 v Blackpool which Newcastle won. Both Ted and George enjoyed the honour of being the first pair of foreigners (brothers too) to play in an FA Cup Final.
George  later helped the Magpies beat Arsenal in 1952, scoring a goal.

Later he went on to Colo Colo with Ted (1953-58 153-84) and then to the Club Deportivo O'Higgins Futbol in Rancagua until 1960, when he retired.

George played 31 times for Chile scoring 8 goals.

He died in Chile aged 62.
Ted went in to the oil tanker business after football and died mysteriously at sea at the age of 42.
