Rotherham Town right-back Harry Thickett later won the FA cup twice with Sheffield Utd -
1899 v Derby County (4-1)
1902 v Southampton (1-1, 2-1 in replay)
Not at Wembley though - all those games were at Crystal Palace

Charles Sutcliffe - more information
He made his Rotherham County debut against South Shields, conceding four goals, but County still managed to win the game 5-4. Whilst at Leeds City he always smoked a pipe prior to kick-off to calm his nerves!

Anyone mentioned Tony Grealish yet?
EDIT: Runner Up.
Norman Hunter won as well if I cheat and bring managers in.

Jody Morris (Chelsea)
Emlyn Hughes (Liverpool)
Dave Watson and Vic Halom (Sunderland)
Len White (Newcastle)
Bill Myerscough (Aston Villa)
Charles Sutcliffe (Sheff Utd)
Harry Thickett (Sheff Utd) - didn't climb the Wembley steps but still won the FA Cup twice.

Got another one - Scott Minto (Chelsea)
2-0 v M'boro' (1997) at Wembley
Not the same game as Jody Morris, which was in 2000

... and another one...
Harry Pantling played as right-half for Rotherham United in 1926-7 season (Division 3N) after appearing in the Sheffield United 1925 FA Cup winning team ( with Charlie Sutcliffe)
We're into double figures...

...and what about Philip Bratley
FA Cup winner with Barnsley (1912) against WBA. Played at centre-half.
0-0 at Crystal Palace, replay 1-0 at Bramhall Lane
Played as LB/RB for Rotherham County 1919/21. He'd had a previous spell with County when they were not in the Football League

Morris will have to do most of the running for the older lads in mid-field. And tell the keeper not to pick any back passes up.
