    Muzzy for me, boyhood hero forever <ok>

    Though Walshie would probably nick it in the 'legend' game.

    I never saw most of those play though.

    Yes has to be Gary Lineker despite me never seeing him play. Just have to look what he did before and how he saved the club in 2002. Without him whould we still have a club to support and moan at

    Toss up between Shilton and Lineker for me. Fortunate enough to see them both and if pushed would have to go for.... No, can't make up my mind, both world class.

    Not the best player I have seen, but I have very fond memories of Steve Thompson. His passing was superb and when he equalised for us against Swindon in the play off final, well, that will stay with me forever :)

    Cant seperate, between Dave Gibson, Gordon Banks, Graham (the tank) Cross and Keith Weller
    But it was worth the paying for a match day ticket just to watch Frankie worthington ball
    juggling before kick off.

    No contest-- Keith Weller by a mile. I didn't notice Derek Dougan on your list. Another great player.

    I can only judge from what I've experienced (the last 15 years) so Izzett for me. Most of that late 90s side were legends to me - Keller, Flowers, Elliott, Walsh, Taggs, Savage, Lennon, Guppy, Claridge, Heskey, Cottee, and a wee while, Collymore. So many good players over such a short time.

    The last ten years...practically zip.
