    I went for Wilf as LB but KJ could be considered for 3 different positions as he also played well at CH and LM.

    I've only just looked at the right-wingers, but if you read the article, it says that Tommy Smith "rose to prominence in the FA Youth Cup win over Manchester United". I initially took that as when we won the cup, but that was in 1982 and he was born in 1980!

    No it does not. I plumped for KJ and Allan Nielsen. Not prolific goalscorers from midfield :emoticon-0138-think

    More and more of an age thing coming to the fore. Some of these players are not known to many.

    The bulk of last seasons team reinforced by Nyom , Prodl , Capoue . must be getting close to the strongest home side to play at the Vic .
    would be great to have Callaghan , Barnes , Blissett and Jenkins on the bench ..

    This has been so hard. Some of my picks was because they was my 1ST love from the 60S , Others because there blood runs yellow like mine . If i had to pick the best players to play for the club it would go something like this Jennings bardsley simms big mac robbo then mid of barnsey cally nielsen and porter holton and johnston its been fun (i only voted for 5 of these)

    I must admit to a huge bias for the two GT eras!
