Since I've been watching us it's got to be Payton or Deano, there's been a few since then but not the same quality! Since I started following City it's probably Edwards in his second spell, but as I never saw much other than goals on Sunday. It's not much to go on!
I wonder how many goals Abel would get if he stayed here for ten years at championship or league 1 level??
Waggo, Chilly, Stewy Pearson. In that order. Just give a shout out for Big Billy Whitehurst. Maybe not our best but definitely my favourite to watch.
Been a city regular since 99 and my two standouts have to be Frazier Campbell, remember his first game at home against Barnsley and he tore them a new one, never seen such a class difference between a city palyer and the opposition before and Marlon King again after coming up to the Prem his touch and the ability for a goal out of nothing was massively impressive. Shame he was a see you next Tuesday off the pitch! Never saw the likes of Chilton, Edwards so hard to judge the best of all time but from what I've seen so far those where the best and did it for some part of there careers in the top league.
Can't decide between Wagstaff or Chilton. I was surprised when I checked that Chilton had the better goals-per-game ratio. That could be down to Waggy playing on longer when often injured and in a side that wasn't creating so many chances. So Chilton. Final answer.
I'm too 'young' to have seen Waggy & Chillo... I'll give it to Edwards who was the archetypal lower-league goal machine although I only saw him play once or twice at BP But for all round football plus scorer it's Windass More recently Fryatt and what a shame we never saw him with us in the PL..
Looking at the players we had when Edwards was here it seems almost an act of genius by those in charge to take City down, as anyone else would surely have bn challenging for top spot.
errr excuse me you user name is one of my previous user names...is this allowed...don't want people confusing us
Up to now most people are going with Waggy, but for me I cannot think of Ken Wagstaff without thinking of Chris Chilton in the same sentence, few other goalscoring partnerships of the era were as lethal, and that is the point, they were a partnership, the goals, from either one of them, was the result of that golden partnership. I can't think of it in the same way for Waggy and Pearson, nope it has to be Waggy and Chillo and for that only reason I cannot put Waggy at the top as many of his goals came from Chiltons unselfish endeavour.
not because of it being ****...because the chicks loved it and I became something of a fanny magnet and could not cope...think the same will happen to castro
