Ian Ashbee, captain, leader and all round top bloke and Billy Whitehurst because Billy was just Billy, still makes me smile when I think about him. Good thread, we really have had some top lads wearing the black and amber over the years.
I really could not pick my favourites but just to mention a couple of different players... Alex Dyer - wasn't with us long but he caught my eye in my first game at Boothferry as a kid. Linton Brown - for the outrageous handball before scoring when we beat Crewe 7-1 in '94 [video=youtube;PhT-fQzzvMI]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PhT-fQzzvMI[/video]
I think Duane Darby was my first City hero as a kid, but I have to agree with Macca on Elliott being the best of my generation. He could hang in the air for ages when meeting crosses, and I still stand by that Ronaldo learnt that technique of him. From that video, I never gave him deserved credit for how often he beat keepers at their near post. A few other mentions... Danny Allsopp Ben Burgess Keates Delaney Deano Fettis Green Geo Cort Ash Pricey Edit: I can't believe I missed Dawson and Jon Parkin off.
Windass Ashbee Dawson Barmby Elliot Whittle with Deano first and then any order. Quite a few in the present squad, i'd have to say Rosie for his perfect professionalism and all round great blokeness
