    That's true. The passing of time also gives a player's legacy a firmer footing, too.

    I must admit I was surprised to see someone including BB McClaren, though.

    I can't believe I left out Goodison and particularly Theo. Jimmy Graham is a great shout for LB too - not in the same class as several of our left backs over the years, but a true cult hero.

    Are you saying he was class and being friendly calling him mate, he was a mate of yours who was classy in the process or he was in your class at school?

    Eddie The Cat Blackburn

    Nisbet Skipp Faye De Vries

    Geo Bremner Windass Galvin

    Waggy Edwards

    The Cat scored penalties against him at Bunkers end when i was 13. Was a really good bloke.

    Gordon NisbetJust what a RB was in those days. Much like Liam is now, immaculate pro never flustered.

    Pete Skipper. Local lad of Orchard gave it everything.

    Abdi Faye you dont really have hero's as you get older, as ben said, but that game where he just kept heading every ball got the hairs on me arms up. Brilliant.

    De Vries. My dad hated him, sort of made me like him.

    Geo. Hull City signed a Brazilian!! Just the grace and fluidity, not for long like, but the goal at Arsenal.

    Bremner after watching average mediocre etc etc. Billy was in a different world.

    Windass. Local boy made good, let go once cos he was too small!! FFS

    Chris Galvin. The Galvin shuffle used to practice that over and over again, brilliant to watch.

    Ken Wagstaff just a legend.

    Keith Edwards. Most natural finisher we've ever had.

    Boro at home, the only time since we've had the man of the match vote that everyone (apart from tickles) has had the same top choice.

    I bow to your superior knowledge on this one. I'm probably too young to know first hand who was and wasn't a **** in that period. I was just a young lad.

    Frankie Bunn you ****.

    That's a great squad, especially impressed by the inclusion of Doncel - can't believe I didn't include him
