I am older than you and therefore have experienced more SAFC-related misery. Take my word for it...
Never argued your point at all fella - but, depending on how much older you are, you also experienced one of our most triumphant moments too! (If you remember Richie Pitt and Dave Watson you almost certainly did!!)
 
McCann played for England as did Tony Towers, we've had a few canny ones . Just not enough.
As did Carlton Palmer!!

As I say I like McCann but I wouldn't have put him in with the quality of M'Vila or Kirchhoff or Schwarz for that matter - he was the worker to Schwarz's quality I though - but still a very decent footballer
 
A diamond , have we played that yet this season ?
Not to my knowledge, but its not rocket science. Have we dominated a game this season, for me only in patches, the best performance I think was the first half against Portsmouth at Wembley where Catts and Leadbitter dominated the game, I think they could do the same on Sunday with Power playing deeper allowing the full backs to get forward and Honeyman in front playing in a freer role behind Wyke. Its not perfect I admit, but it gets our best players involved. I think we need to look at all our options, and maybe a surprise or two would not go amiss.

Who partnered Hutchison? God, if he had stayed longer you never know.......
We had him around the same time as Rae, McCann, Schwarz, Eric Roy, Fredgaard, Kilbane (2000-01). Schwarz actually rarely played in the centre of midfield though. Most of his games he played on the left of midfield. I vaguely recall that Hutchison often played on the right. Both Johnston and Summerbee had left by this point which is represented in the fact that Phillips only scored 14 league goals that season.

Fair enough. I though he was central but my memory is trash.

I remember it well! Little did l know that we'd have won **** all else 46 years later!! We've had some good times since though, not least the six in a row.
 
Nope! Strange to hear that @clockstander - it's either absolute genius or pure madness to try something completely brand new for the biggest game of the season? If it works (not that I thik we will play it), absolute genius. If it doesn't, pure madness!!

Its only a suggestion on a forum Markus. But just what if he did play it , ( I dont think he will either by the way ) , we wallup Charlton 4-0, and then I claimed in hindsight that I had thought of the possibility too, would anybody believe me, I doubt it. <laugh>

Absolutely - better to put it out there than say "I thought this might happen"!! <laugh>
