Out of interest, why Flowers for "most contributed" team? SKD have us 10 years and contributed hugely to our resurrection. I know, it's about opinion. Just found Flowers an odd choice.
Lff is out tonight, but he asked me to post this: Cork Cork. Cork. Cork. Cork Cork Cork. Cork Cork Cork. Cork Subs: anyone but Cork
Which one of mine is the fake? Replace the intruder with John Sydenham. Or Frank Saul. Williams?? Beddy, was he a fullback in the early 60s?
Yes he was......when I was down there as a school boy training with the under eighteens he used to come and coach us sometimes.
Of course you are right FLT (can't believe I overlooked Kelv), I was just thinking back and remembered what a great keeper Tim was for us, winning POTS a couple of times IIRC. But SKD's overall contribution was greater on reflection, in the dressing room as well as on the pitch.

When we did this at TSW we came up with two teams to play each other. Here's a link to all the threads which TSW archived: https://www.saintsweb.co.uk/forumdisplay.php?14-Golden-Posts We ended up with: Team A: Manager: Lawrie McMenemy GK: Peter Shilton RB: Ivan Golac CB: Mark Wright CB: Michael Svensson LB: Wayne Bridge RM: Terry Paine CM: Alan Ball (C) CM: Matthew Le Tissier LM: David Armstrong RF: Mick Channon LF: Ron Davies Subs GK: Tim Flowers DF: Ken Monkou MF: Rod Wallace ST: Steve Moran UP: Nick Holmes Team B: Manager: Ted Bates GK: Antti Niemi RB: Jason Dodd CB: Claus Lundekvam CB: Dave Watson LB: Mark Dennis RM: Danny Wallace CM: Steve Williams CM: Jimmy Case (C) LM: Chris Marsden RF: Kevin Keegan LF: Marian Pahars Subs GK: Kelvin Davis DF: Mick Mills MF: Ronnie Ekelund ST: Alan Shearer UP: Peter Osgood Note: UP = Utility Player. Only 5 substitutes.
This is what this forum come up with in 2015 after voting in a poll for each position.... Manager: Lawrie McMenemy please log in to view this image
Which is remarkly similar similar to the TSW line-up, minus Rickie, Morgan and Jose, as it was before their Saints era.
It's not surprising, but does go to show how a players departure still effects such votes. Even players who leave in relatively good terms. Players who suffered career ending or altering injuries such as Ekelund or Svensson make those TSW squads, yet Dean Richards/Gareth Bale have not I am intrigued to see if Fonte will get into this team now
I'm still Embarrassed Kevin Keegan didn't get in that team. He was the current European Footballer of the year and played like it too. A bit like us signing Ronald next season.
missed an 'o'...ronald is a dutchman, but I agree with you 100%. Keegan was the Ronaldo or Messi of the late 70s/early 80s
