Imre Varadi's Conker Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Hirst Sheridan Waddle Dicanio Roland Sterland Lyonn's Atkinson D Worthington Pearson peter Rudi as he made my day at blackburn :) The best two players i have seen at Hillsborough destroy us, Gascoigne and Lineker think we lost 0 - 2 in the late 80's ? Lineker scored twice with 2 touches through 90 mins :). Agreed but what about Ian Rush, what a nightmare that bloke was, best I've ever seen.

owllincoln Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Bannister. I only got over us losing him when we signed Hirst. I have still not got over him leaving!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr MooCow Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 I used to like Bob Bolder, mainly cos he had a funny name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 03 owl Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Agreed but what about Ian Rush, what a nightmare that bloke was, best I've ever seen. Both are Definitely fox's in the box, prob the best two of all time for that, i cannot remember either of them scoring from outside the Box? Also i like how you said Bannister :) forgot to add him UTO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neal M Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Siggi Jonsson for me. Also enjoyed watching Zico, Mark Chamberlain, Andy Blair and Lee Chapman. I move a lot of concrete on the QVC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pulsar Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 My first game was in 1979 and a certain Terry Curran had the crowd buzzing every time he ran down the middle or flanks.He was my first fave. A couple of years later it was Gary Bannister although seem to remember getting him mixed up with Charlie Williamson after one pre-season where they both had identical 'Purdie' style hairdos Other faves were Mel Sterland and David Hirst. Worrying thing is at present i don't have an outstanding fave player,haven't had for a few years since Chris Brunt left Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HOOTIE AND THE SHIT TU Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Agreed but what about Ian Rush, what a nightmare that bloke was, best I've ever seen. I used to hate see-ing Man Utd's Brian MaClair, he must have scored 10 goals against us. Just a bloke, who used up all his luck in one go when he met his wife.

Guest zero))) Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Didn't start the thread off well cos I been drinking, but why are these players your favourites? Discussion please not lists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Stereophonics Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Des walker. I was so proud that he played for us. I was always des when playing footy at school and would even try to run like him, sad I know. Just an awesome player, loved how he could give a striker a head start and still beat him to the ball. He never had to make last ditch tackles either cos he read the game so well. He would walk into the current england side Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozziowl74 Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 My 1st Wednesday team I can recall is the 82/83 promotion team, Loved Shelts & Megson in midfield, but the 2 stand out moments from that season were Varadis goal @ home to Charlton, clean thru & chipped the keeper from about 25yrds (It may have even been his hatrick goal ??) & being throw around by my ever so slighty tippsy dad, after 3hrs pre match drinking in The Stands (Pub/Club on the back corner of the Kop) on the pitch after the Crystal Pallace Match when Zico scored to send up up. So for me it's Shelton, Megson & Zico. I also seem to recall pretending to be Siggi johnson after he scored from around 40yrds at Norwich, but is soon passed.

daveyboy66 Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 "Cough " Springett- best keeper we've ver had Swan- best centre half we've ever had Kay- Alan Ball wouldn't have played in 1966 if Kay was in the england team Bronco- God knows how many he would have scored given his scoring record Dobson - great winger on par with Henderson McCalliog- GOD Tomo- great player in a bad team Henderson- ditto Shez -GOD Mark 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patch Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 I'm not that old so don't have much to choose from. Mine were Alexandersson & Emerson Thome. Alexandersson scored 2 in my first game and then played in the 2002 world cup, albeit not with us but still. Not a bad choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
