Ron springett, derek Dooley , Andrew Wilson , John fantham , David Hirst. One of them for sure! 

 

Waddle doesn't count (imo) as he was only here a short time 

 

 

Dooley 61 appearances, Waddle 109 appearances, granted that DD literally bled for the cause, but Waddle (imo) definitely counts.

Benito carbone for me

Carbone gets the ball tries a trick in midfield loses the ball...... Hillsborough Hush.... and you hear the ball ripple on every knot as it enters into our net as the opposition score. Sure he scored some great goals but gave away just as many.

I was a young boy when he played and I liked what I saw so I don't care what you say, it's only my opinion 

You obviously do care or you wouldn't have responded. Sorry that I hurt your feelings with my opinion. Peace.

Sorry Owler I cant agree with that. He was flawed and gave away too much too cheap. I know lots of Owls fans love Carbone, and can see no wrong in him, but he couldn't resist trying one trick too many, and cost lots of goals. Di Canio though, was the real deal. Proper footballer.

In the last 12 games of that season 98/99, Carbone scored 2 goals both in the same game. Danny Sonner and Andy Booth were the top scorers during that run in, with just 3 goals each. so to say that Carbone kept us up almost single handed is seeing things through rose tinted specs. In any event we survived that season reasonably comfortably being 10 points clear of the relegation places.

 

league Scorers for 98/99

Rudi              8

Carbone        8(1pen)

Di Canio        3

Hinchcliffe     3

Booth            3

Sonner          3

 

and one each for Briscoe, Alexanderson, Humphries, Jonk, Thome, Scott {who I Can't remember), and Cresswell
