Sova Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 (edited) So... 3 pre-WW1 players, 1 each from the 30s and 50s, 3 from the 60s, 1 from the 70s, 5 from the 90s and one from the 00s - is that right? And 1 keeper, 6 defenders, 3 midfielders and 5 forwards. A bit of a shame no one from our mid-80s side made it, although I suppose their highs weren't quite as high as the highs of other periods and including players from less successful periods gives a better spread. Only 1 representative of our great late 20s-early 30s side, which is perhaps a bit surprising given that we've only ever won 4 titles, and they won two of them. Maybe the problem was that they were so good, it's hard to know which of them to pick. Edited September 3, 2017 by Sova Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owls maniac Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Bullen and Walker the only outliers there. All the rest rightly in the line up. Let's be honest, it was an impossible task to please everyone- we've had some excellent players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So would Bullen to be fair. Can see why Bullen was chosen due to him being a leader who got us out of the mire at a time when we had hit almost and all time low but no contest as to Sterland being a far better footballer and it would also have been nice to have him in as a player from was was a fairly successful team.

Etchesketch Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 (edited) 8 minutes ago, pgmetcalf said: Says a lot when 5 people are from the same team Being pick I'd say 4. Walker signed in 93 and I associate him with the post 93 team that started to slowly go downhill under Francis, Pleat and Wilson. Not surprising that there are those from the same team as it is the most sucessful team we have had in the last fifty years and the fans voted. I would have preferred Sterland to Walker to represent the 80s side that went up and stayed in the top flight.
