Dream Team - The Centre halves!

[Lord Snooty]

 

Wow. We've had a lot.

And many that I thought might be on but came up a few games short of qualification. But they can't all come in!

You might also be surprised by one or two that have given more service than you might have imagined.

 

Going through it there's been a high number from the 80's, possibly to do with Sgt. Wilko going with 3 at the back for long periods.

Anyway. Here's the list

 

It's open choice so you can pick more than one. 

 

I actually think this is one of the toughest votes, because if you're a bit of a football gimp like me , you won't only be choosing your favourites will you? No,  you'll be wracking your brains thinking about picking the ones you think would have the skills to make a great pair between them. 

"With his heading and his tackling, what a dream!" or  "I love these two, but they haven't got a yard of pace between them!"

Or will you? 

Maybe you're normal and just will pick your favourite two regardless of whether they'd actually work together as pair because...well it's just a bit of fun isn't it, they aren't actually taking to the pitch to play.

 

Remember lets also have your memories of these chaps. Games, tackles, goals,  moments, away days or nightclub meets!

You'll never beat Des Walker

Who you had along side him Hoots?

[HOOTIE AND THE SHIT TU]

Gone with Mick Lyons and Des Walker

 

Mick Lyons would always put his head where others wouldn't put their feet

 

And with Des mopping up behind him, they'd have been a formidable pair

 

If my father was still alive, he'd swear that Peter Swann was better than Bobby Moore

[shandypants]

Easy choice for me, Mick Lyons and Des Walker. If I had to choose a third, it’d be Peter Shirtliff. 

[alanharper]

Another Walker and Lyons combo here, imagine those two playing together.

 

But now I feel bad about not picking Pearson. Or Smith. Or Shirtliff.  Or Madden. 

[mogbad]

Walker & Pearson.

 

if he hadn’t fekked his career up with the bribes scandal I suspect Peter Swan would have been one of my choices.

[Philb125]

I’d have walker and Thome if Thome was there. 

[Lizzie Birdsworth]

Mick Lyons... remember him winning a chicken (probably a turkey) for a MOM performance. Also used to win 1000 headers per game. 

Des Walker  Just sheer class.

[Sham67]

Mick Lyons and Des Walker.  Perfect combo.

[Lizzie Birdsworth]

Also a special mention for Ian Knight who would have gone on to captain England if it wasn't for that thugtard Gary Bennett.

exactly my vote too ! 

[Holmowl]

No brainer for me.

 

Lyons and Walker.

 

What a duo that would be.

 

Couldn’t you spell Larry May Snoots?

[OwlBiSeeinThi]

What about big Viv Anderson. Regardless though. Des Walker for me with Pearson.

Went for Walker and Pearson. Can't remember much of Lyons to be honest, my dad will probably ball me for leaving him out though.

[robowl4life]

Where’s Hector on that list 

[GMOwl72]

WOT no Greg Fee and Larry May?

[Pablo Bonvin]

Nigel Pearson for me. Awesome performance at Wembley 91, MOTM that day, and to date the only Owls captain I’ve seen lift a major trophy aloft. 

 

Please please let him not not be the last.
