Wow! Great choices, Were you at the game(Think it was Huddersfield at HR) when Harold Wilson was in the stand.
Big George Burst the ball with his head, the ball fell to the ground like a wet pancake. The ref couldn't believe what had just happened and literally threw the ball off the pitch like a Frisby. I think George could stick "The nut" on a brick wall and not flinch.

good choice, loved thompson and konjic.

Walking Bird · May 10, 2012

Too many to choose from but Speedie stands out for me.
Closely followed by Dave Phillips one of the classiest players i saw at the City.

Dion, Huckerby, Keane and Froggatt for me. Dion and Huckerby were the one's that first got me watching city, keane for his obvious quality and froggatt after scoring some belters, one was against everton i think? Could have been a cracking player.

Its games like the Everton one that highlight how far we've fallen. Live on Sky, 98/99 season, won 3-0. Huckerby's goal that day was an absolute rocket as well as Froggatt's.

mattdp · May 10, 2012

Oggy, Big Mo, Cyrille, Speedie, Lloyd McGrath

Yes, back in the days where we had a team that could play with tempo and width. I've always said that I thought we had the best of Froggatt's career. Just a shame he never got back into the England set up. Wish we had players who could work the wide positions that well in our current squad!

JulianDarbyFTW · May 10, 2012

Speedie for me. Then Ndlovu. And I always had a soft spot for the Leigh Jenkinson stepover.

Chipfat · May 10, 2012

Brian Burrows, Trevor Peake and Micky Gynn were very very good players that never really got the headlines. But the player that i loved watching was Stuart Robson,,, if he wasn't such a crip he would of been the england captain for years....

Houchens Head · May 10, 2012

Robbie Keane. (Haven't these type of threads been done to death before?)

Sky Blue Kid · May 10, 2012

Love the Island, where abouts do you live?

oakey · May 10, 2012

Graham Oakey, of course.
Actually favourites are
Mick Ferguson
Micky Gynn
Oakey
Colin Stein.
With honourable mention for Danny Thomas.

Again I feel sorry for those fans who missed the best years of 1967 til late 80s.
Only the entertainers in the late 90s can be mentioned in the same company.

I've visited the "Needles" but mostly the north, east, and south of the island, Ryde, Ventnor, Shanklin, Sandown, etc, on the east coast.
Newport(Nightmare to get through)lol.

Not if you know the side roads! It's a pain in the arse that it's mostly one-way all through the town!
The Isle of Wight Motorway is okay though. (That's the half mile dual carriageway just outside the town! You can reach the giddy speed of 60mph for at least 30 seconds!

Covstu · May 11, 2012

For me it has to be McAllister, just that bot of class in the midfield.

Do you mean the B&Q roundabout up to Cowes:laugh::laugh::laugh:

Dion edges it for me - only because me mates mum got on the team bus away at West Ham (when Boateng got sent off) and asked for Dion, not knowing who he was... Dion kindly got off and had a photo taken with me and pals. - Top bloke

sky blue john · May 11, 2012

has to be david speedie for me
Always gave 110%
scored his fair share of goals.
5foot nothing but could beat 99% of 6foot + players in the air.
Technically good was our stand out player at the time deserved better players around him.

Rather than the players who had just won the FA cup, you mean?

stupot07 · May 11, 2012

Peter Ndlovu was my favourite player. He really was a player that got you on the edge of your seat everytime he got the ball.

Covfather · May 11, 2012

Has to be Dion for me, the atmosphere at HR was electric when he scored his goals.. Was my late teen years and singing Dion Dion Dublin at HR stands out

and most frustrating too!

TheUKGryphon · May 11, 2012

Paul Telfer. Before you all laugh at me, I'll explain.

While it is true he could never really go one on one with another player and come out the victor, but the guy could run like Forrest Gump, no bugger and I mean NO ONE could keep up with him and when he kicked the ball downfield, it stayed KICKED!

yeah he was certainly frustrating. I can remember Big Ron trying a twin attack of Ndlovu and Lamptey......they were shocking upfront
