Had too many tinnies to do this again, but most of these players would not make my all time squad.

I suppose it depends on how old you are. I must be a bit older

I have sympathy with any of those who chose Shaw. A total comedian masquerading as a footballer.

Just wondering why nobody ever selects Speedie. Was a great leader like Wise but grabbed the team by the bollocks when they tried to slack off. Scored some amazing goals, some of those lobs he scored left be gobsmacked (ok i was a kid then but even now when i youtube them i still think they are class). Another one i could mention is LLoyd McGraph, he was a silent assasin. He never produced much but ask him to man mark somebody and they never got a kick.

He was an above average player for the club and a great servant.

I ask this every time. Speedie probably remains my favorite city player ever. A touch of class who stood out. I also prefer to pick players who stuck around for a bit so never pick keane
