Hamer at 7 and Doyle at 16, one place above fucking Hadji. Cba to scroll the rest, the first row tells me it's utter nonsense.

It has also somehow missed off Clarrie Bourton, only the club’s record goalscorer

Putting aside the numerous lols that this list has caused me, there's clear recency bias. Pretty much our entire first team from last season is in there. It's just a bit silly.

And there's players like Dennis Wise (our 36th best player ever, apparently), when he only played a handful of games.

I could try to shit in Wesley Jobello's shoes from the top of the Eiffel tower whilst wearing a blindfold, and it would still be more accurate than this list.

Pretty mental that Wise and Cole made the top 50 but Robert Jarni doesn’t even make the list.

Darren Huckerby, Gerry Daly, Andy Blair and Dean Emerson ..... you can sack off the likes of Jay Tabb, Carl Baker, Cobi Jones and Paul Telfer in that company.

And yet T.H. is (correctly) no1.
Which would indicate knowledge dating back to the 70's at least.

How come former England goalkeeper Chris Kirkland is below Ben Wilson….

I’ll put it out there now - Kirkland was a better goalkeeper than Oggy

On what basis is it ranked? Like what they are at peak or at us - Maddison as a Coventry player wasn’t half the player Froggatt or Boeteng were

Maybe, but I've never seen Pele play and would probably still put him in the top 100 footballers of all time. We can be influenced by the expectation of others. If he's read that TH was our best player enough times, he could believe it without ever seeing it with his own eyes.
