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.

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.

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.

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!

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

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!

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

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.

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
