McSheffrey…

Same. I was distraught when he left for Blues.

Probably could’ve been Gunnarson after him but wasn’t here long enough.

It’s actually a bit mad how few candidates there could be after that. How many really good players were with us for like 2+ seasons after him? Westwood the only other sprinkling to mind.

Willie Humphries

He was a great fullback very under. Did he get a bad injury that finished his career

Wiki said he got that in 77 at Villa (another reason to hate them) but I don't recall that, I'd moved from Cov by then, so I only remember him playing. I guess like many of those days unless you were a superstar with big money, you faded into "normal" jobs once you hung your boots up.

Bill Glazier as a little un. In terms of going on my own and starting to buy own ticket etc, Kevin Gallagher stands out

Probably Peter Ndlovu, Top shagger as well.

For some reason I went mad for a shirt with Cobi Jones name on. Fuck knows why.

wallace, fergy, hutch, bobby macdonald
.although, i also strangely liked mick coop!! i know, slightly weird.

Coop had a lot of fans. Underrated and a great servant.

I thought I was Darren Huckerby in the school playground, so would say him. Scorer of my favourite Cov goal too.

Was you always getting caught offside then

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

1. Cyrille
2. Huckerby
3. Speedie
4. Huckerby
5. Peake (very underrated .. Mr Reliable)
6. Dion
7. Tommy Hutch (was young with my Dad)
8. Ian Wallace (as above)
9. Stewart Robson (such a shame on injury)
10. Oggy

Big fan of Huckerby then. Or is it that he's in fourth but inevitably has got caught offside in second.

The clue is in the name 🩵
