shull 30,545 Report post Posted September 30 (edited) Not necessarily the best football players you have seen but players you liked and admired in the black and white. They may have been below par skill wise but fought hard for the cause. Mine...... Manager - Danny Lennon 1. Danny Stevenson 2. Sandy Cleland 3. John Mowat 4. Tony Fitzpatrick 5. Gordon McQueen 6. Willie Fulton 7. Bobby McKean 8. Billy Stark 9. Dougie Somner 10. Lex Richardson. 11. Jackie McGillivray Beat that.

shull 30,545 Report post Posted September 30 Had to edit. Cleland for Beckett. Great dude was Sandy Cleland. Although, not a better player than Beckett. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Still was very good but have enjoyed watching other players more. Scanlon and Copland my two favourites. Mcdougall and Macca upfront was a joy.

Victor was obviously still a very good player when he came to us, but not even in my top 5 best players in the stripes. McAvennie no. 1 for me. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd probably have Thomson in for Money, as thought he was a better all round keeper, cup semis aside, and Beckett maybe for Munro (whose reputation took a hit after walking away from the managers job). 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The OP though talked about players that you just loved, even if they weren’t necessarily good enough to get in an 11 purely on ability. On that basis I’d have to add Richardson, Torrance, Beckett and Wilson (Tommy). 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All about the individual forumsters favourite player. The player could be good, bad or indifferent at playing the game. I picked Cleland and Mowat in my Team. They weren't outstanding players but were cult heroes to me. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Prague Buddie 350 Report post Posted October 2 (edited) 4 hours ago, God of war said: Turner, Aitken and Cooper over Copland???? U mad😛 To be honest, I don't remember ever seeing Copland play (although, I did) , that's why he isn't there. I was quite young in those days. I remember Weir (especially 2nd time), Scanlon and Macca, but not Copland. Back in those days I was between the age of 5 - 10, so only ever paid attention to the exciting wingers and goalscorers. Turner, Cooper and Aitken were more from the era when I started to appreciate defenders aswell. Edited October 2 by Prague Buddie 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
