IanG Posted February 21, 2010 Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 Saw him park up behind the Williams and really liked the way he stood and chatted to a group of fans for what must have been getting on for 10 minutes before wondering off through the crowds as if he was just one of the normal punters.

alandicks Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 Time after time after time on this forum I see the word legend used for players who do not deserve the tag. A legend surely is someone like Atyeo the record club scorer or any of the long serving lads that actually achieved something for this club in getting them to the promised land. The likes of Merrick, Collier, Rogers , Sweeney, Tainton, Gow, Ritchie etc who got the club up and then performed brilliantly against the top talent in the country to keep them there for four seasons. Yes Scott/Tinnion were marvelous servants but only served in a team that yo yo'd between the championship and league one spending most of their time in league one.Sorry I don't call that legendary.

Alex_BCFC Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 I do. Over the past 20 years since I've been watching players like Tinnion and Murray are legends for the younger ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I totally disagree. Just because someone played at the highest level does not mean their contribution is any more valid than someone who battled through the dark days in the early 80s. The likes of Rob Newman for example - surely a City hero? Scotty was an excellent player at his level and gave 100% over a huge number of games. That to me makes him a legend. Oh - and as I recall, Atyeo played a large number of games in the lower divisions. End of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alandicks Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 Yes I will give you that but only because you use the word hero rather than legend. Atyeo did play mostly in the lower divisions but only through loyalty as he could have moved higher if he wished.How many lower league players play for England? Scott & Tinnion I believe werre playing at the level that was correct for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Casual Connoisseur Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 Tinnion could have played at a higher level but he was loyal, that makes him a legend alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So only players at the top can be described as legendary then? That's going to leave fans of most clubs rather short on the legends front I'd have thought. Fans of most big clubs wouldn't see the likes of Gow, Merrick et al as legends because all they really did was win promotion from the second division. I doubt Newcastle's current team will be remembered as legends up there if they win the league this year. Everything is relative and for the past 30 years or so City have been playing at a fairly low standard. This doesn't in any way diminish the achievements of those involved, however. Scott Murray is an excellent role model for young players in his attitude, positivity and the way he conducts himself on and off the pitch. He's not the best player in the world and never has been but he's loyal (OK he went to Reading but who can blame him), dedicated and plays the game with a smile on his face. In this world of Terrys, Gerrards and Coles I think a man as pleasant as Scott deserves recognition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
