JET will tear you apart Posted August 16, 2013 Report Share Posted August 16, 2013 Just wondering who was your favourite city player when you where younger and who you had on the back of your shirt Mine would be either Leroy Lita or Scott Murray and I had both of their names of my shirts, Lita being number 8 and scotty number 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTID Posted August 16, 2013 Report Share Posted August 16, 2013 Chris Garland didnt have the shirt but had the Robins Holdall, best birthday ever (all 7 of them!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRL Posted August 16, 2013 Report Share Posted August 16, 2013 Rob Newman, Bob Taylor, Smudger, Nicky Morgan, Scott Murray, Martin Scott and for some reason Matty Hill Honurable mentions to Tommy D, Shaun Taylor and Jackie (although overhyped, he could make a drab game more intersting with an exquisite piece of skill), Brennan Barnard, Bell i was around on the 70's, but i was relly to young to appreciate what we had then. So it is the guys above that made most impression on me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Posted August 16, 2013 Report Share Posted August 16, 2013 When i started watching it was Alan Walsh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuber Posted August 16, 2013 Report Share Posted August 16, 2013 I'm a bit younger than the majority on this forum (18), although I have been a season ticket since 2001 but I was only a bit of a nipper then, I'd have to say my favourite players to watch would probably be either Sproule, Tins, or Hartley, the former most for the sheer pace (like his goal against So'ton.) and the latter two for their quality on the ball Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cider head Posted August 16, 2013 Report Share Posted August 16, 2013 There has been a fair few former players I like but the one that tops the list for me is Gerry Gow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC RISK77 Posted August 16, 2013 Report Share Posted August 16, 2013 When i started watching it was Alan Walsh. Ditto the one and only for me.....when i started getting into footy i was 8 and it was the 85/86 season and for the next 3 seasons at least Walsh was our top scorer and my idol, always was and always will be. I cried my eyes out when he left for Besiktas, the only player that did that since was Bob Taylor who comes a close second to Alan Walsh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WTFiGO!?! Posted August 16, 2013 Report Share Posted August 16, 2013 Bob Taylor was my first City favorate, I also liked Martin Scott, thought he was different class. Only went occassionally ad a kid as my old man couldn't afford to regularly take us all but fairly sure I would have seen Cole and Jacki play. Tinman and Murray also up there as was Bell. Shaun Taylor, Goater .. the list goes on. Never saw Gow or anyone like that, sadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedM Posted August 16, 2013 Report Share Posted August 16, 2013 Some great names but for me it can only be...Moyes. I wonder how many of our current team we will be discussing in 20 or 30 years times in a similar thread? They don't make 'em like they used to.

milo1111 Posted August 16, 2013 Report Share Posted August 16, 2013 Bob Taylor. Total hero. Out on his own in my time watching city. Also loved basso although it was tainted at the end. For sheer attitude and commitment all of the side of the championship PO final season side are favs for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
