Septic Peg Posted February 8, 2017 Report Share Posted February 8, 2017 I said Basso with my heart favouring Keith in the other thread but based on the stats, Welchy gets the vote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warwickshire Red Posted February 8, 2017 Report Share Posted February 8, 2017 Or there's Keith Waugh 1985-1989 with 167 appearances too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bristolcitysweden Posted February 8, 2017 Report Share Posted February 8, 2017 It can only be Basso. A truly superb keeper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benjam!n Ultra Posted February 8, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2017 My nomination Heaton didn't make the cut either, was reading through some of the names before my time and researching them on wiki etc. Used my vote to go with John Shaw after reading about him. Though Moller sounded like a bloody good keeper. Can't argue with a European cup final! Should obviously say the only honours mentioned for these players are their honours collected at City. Edit to say it did look at one point that Dykstra would have made it and as I said in the nomination thread I wish I went for him. Proper Bloke.

ontariored Posted February 8, 2017 Report Share Posted February 8, 2017 Where is Tony Cook who in my opinion was our best ever goalkeeper? 348 appearances between 1952 to 1964 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
