For me it should always have been Carey to right back and Vasko on, leaving Elliott in midfield. I wonder if Ivan sprouted attending Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you feel that they deserve it then all well and good. If you feel they don't I would be interested to know why. @frenchredhas given us his reasons, though I am sure he knows I don't agree with him. I know you’re desperately trying to be offended but I suggest you look else where. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dREDful Posted February 16, 2023 Report Share Posted February 16, 2023 Regardless of views on women's football it's probably way too early for a club of that age to have a hall of fame. Sure they might end up being the best times the club ever had but if they go on to be the best side in the world in 20 years then those achievements pale into insignificance.

I don't keep up but heard that The current Bristol City team was, yes, when it formed in 1998. It became independent & rebranded as Bristol Academy in 2005 before being taken over by Bristol Sport sometime in the 2010s then renamed Bristol City in 2015 The current Rovers team that exists now was formed in 2019 Edited February 16, 2023 by shahanshahan 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean you have missed the point by an absolute country mile there if based on the time reference that I don't even know what point you're making. If it's a point on Mickey Bell specifically then, yeh, I dunno if he belongs in a Hall of Fame for Bristol City. There's an argument for him probably, but let's face it we've not exactly been anything more than an average top L1/bottom Championship side on average. But yeh, you'd probably two or three better LBs who should be there ahead of him Edited February 16, 2023 by dREDful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprised that Cole Skuse wasn't on the shortlist, academy graduate, over 250 games and I (think) is in that small group of players to have won both players of the season and young player of the season. Maybe one to consider for a future vote. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All were great players in various years and great history of our club. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who - from that squad/list of names - would be your starting 11 - obviously, we won't have all seen all the players pull on a first team shirt, so indicate if you've seen them play or if you're selecting them based on history and reputation. Feel free to add in a ringer if your formation couldn't be achieved with the names, it might help focus the mind on the missing candidates!
