bristolcitysweden Posted July 27, 2007 Report Share Posted July 27, 2007 Anyone else than John Atyeo would be embarrasing. My runner up is Gerry Gow although not on the list which is unbelievable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chowie Posted July 27, 2007 Report Share Posted July 27, 2007 think he means other than Ateyo, so you win tickets for the all star game, how are they going to choose the teams? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Picking ten to help us, who know far more than they about this club, is ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristol Boy Posted July 27, 2007 Report Share Posted July 27, 2007 Atyeo.Best Ever.......not bad for a semi pro or even Amateur.Some of todays pampered stars could learn some lessons in humilty, loyalty, honesty & football from this true giant.

Rob k Posted July 27, 2007 Report Share Posted July 27, 2007 I don't like all this all time best - i never had the good fortune of watching the likes of ateyo, Galley etc so my best 11 would only come from the very late 80s + as i can only comment on what ive seen.

bemmie red Posted July 27, 2007 Report Share Posted July 27, 2007 personally am voting for the tinman - yes his achivements aren't on a par to atyeo but i really think the award to him will help his rehabilition to being a city legend after his disasterous crack at management.come on you know it makes sense!

Those of us old enough to have seen him play, know that if he had continued then there is every chance that he would have genuinely challenged Ateyo's standing as City's all time legend - if we could have kept hold of him.

GrahamC Posted July 28, 2007 Report Share Posted July 28, 2007 Soapbox time!I know I'm in the minority, but Dziekanowski played 38 games for us and scored a grand total 8 league goals (all at home), despite the hype (which seems to have increased since he left), his contribution for us was in fact absolutely minimal, statistically it is on a par with Iain Baird.How on earth can he (or the excellent Goater, who played just 75 games for us) possibly be on a list that excludes Gow, Sweeney, Merrick, Collier or Whitehead?Rob Newman, Gary Shelton and Bob Taylor of the superb 89/90 era, plus Shaun Taylor are all more deserving of a place, too.Utter nonsense.I am too young to have seen Atyeo, though his record speaks for itself, but I'd choose Gow, just ahead of Tom Ritchie.
