Oh shit, I still remember the last minutes of the 0-3 defeat to Bournemouth.

Ronnie Reinelt must be mentioned. I know Craig Maskell made the goal but ....

I'll walk a million a miles to see one of your goals, Charlie .... probably had to as well. Where is Sir Norman Gall ?

Elliott Bennett 2009-2011

 

[Cantona's Flying Dropkick]

G___? M____?

who?

 

[Taybha]

some great names on that list , love how you have left Lawrenson out as if it never happend , and good to see Moseley on the list , who i thought was a superb keeper , that save in the fa cup semi at highbury hardly got a mention but kept us 2-1 up and was stunning . one name i would of added is Gary Hart .

 

[Cantona's Flying Dropkick]

Hans Kraay

 

[Grassman]

Hans Kraay

I'll add this. No Hans Kraay and no Mark Lawrenson, or even Mark Gall, but you've put down Graham Barrett? Jesus.

Paul Clark

 

[Seagull on the wing]

Barry Rees....wonderkid!

 

[dejavuatbtn]

Ian (Reggie) Goodwin - the man was a colossus

 

[BLOCK F]

Norman Gall,Wally Gould ,Bobby Baxter,Stewart Henderson,Brian Powney etc.
Frank Worthington 1984/85 ??Reincarnation!

 

[Bakesy]

Where's ERIC POTTS........SUPERSUB?

 

[Austrian Gull]

John Byrne?

Mike Small?

 

[lighthouse]

Jesus.

Blimey, when did he wear the blue and white stripes?!

A great list Mr Viva Calderon. Clearly this is a very personal viewpoint as to who you consider memorable or not.

For me I would add Alex Dawson (for his frequent attempts at barging the goalies across the line!) Neil McNab was a bit of a favourite, and of the recent era I could not omit the one and only Gary Hart.

 

[Quinney]

Wendy Wilkins & Perry Digweed were certainly memorable, not sure for entirely the right reasons.

That's being very generous to suggest Maskell made the goal unless you genuinely believe he intentionally hit the post!!!
