[I should coco]

Woody an TC should be in their as favourites and not just best.

Matthews well past it so I'd slip MacPhail in there.

Loved McCall and the Chief too.

Monty too, more to piss off the forum tikka takka police.

McCall would definitely be in the squad. But I already had Fleck so I can't have two Rangers fans in my team

this team took us to 6th in div 1 1974, only 1point short of europe and 4 points short on league champions-always close to my heart this side

nostalgic table, off course a year on we hit the black hole.
imagine the excitement at the time with so many clubs involved in the race, sadly these days will never return

Basing mine pretty much on the memories. Borbokis wasn’t exactly the best right back in terms of defending but getting forward and his free kicks/goals stand out.

Kelly
Borbokis, Morgan, Jagielka, Harley
Ndlovu, Brown, McCall, Whitehouse
F’jortoft, Peschisolido

Holdsworth could have been in there for his goal against Coventry, Tonge in 02/03 was class as well.

 

[SwissBlade]

Such a tough one...

3 Nilsen
4 Fleck
5 Morgs
6 McGrath
7 Bradders
8 Brown
9 Ched
10 Sharp
11 Whitehouse

I'm clearly not one for a lot of pace.

Mine has updated from this thread

https://www.s24su.com/forum/index.php?threads/your-favourite-blades-xi.49868/

Coutts in for Booker, Billy in for Deano. Morgan and Bryson make way from the bench while Fleck and Duffy make the bench in addition to those dropping out the first xi.

I just love this current team I could make a case for all of them.

Des Thompson, Heaton, Barlow, Montgomery, that bloke who did the unseen work...

You get my drift?

Oh, and Guthrie and Rush up front,

Oh, and Faulkner

Nearly forgot that twat Thompson...

D'Jaffo.

 

[Deleted member 875]

D'Jaffo.

The Lion of Hillsborough.

That is always the first thought that comes in to Brownies mind when I hear the name D'jaffo.

Brownies memory bank also inform Brownie that the aforementioned Lion, was a big, slow, cumbersome and immobile forward who would also pop up with a scruffy goal here and there, and would very rarely leave the pitch having not given it his all.

Brownie can also recall a rumpus at a game versus Wolves where he the Lion threatened to thump a Wolves player,

 

[bornandbred]

I'll have to have a good think but my initial thought is of a central defence of Joe Shaw and Morgs.No one would get passed.

Subs: A Kelly Hemsley Colquoun Fleck Coutts Duffy Agana M Jones Edwards and Pesky for that late magic winner.

He was subbed and famously marched on the pitch in his suit and best loafers at the end of the game and scared the living daylights out of the Wolves player.

Man Utd not even in the division..
football is cyclic.. in 30 years time Wolverhampton Wanderers will be dominating football and Man Utd will be living on past memories again
