UP THE BLADES

 

[Linz]

I take it these legends don't actually have to be any good, just achieve legendary status?

You dissing the legend Bobby Ford??

 

[Samantha]

You dissing the legend Bobby Ford??

He presented my Record of Achievment! What a Leg-end!!!!

 

[Linz]

You dissing the legend Bobby Ford??

Nah... how could I diss someone who honestly looks so bemused when his attempted cross actually fooled the keeper and ended up in the back of the net?

haha you got it

 

[SouthEssexBlade]

Didn't his wife open a re-hab somewhere??

 

[I Love Chip Butties]

but he was a great penalty taker . .

even if thats the only time he touched the ball in the game!

 

[Jack & Helga]

I'd swap Sandford for Booker and definitely make room for Glyn Hodges

I remember the Hat-Trick he got against bury, and then was sent off in the next game i think it was, he then got injured and barely ever played for us again.

Loved the Kat,

[SouthEssexBlade]

You can just about tell the age of people by these legends teams

 

[TonyAgana]

Got to have Wilf Rostrum in there! Has there been a player since him called Wilf?

Would also include Dane Whitehouse - not for sentimental reasons, just because he is a genuine Blades legend.

 

[jodman]

My team would be as follows, attacking it may be but i cannot seperate the 3 forwards and so they all made it in.

Alan Kelly(GK)
Vass Borbokis(RB)
Paul McGrath(CB)
Phil Jagielka(CB)
Del Geary(LB) - Technically a right back but its my team!
Glyn Hodges(CM)
Michael Tonge(CM)
Michael Brown(CM)
Dean Saunders(ST)
Jan-Aage Fjortoft(CF)
Brian Deane(CF)

Bent
Deane

Good call about Bent. I reckon he was one of the most naturally talanted forwards weve had since I started watching United. Trouble is that he seemed to spend all his time in a strop with Devlin, he didint have the impact of Hulse, Deane, Fjortoft or even Blake.

I had trouble thinking of creative midfielders. Defensively it was a tough choice between Booker, Patterson and McCall. Perhaps I should have moved Hodges inside.

 

[S64 Blade]

Yeah think Bent got 17 for us in about half a season.
