Top 50 Blades players

[shorehamview]

Some of you know, some of you don't, but I am a part time media whore. I write the Sheffield United bit for The Times' Fanzine Fanzone. I generally just write any old bollocks, but they've asked me to do a piece about the 50 best ever Blades players.

So who is your favourite player? Who should be on the list? I don't want the reason why, just who you think. I've already got a good idea for most of them, but there might be a few who I've not thought about.

I'll start off with the obvious ones.

TC.

Deane.

Jags.

So who else can you think of? Thanks for the help, and there will be a big thanks at the end of the article.

Peter Beagrie......what a great player!

Got a video somewhere in the cupboard of Beagrie scoring two belters for us against Hull city from 1986, think the game was on boxing day. We won the game 4-2 I think and Dempsey and daws got the other two.
Both goals by Beagrie were from 20 plus yards after beating 2 or 3 Hull players. It was only Beagries two wonder strikes that made me buy this video!!!
