Has to be the player with most fire in his belly who would never shirk a challenge. David Cotterell.

I don't think yo've quite got the hang of this.

Please see Sheffsteel earlier post explaining the difference between a cult hero and an out and out hero , which is what the likes of Woody, TC, Dane and Deano all were. Mind you, I'll give you Monty and he was one of mine too.

Andy Morrison.
Went to a party at Bradders brothers house ,Carl introduced me to Morrison said hes moving on to your street and signing for Utd. I didn't believe him but put it on Buvp anyway. Next Saturday he turns out at centre half making me look a proper ITK. He lived there for about a year and off the pitch was a top bloke ,but mad and hard as fuck.

 

[ShockingBadBuy]

If Porter scores we're on the pitch!!

Booker as someone who was at the Mansfield game in the blizzard, has any one match created a cult hero in the same way. I don't count Davison, great performance but you have to have more longevity, although I was there as well loving Bob standing on his seat. Talking of Bob is there a lesson there about supporting players, with his cult status came much improved general performances. he always worked hard even when early on things didn't go well, but with cult status came increased confidence and more quality.

 

[BigBed]

Got to be Dean Hammond!!
No.1 cunt player in my eyes!!

 

[Hillsboro Blade]

Richard Cadette........

 

[Cerberus Blade]

Lillian Nalis.

Eclectic!

 

[dublin 10 blade]

Dane.

Because we all wanted to be like him. Born in the city. Born a Blade. Played for the Blades. Stayed with us.

We may have sung Bob Bookers name more, but for me, always be Dane Whitehouse.

Ya missed the bit about him scoring v the pigs home and away ST .

 

[Dellas Cowboys]

Andy Scott - those goals eh!
