Interesting to see players featuring with more than one club - John Brogan with three by my count: his finest hour surely the cup demolition of our near neighbours over two legs.

Team : Scotland
He played against England?

I'm not a fossil unlike some of my City counterparts ( ) so my XI is only from 1998.

Craig Nelson

Jamie Smith - Harry Cairney - David White - Callum Booth

Charlie King - Garry Brady - Darren Smith

Chris Templeman - Roddy Grant - Rory McAllister

Went for a 4-3-3 because I don't think we've been particularly blessed with excellent central midfielders, underlined by the fact I've included a player who has only played about a dozen times for us! We've also had a ridiculous amount of top strikers.

Notable mentions for Derek Soutar, Scott Walker, Kevin Fotheringham, Marc Millar, Scott 'the train' McCulloch, Kevin Byers, Darryl Duffy, Iain Russell, Roddy Black, John Dickson, Gary Twigg, Michael Paton and Steven Hampshire.

Boghead Ranter - my team is, and always has been, the Wee Rovers: I must have missed a box when I signed up and as an old fart don't know how to change it. Tell me how and I'll do it.

sorry dude, was just pulling your leg.

Click on "signed in as fineen2" at top left of page, then 'my profile'
then, click on "Edit my profile" towards the top right of that page.
then, towards the bottom of the page that opens up, there's a section for Team, that should let you take Rovers from the drop-down menu.

Going to show my age here but....

GK: Ian Macfarlane - Nutter as has already been said. He was capable of some fantastic saves...but also headbutted Jim McIntyre.

RB: Ray Montgomerie - more known as a Killie leg-end but was a great full back for us a number of years at Boghead.
LB: Craig Brittain - nippy, tenacious and could actually defend. Scored a few goals too. Only issue was height.
CB: Paul Martin - Old school no nonsence big man centre half. Only issue was gingerness.
CB: Martin Melvin - A classic combo with Martin. He was the smaller of the two but more mobile and a better "footballer".

MID: Allan Moore - Played out wide in midfleid he was only there a short while but looked a real class act.
MID: Hugh Ward - Classic old skool wee skinny tanner baw wide man.
MID : Jim Chapman - Again, he didn't play that many games but looked a class act.
MID : Murdo McLeod - Even in his mid/late thirties he looked head and shoulders above the rest.


FW: Paddy Flannery - Goals to games ratio over the last few decades is second to none and that's despite a slow start.
FW: Charlie Gibson - God. End of.

Subs from the likes of Gerry McCoy, John Bourke, Owen Coyle, Tom Coyle, Roland Fabianni, Harry Curran,Neil Collins and Donald McNeill.

No issue with the pony-tail?! Fortunately that's long-gone, replaced with a sensible, though still ginger, crewcut.

[PWL]

Ha ha. It was a sensible short back and sides with us. The Alice band and pony tail period was post Boghead.

Obviously you have went for loan signings and on Rodriguez on current form, he hardly got a game for the albion that season, scary to think that actually

mind the midfielder, Landre Zhani Oni, cant spell his name, he was decent flash in the pan signing back in the day!

Just for fun I thought of picking a midfield of "Charlies". In addition to Charlie King and Charlie Elvin, I could have added Charlie Dunn and Charlie Adam.

Very strange seeing eadie as a sub but i suppose we saw the full potential. Should have played at a higher level if his work wasn't more important.

This thread is favourite players, eh? There's a difference between "favourite" and "best".

- Colin Cramb - Scott Dalziel - John Dempster -

- Paul Murphy - Eric Paton - Iain Thomson - Andy Brand -

- Willie Lyle - Ross McMillan - John McKeown

- Scott Bennett -

An unorthodox 3-4-3 formation, but this bunch are the ultimare saucy boys.
