How can you even class most of them as "players" and where is Kilgannon?
That is quite a horrendous team. Not least because Paul Hilland is at right back and you've got Todd Lumsden on the left!
However, your inclusion of Ramiro is disgraceful! He was a fantastic goalkeeper. He was a nutter, and made a few shockers, but he was a better goalkeeper than Rudy Pounasammy!

2) It was so long ago everyone's forgotten
3) Football really has got that bad over the last 10 to fifteen years
4) A combination of the above.

Deano was horrendous as I recall and was worse than useless on crosses, maybe he was your hero becasue he got sent off that time at Arbroath for punching Craig Cooper (?) in the pus for diving for a penalty.
Bowes was a personal thing as I just didn't like him
Meldrum was a good goalie but a scumbag to the Loons.
Iain Good is a surprise to me as he was pretty solid and has done a decent job at Peterheid - there are far worse Forfar centre halves to pick from through the anals (sic) of of our history. ditto Morris who was decent too i thought.

Yeah picked Meldrum cause he was an erse.
Nah Deano was good, I was young at the time, was that the game Stevie Raynes went in goal? Still liked him all the same.
Never liked Good but he was in a successful team but I stick by to decision of Morris, thought he was poor.
