Shannon Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 What did you all think of the list? Dalglish or Law for number 1? Goram at 5 and Andy Robertson top 10...seem a bit high? Missing a lot of players from 1900-1960..? https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/live/football/53132194/page/4 A couple of my pals did a wee podcast on it and invited me to talk about it [emoji85][emoji23]. Excuse my bad chat and a couple of inaccuracies especially on John Collins, was a bit drunk doing it on a Saturday night. From 15 minutes in. https://open.spotify.com/episode/0S5pzGhsJuQM3rotvxwyIB?si=y_rbJYcyRx2P4DmItjSBHw 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewan14 Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 The list was a bit of a joke. John White was absent , and maybe Edwin Gray as well Andy Robertson is actually in Johnny Giles best ever Liverpool 11 along with the other suspects so his high place has expert support I was pleasantly surprised by our friend Mike English choosing a 3 - 5 - 2 formation but not four of his choices 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewan14 Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 (edited) There are clips on YT of famous players performances in big games. There is one of Denis Law v. West Germany at Hampden in 1969 which is rather good. Unfortunately there is also one of Franz B. in the return game in West Germany. ( I believe the back 4 for this game was Greig McNeil McKinnon and Gemmill ) They might not have covered themselves in glory defending set pieces Edited July 25, 2020 by ewan14 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewan14 Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 Surely Eddie Gray must be the best Scottish winger of ( modern ) times ! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Tout P'ti FC Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 The SFA are doing their own top 50. Willie Miller has just been announced as only 13th best. I'm outraged. I'm going to Park Gardens* to chain myself to a barrier in protest. 10th most capsHall of FameTwo World Cups Two European trophiesThree league wins, five runners upFour Scottish Cups, one runners upThree League CupsOnce played for Peterhead Met me once and probably still tlaks about it to his pals *whatever 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Savage Henry Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 I think it’s safe to say that fans are just voting for their own team’s players. It’s a complete nonsense. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there will be an element of that, but as I said on another thread it was an online poll and therefore the majority of people voting won't have been standing watching Hughie Gallacher with Yer Granda 90 years ago. I reckon that's why there are so many 'modern' players of the last 20 years. Miller, McLeish, Dalglish were all still Scotland caps in my lifetime but I couldn't honestly have voted for them as I have no memory of them playing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 I mean, you've got Darren Fletcher, Joe Jordan and Archie Gemmill in there at #11, #10 and #9. I doubt there are too many fans of the clubs they played for voting in this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 Yep, the SFA list looks broadly accurate and sensible so far, with the caveat that it very understandably has a modern bias. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 Top 3 will probably be Law, Dalglish, Baxter? Not necessarily in that order. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 Top 10 so far: 10. Joe Jordan 9. Archie Gemmill 8. Graeme Souness 7. Billy Bremner 6. Davie Cooper 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
