Had a quick scan and off the top of my head can't believe Barry Howard, John Hughes, Tony Broadhead, Ian Morris, Mal Bailey, Mickey Brooke, Phil Smith, Graham Heathcote, John Rogers and Barry Whitbread don't figure - they all played for other clubs in the NPL. John Owens another omission?

Good suggestion. When he left us in 1992, he spent two years at Barrow who had just been relegated to the NPL.

Ah Youngy.....yes I was definetly in a minority when I came on this very forum and said I thought he was a player....seem to remember I was ridiculed...then Youngy scored a fantastic chest down control swivel and shoot goal.......
.....then he was gone....

I'll admit everyone else had the last laugh on that one...

This poll is a joke really isn't it....it's being filled in by people who never even had a zx spectrum or recorded the top 20 on a cassette recorder....
