HarryBosch Posted August 20, 2015 Author Share Posted August 20, 2015 It might sound daft but Baxter is up there for me. Great to watch for the short time he was here, a proper footballer. Relentless goalscorer especially considering he wasn't often played as an out and out striker & I genuinely looked forward to going to matches with the chance he might do something special. I feel the same about Dunn and WInchester at the moment albeit they, so far, don't have the goals.... Then there was the fact he signed that deal to do the club that had done him a good turn a good turn back.... Credit to him & his family...

Sheridan too was a pleasure to watch in a team full of absolute :censored:e. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Handsy Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Is it easier to be the stand out player in a :censored:e team or to be the stand out player in a great team I think the later and that's why Andy Ritchie is the best for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarryBosch Posted August 20, 2015 Author Share Posted August 20, 2015 Results – Andy Ritchie, 35 per cent, David Eyres 15, Roger Palmer 13, Rick Holden 11, Sean Gregan 7, Gunnar Halle 4, Earl Barrett 2, Richard Jobson 2. Other votes were cast for John Sheridan, Ian Marshall, Jose Baxter, Mike Milligan, Tony Philliskirk and Chris Taylor. I loved Eyres but - ahead of Palmer & Holden?

He's been a tremendous servant to the club and is a huge asset to the backroom staff. But he was a :censored: player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave_ragg1984 Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 A more interesting vote would have been last 20 years. You know, who was actually decent out of all the crap we've had to watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Sinnott Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Bit of a no brainer this, really. Some 'honorable mentions' but, in reality, nobody really comes close to Ritchie... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boysinblue Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 I voted for Ritchie without a second thought. My hero as a child first going to BP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlayItLivo Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 (edited) Goalkeepers generally don't get much love in these kind of votes but Gary Kelly would be somewhere in my top 5 favourites. Edited August 20, 2015 by PlayItLivo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Sinnott Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Bit of a no brainer this, really. Some 'honorable mentions' but, in reality, nobody really comes close to Ritchie... Despite this, I still voted for Gunnar... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeP Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 A more interesting vote would have been last 20 years. You know, who was actually decent out of all the crap we've had to watch. Chris Taylor (I doubt we'll ever have another player who is both a genuine fan of the club and decent..) and Chris Porter (In the Sheridan play-off season, I thought he would score every week..). Rocket Ronnie Jepson and John Eyre..purely for the songs they were allocated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
