| No Imre Varadi. What fun we used to have with that song. All together now... 'Imre, Imre Varadi, Imre Varadi, Imre Varaaaadi, hey.' Repeat till voiceless.
Oh, and has nobody mentioned the Mighty Quinn yet. That boy scored goals, saved penalties and had the best song the Prem has ever heard. What a star. (Actually on second thoughts, don't have Quinny in your team. It will cost you a fortune in icing. Pick Dickov instead. Much cheaper. 
My, the names are endless. Kaz Deyna. An honour to see him in a blue shirt. Asa Hartford. As good a midfielder as there was. Of course, the manager has to be Joe Mercer. The greatest man football ever had the honour of knowing.
Still, lets face it, these players are going to be on a cake. Just stick numbers 1-11 on their backs. They're all gonna look the same anyway, regardless of who they're supposed to be.

| Steve Daley, Kevin Reeves, Barry Silkman, Steve McKenzie and Mick Robinson
That era was the start of our decline, although I quite liked Robinson, he didn' produce much but at least he tried hard. Daley was a joke, Silkman was yer original cockney wideboy, I met him once at the Player of the Year do in the old social club I'm sure I checked my pockets after I'd spoken to him. Kevin Reeves cost £1m but couldn't play because Manchester was too far from Norwich and in my view, Steve McKenzie was chucked in too early £250,000 for a teenager at that time was an amazing amount of money. The BBC in their wisdom seem to forget he scored a better goal than Ricky Villa in the '81 cup final reply but he never gets a mention.
Chillidog - good call on Kazui Deyna, what a player RIP. I once heard that Big Mal never wanted him to take any free kicks, can't see the big man's logic there as he was brilliant at them. Beckham and Roberto Carlos don't come close to his success rate.
If at first you don't succeed pull your foreskin over your heed. |

| | What a player Deyna was - and we didn't see the best of him by a long chalk. I only discovered that he had died in a car accident during a previous bout of nostalgia on this forum. Big Mal said that McKenzie was the best young player in Europe. I think Silkman is a football agent now, so your analysis of him is spot on! I remember collecting football stickers back then and City had an Irish winger called Jimmy Conway on the books. Never knew whether he even got a game. Was he any good?
We are all in the gutter but some of us are looking at the stars |
