I hope this works and you can read it, Arron Wilbraham put his list of the best 11 players he''s played with, you guessed it, there''s a lot of Norwich [URL=http://s107.photobucket.com/user/SwindonCanary/media/IMG_0001.jpg.html][IMG]http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m307/SwindonCanary/IMG_0001.jpg[/IMG][/URL]

Hardly surprising when it''s only us (and to a lesser extent Palace) who have been anywhere near the top level out of all the clubs he''s played for!I must admit to being surprised by the inclusion of Marc Tierney at left back, I always thought he was decent and moved on for no apparent reason, guess someone else other than Lambert rated him as well!

Tierney was hopeless in a Hughton team, he was positionally poor, didn''t have the intelligence to stop PL wingers with his back to our goal and wasn''t allowed forward. As we all thought Hughton was a good choice at the time and as he wasn''t tactically sound enough to fit in that system it made sense to move him on.

He was awesome in a pressing, fast countering team though. He could use his pace and great ability to time slide tackles to stop anyone getting past him from deep and he was probably better in an attacking sense than Ollson is! I think like E.Bennet and Pilks though the consistent injuries have finished him as a top level player. If he can''t push his body to out-work the opposition he''s useless.

I think people forget just how good he was in our first PL season though, he was the MOM for me in a lot of our early games and was consistently good all year. He just didn''t have the brain, tactical discipline or patience to play in a Hughton team

[quote user="Splendid Rush"]I''m fairly sure that Mike Flynn played for us as well at some point. I seem t remember watching him for our reserves...[/quote]

indeed he did - proper old school centrehalf, with long throw-ins from memory.
