Peter McParland and Gerry Hitchens, can't split them.

In later years Bruce Rioch.

Think my brother's was Archie Hunter

[Breezeblock]

Brian Little

[eamonn]

Properly, Dwight Yorke. But Daley and Dalian before him were up there. And God, moreseo for his Irish heroics (clearly didn't fully appreciate him as a 6-12 year old...in my defence, which kid does appreciate defenders?)

Andy Gray and Brian Little for me too. I also liked John Deehan at that time but not as much as the other two.

The other day I checked up on Mark Hateley, and was shocked to see that he's 59 and his son Tom (currently playing in Cyprus) 31.

Sir Brian

[Scratchins]

Gerry Hitchens.  Cried my eyes out when he went to Italy.

[dave shelley]

Peter McParland and Gerry Hitchens, can't split them.

In later years Bruce Rioch.

Same here although for me Gerry just shaded it.  Peter Mac took over the instant Hitchens left and I stopped crying.
