My greatest Lions

[mickynomates]

Couldn't sleep night so tried to think of the greatest Lions I have watched over past 70 years.
Here goes.
Alec Stepney
Ray Evans Colin Cooper Barry Kitchener Ben Thatcher
Keith Weller Terry Hurlock Tim Cahill
Teddy Sheringham Tony Cascarino Jimmy Carter

Sorry I had to omit Bryan King and Gordon Hill.
Next time I will try for worst team.
Already got Pat (the cat) Cuff Brian Dear Paul Goddard and most of hollowheads players.
Who can forget Ryan Woods.

Great team but for me the two you left out would be in, two of my favourite players to wear the shirt.

Fat Sam, he was like an oil tanker turning.

Jon Moore is easily the worst defender i have ever seen at Millwall.

I can.

Wasn't he the one whose own goal got Knotts Forrest promoted on the last day of the season, bringing them on the path to greatness?

Yes 1977. He ended up at Gravesend.

 

[mickynomates]

Wasn't he the poor sod that committed suicide?

That was Jon Lyon’s. Very good striker for us.

Think that's a team full of honour and goes a long way to be the greatest with the exception of Judas cascarino, who should never be forgiven for his comments a year or two back. His actions were completely the act of a cunt and should never be included in any team of our giants of football. Perhaps have Harris in there for his playing attributes.

 

[Lionchel]

My favorite player was Alan Dorney, the only defender I know who would take players on in OUR penalty box

 

[PurleyLion]

King
Cunningham, Hurley, C Cooper, Thatcher
Weller, Cahill, Rae, Gordon Hill
Sheringham, Possee

Blasphemy no Hurlock!

Me too.

Old school. No nonsense.

 

[PurleyLion]

Blasphemy no Hurlock!

Nor Kitchener, Harry, Briley, Rhino et al. All club legends but those I picked had the same heart and courage but that little bit more creative ability

In a typical season I’d expect the front six in my selection to score circa 110 goals
