Stu.................regarding your team, Ian Twitchin was NEVER a left back and neither was Jimmy Dunne a wide left sided midfielder.Twitch was a right sided fullback or occasionally a midfielder and Dunney a left sided central defender at his best, and one of the very best we ever had. A pretty mean sweeper too when used in that role and even got his wish as playing up front as a striker on a couple of occasions!
I do feel that when compiling a "best" or "greatest" team players need to be selected in their optimum positions which inevitably means leaving someone out of one position who is far better than someone in another when compared in a "pound for pound" equation.
Sorry Merse but I got a touch of the Buckles and had to play my favourite players out of position ;D
As you can tell my best years were around the time you were at Plainmoor. In fact, as a snotty-nosed teenager I actually spoke to you for a contribution for the weekly mag I did for Torquay Tech to promote TUFC before I joined the RAF
