All time Mariners best XI

[localpom]

All time not-so-best XI.... 4-3-3

--------------------Nash-----------------------
McClenahan---Doig---O'Grady---D'Apuzzo
Travis-------------Huke----------------Elrich
Medja-------------Sutton---------------Wolfe
Subs - Reddy, Baird, Owens???, Tadrosse??

Some of these a bit harsh, Most of these guys had injury problems.. Doig was good just had an injury and there was real competition for his possie. O'Grady was a rock. Travis...good player dodgy attitude. Huke had talent, Mrjda when fit for the first 2 seasons was arguably the best striker we ever had. After that .....well less said the better. D'Puzzo was young and if he stayed would have developed into a decent player with us. Sutton ironically is the 2nd top scorer ( I think) in the SPL! Go figure.

actually he's 3rd in the SPL with 5 goals from 9 games

The 2 CB's was the hardest choice - perhaps harsh on O'Grady and Doig, but we've had such quality at the back and I had to pick 2.

Just goes to show you how good Arnie really is then...

Great post but off the mark with Doig and Travis....both good quality players. Disco was half decent too....for all his faults.
Gallagher was shocking from the two games I saw. Owens was clearly a mug and I remember a shocking left back (chocko chap) that I think played 1 game.

Andrea Merenda, anyone?

Wolfry Wolfe.

"Chocko"? Why not "darkie" or "wetback"? FFS.

He wasn't Mexican and he wasn't Black.

No McDonald played one game and looked quite decent. This was maybe season 2 or 3.

 

[bikinigirl]

[Wombat]

Bikini girl ....you are a smart cookie!

That's the man. Terrible player

 

[Wombat]

There was also a Welsh player we had in maybe season 5 who was pretty ordinary. What was his name BG?

 

[UnitedsNo9]
