"Only" started watching the reds in 1980 so missed the great 1978 side but this is my greatest 11 since then

GK : Andy Marriott

RB : Carlos Edwards
CB : Gareth Davis (c)
CB : Tony Humes
LB : Joey Jones

M : Peter Ward
M : Mike Lake
M : Darren Ferguson

S : Gary Bennett
S : Dixie McNeil
S : Karl Connolly

Actually giving myself a hard on thinking about that team on the pitch at the same time at their peak then remembered what we've got now and it's soon disappeared

well done poethlyn I thought no one was going to mention Smallman. However trouble is a lot of the younger fans didn't see him play.

Unfortunately I am not old enough to have seen the great team of the 70s, or players like Mickey T at his peak. Its mostly a mix of Flynns team who narrowly missed out on play offs to the 1st Division (as it was by then) in the mid 90s, and Dennis Smiths team. Some great memories watching those teams.
