    Although Rambo is special for many reasons, he didnt play that long for us. Id put Carl Dale, Stant or Dwyer ahead of him in the list

    Agreed ... did have Dwyer in my original list.

    Phil Stant ... great servant but old Div 2 / Div 3 levels as was Carl Dale.

    I think Whitts will probably be in everyone's top ten.

    Just seen the video compilation of his goals ... really cheered me up ... reminding me why I support the City.

    Hughie Ferguson - 77 goals in 117 appearances for City, including the FA Cup winning goal (no matter the manner of it).

    Really sad story though committing suicide at 34, leaving a young family, after sinking into depression.

    Everyone loves Kev ... enough to let him shag their wife.

    Chopra was a class act at a relatively high level ... you knew he was going to score 'in a minute'.

    Re: Cardiff City ... legends

    I wouldn't have John Charles on there. He's a legend, but not a City Legend.

    IMO Bellamy was too good for the team. He needed better players around him.

    Had he been with us a season or two earlier we may have consolidated in the Premiership instead of the Swans.

    Ian Gibson?

    Re: Cardiff City ... legends

    Michael Chopra is a City legend. Inspiration on the pitch for me.

    Can't believe no-one has mentioned Ernie.
