Doubt it if I’ll do another one now, but, if I do, it would be 82/83.Quote:

Dwyer, Brian Clarke, John Toshack, Peter Whittingham would be 4. In my opinion.Quote:

Peter Whittingham and surely Joe Ralls for his service in modern times.

A team of Cardiff City “legends”.
Tom Faquharson (sure I spelt that wrong)
Phil Dwyer, Don Murray, Sol Bamba, Alf Sherwood
Peter King, Fred Keenor, Peter Whittingham, Craig Bellamy,
Earnie, Hughie Ferguson

No way Stansfield over Bamba, but Richards is definitely a contender although it'd probably be for Earnie if it was my choice - when you consider the player Bellamy was when he came here the first time, it was pretty amazing we got him and it was a fantastic gesture for a player so good to come back to his home town club - I don't think too many players would have done the same a shim.Quote:

If not King, I'd probably make a sentimental choice and say Ian Gibson.
Ralls over Bellamy.Quote:

I cant have Bellamy as a legend.
Scott young instead of Bamba?Quote:
