    Loads and loads. Stuart kerr is one guy. I think he has been forgotten but he was so good he was kept and Given punted. Shame his career was ruined after a season due to back trouble. Kerr although really young showed he was developing the rare quality (for Scottish goalies anyway) of being great at crosses, commanding outside the 6 yard box, amazing at one on ones. Not a great shot stopper but he was incredible at the other stuff.

    I think Deeks was/is a mightly clever player who keeps it simply, has great vision and great shot. Its one of the few things I though WGS got wrong was not finding a more central attacking spot for Deeks.

    Mark Wilson is IMO (and apparently in a lot of people in the game) a great player ruined by injury. I think a lot of people cant see his talent and only see the injuries.

    Im like Gunt I can think of loads and loads

    Larsson and Lubo and Jackie McNamara are my top 3 (of the players I'm old enough to remember)

    Jackies first goal in the Scottish Cup final when we won the treble in 2001 is his crowning moment I think

    Brilliant

    Craig Burley, Andy Thom, Marc Rieper, Simon Donnelly and Massimo Donati.
    Liked all of them alot as players but could never really put my finger on why :50: Remember being quite annoyed when Thom and Donnelly left.

    On the Hartson situation before he signed for us, seen this on a programme or read it somewhere that * the Little General was forced to chose between Hartson or Ronald De Boer. Not sure if he failed the medical or not but there were doubts over the condition of his knee`s.

    Dodgy knees or not Hartson done more for Celtic than Ronald De Boer did for them.

    He definitely failed the medical,, I have his book and he says it in it mate:50: Didn't know that the Scum tried to get him from WBA after he left us. Fair play to the man for telling them where to go. Absolute legend!

    I thought this thread was about players you could see something in and had a soft spot for which most people did not share.
