Tom Jones, shearer, Gittens, calderwood, taylor, horlock... haven't been many heros since then! But my first would have to be calderwood I reckon.
Hoddle was different class though

Calderwood for me too. And Bamber. Loved his lanky ways. And his long hair. And his dribbling, long-headers, and ability to fall over like a gangly girl every time he got in the box.
Favourite shout from the old North Stand (where I sat when I was a kid):
"YOU GREAT BIG FAIRY BAMBER!"

Gotta be Horlock, Taylor and Jan the Man..... I was also nuts about Luc Nijholt due to the sheer commitment on display every week.

My Auntie has a sheep called Peter Thorne because of me  I used to love Frazer Digby and was in total awe of his wife with her fur coats and Louis Vutton bags Tracey....legend for having a punch up with Ross MacClaren's missus. Tracey - top bird for showing me her tits in the apartment one night a couple of years ago - that was a drunken night !!! Gotta be the best strikeforce ever to play together on the CG turf in my 37 years..... Andy and Alan (Rowland and Mayes) PROPER PROPER LEGENDS !!! |

Shit team ? Semi Final of the League Cup - Only Andy (the wanker) Gray stopping us from Wembley - 10,000 Swindon fans at Wolves.... Beating Arsenal at the CG in front of 28,000 people - narrowly losing to Spurs the same season in the FA Cup at the CG.... Jimmy Allen in goal, Russell Lewis, Kenny Stroud, Brian Williams, Ian Miller, Ray McHale  Shitty team ? No my friend - a very good team - and some great memories !!! |

Imho a shit team - a great cup run but that affected our league form and most of those (admittedly good) players had gone by the start of the following season and I thought we were better 79-80 anyway. Was the start of a very dark period |
