Jimmy Davis was a very good player but not ours,so i don't see how he can be included in this poll. If the Adver are going to use this criteria, we might as well have included Given,Carrick and Nicky Coleman in previous polls.
The best right winger i've see at the Town was Ian Miller.Pace to burn,team player,but with the ability to cross whilst at full pace.The crosses to Andy Rowland on the far post were sublime. Incidentally, he's now coach at Leeds.

My thoughts entirely when I read this Adver bit...also agree that you can't include loan players, Milner was better than Jimmy Davis. Windy was great fun...I don't think David Moss gets a mention and he was seriously good.

I always thought of Mossy as a left winger,admittedly he could play on the right,but he spent most of his career with us and then Luton,playing on the left.A very fine player.

Well for me, I always think of Mossy as more of a right winger, with firstly Tommy Jenkins and then Trevor Anderson more the left sided player, although Trevor Anderson would be more tucked in than line hogger.

There's no way on earth Jimmy Davis should be on the nomination list. He had ability but these pointless lists are surely reserved for those who played more than 13 games for the club - players who played less than 50 should be questioned!

Mossy's hatrick against the Scum on Easter Monday 78,will always hold him in hero status The boy from Witney done good!

One of only two players to score a hat-trick in a Swindon/Scum derby, the other being King Arthur. Oh and Roy Carter never played on the right wing...more of a utility player, he could play out there, but was more often an inside forward, or surprisingly often centre half.

I vaguely remember Miller hugging the touchline in my youth, but of those I remember more clearly, Mark Walters has to come into contention. Equally comfortable on either flank, he possessed a quality that very few Town players of recent years did. It would be criminal if he was wasn't included in at least the nominations.

Good point....I tend to forget those years, as some of our performances were so bad, but Walters was a class act.

I'll back Walters. He livened up a very dull time to be a town fan.
