I always liked "faxe" jensen - in fact I even called my dog faxe after him :oops: :lol: :barscarf:

I also felt that steady eddie got a lot of unfair stick - I still have an old season review video somewhere and he created a load of our goals that season 8)

Alex Manninger was a big favourite of mine and he was an absolutely key player in the run in for the '98 double team :barscarf: I wasnt then and I still aint happy now with the way he was cast aside to bring back in the declining seaman cos my theory has always been that teams should be picked on form not reputation and if a player that is playing out of his skin gets dropped then what does that do for morale ? His performances in mancland and wimbledon away (selhurst park I think) were top top quality 8)

don't trust video highlights...I guess you could make alot of the current lot look better than they are on a highlights video.

Let's get this straight augie. McGoldrick was useless, marked the sort of quality that George was looking for :twisted: , and was a complete and utter :censored: :cussing:

You can't put Romford on this thread. He actually was a good player. 8)

For me cult hero status goes to The Grimster. Single handedly stopped a Dutch spud from scoring the first goal at the Grove. Respectah! 8)

And that look he gave Seamo just afterwards was top quality! :lol: :barscarf:

I also remember "Snowy" McGoldrick's game against Liege. Scored a screamer and set up at least 4 of the 7 we got that night. Unfortunately he turned to absolute shite straight after... :(

And anyone that puts poxy fucking Comedy Eboue on here as a cult hero doesn't know how to spell "cult". The diving cheating fucking mong wanker - the only Arsenal player I have ever actually hated. :evil: :evil: :evil:

DAVID PRICE ;
Loved the man gave everything every time ,best was a goal away to Southampton in the FA Cup on a Monday night where his goal earned us a replay at Highbury in a match we were losing and going under.
This was a very very long FA Cup as we had played Sheff Wednesday Home away and at leicester during a midweek rail strike , I made a lot of coin but also transported thousands to those games.
The replay 2 days later and we won ,went on to win the Cup !
Was a Great man who loved the fans too .

David I salute you !
