whittles left foot

Another vote here for Ronnie Blair, but remember a centre half called Bill Cranston being well tough.

Played 2 full seasons together 81/82 and 82/83. I think 28 years counts as 'many a year' and having seen both the other partnerships you mention stand by my comment. Anyway does anybody have an answer?

Reading the Daily Telegraph yesterday there was an article in it about Mark Ward and his recent book. He mentions in it that while he was in Walton at Her Majesty's Pleasure a voice shouted to him and it turned out to be John Ryan. For those of you who are too young to remember him he was a very good left back who formed with Paul Atkinson probably the best left wing/fullback partnership seen at Boundary Park in many a year. Ended up signing for Newcastle. Anybody know what/why John Ryan was in clink?

Lived in Oldham for 33 years always been a Latics fan. Moved to Chester area and season ticket had to go because of work but still going when I can.

Couple of players spring to mind that have'nt been mentioned yet. Derrick Parker, signed from Barnsley, I think by Big Joe in the early days-absolute gash But worse than him, David Currie. remember being at West Brom and somebody shouting out in a lull in the action "Taxi for Currie" Priceless.

Name? Ged Saunders Location? Chester How Long Supporting the Tics? 37 years Best away match you've been to? York City away, Maine Rd semifinals, does Wembley count? All Time Greatest Player? So many, Alan Groves, John Hurst, Simon Stainrod, Roger Palmer, Andy Ritchie. Biggest Rivals (in your eyes)? For now its Tranmere.
