This is a really good debate. If you were to go back a long time then Alan Williams would be my number one. And if paired with Earl Barrett then Latics would probably have conceded nine goals all season. I am deeply worried about this season. Gregan and Hazell have absolutely no understanding and when you bring into the argument the ridiculous number of times they get into a pantomime scenario with the goalkeeper the portents for disaster are dire. 5-3 and 4-2 could be regular scorelines - for and against.

Hi, my first ever posting as a new member! I wish this particular debate had gone back to the 60s because then we would create the dilemma of including Colin Whitaker in this impressive list. Always a cert to beat the right back, a good cross assured and ace strikers like Bert Lister served on a plate. Ah, the memories. Incidentally Latics had a great right winger called Bob Ledger in those days so they were very well served. And the crowds...14,000 or so for a lowly and relatively unattractive fixture!
