Best Centre Halves (Pick 2)

[Andyt84]

Earl the pearl and fitz hall for me. Would love to have those two in the same team.

[Killens_physio]

What about Steve Redmond? Worth a mention just for hacking Dean Saunders shot off the line in the Villa game at the start of our Great Escape!

Where has all this............................"if you dont say Barrett and Jobson" you are a :censored:ing pig's bell-end come from?

 

The reason for the question is surely to see what people view's are?

 

It's an open forum!

I know. It's Barrett and Gregan, or you are an uneducated goat-:censored:er

[Tommy_Fent]

Richard Jobson and Fitz Hall

[Laticacid]

Jobbo n Barrett are the best 2 on the list , but Gregan was a rock for us , so any 2 from those 3

[Canada_latic]

Can't believe I missed Andy Holden - boll

Shame on you. Jobbo and Earl for me, followed closely by Fleming.

[Stagger Lee]

Kenny Clements

Paul Futcher

 

Paul Futcher got called into the England squad and may have even played a friendly game for England - all based on his form for Latics

 

So why has he got so few votes?

Strewth we have had some classy centre halves over the years

[Stevie_J]

Where's the Marcus Holness option?

[oafc1955]

Barrett's recoverys from goal conceding situations are legendary and Warhurst was easily the quickest and calmest player on the ball I've ever seen at the club...his acceleration from standing start was unreal...one of the best players I have ever seen at the club.

 

It has to be these two for me and in their pomp wouldn't have looked out of place in the England back four!

[oafcprozac]

Loving the arguments I've caused on these threads.....

Earl and Jobbo were class without a doubt, but Gregan was the only player on the park that gave a :censored: in Shez's latter months and Penney's era. A fantastic skipper, great football brain (even though the legs were going when he got to us). In fact after some of those dross games the only reason I stayed to the end was to clap him off the pitch. And he was the only player at that time who understood how bad things were but took the time after every game to salute the fans in each stand for their support.Top, Top player. So LJ a 23 year old Gregan on your shopping list please.

A 23-year-old Gregan would be playing regularly in the top flight.

Barrett, Jobbo, Feming, Linighan. Where are they now?

I went for Barrett and Jobbo - but the mention of Clements and Futcher take me back to when I first watched Latics (and defender were allowed to tackle people at that time) - Clements in fact was my first big Latics hero him and Roger Palmer :-))

[Ogdenwoodwhittle]

Paul Edwards .. David Holt ?? Good honest defenders but for sheer class that transferred to Prem level Warhurst and Barrett followed by the man marking skills of Fleming. Do remember Bill Cranston hoofing ball into the Ford Stand car park every game to waste time-no 'Fergie time ' in those days..

Yes Futcher, Clements and Warhurst are only a shade behind Earl and Jobson for me
