| Might be good to set some criteria for who makes the 22. e.g. If you were doing an 80's/90's one it would be easier. Or club captains. Or local/English born players. Or League/Cup winners.
Everyone has their own pet faves, i.e. Kev Ward, George Mann, Shane Cooper, Dave Fairleigh, Darren Albert, Chris Arkwright. And everyone wants to see great players from their era. But will these be legends or even Hall of Famers in years to come?
I saw my first Saints game in 1985 and wouldn't recognise a pic of Killeen, Coslett, Huddart, Matthias, Pimblett, Watson, Prescott etc even though they are in the Hall of Fame. Then there are younger people who won't remember Loughlin, Veivers, Cooper, Haggerty, Holding, Ward etc.
Just a thought. Set some rules maybe.

True, but on boards like this you might get a bias towards modern-era players.
Them as who put the effort in and the dosh should be them as who has casting vote.
I think it's a fantastic idea by the way.

| Thing is, we aren't going to please everyone.
When It comes down to it, I may seek someone from each Generation to meet in a pub and thrash out a list of names.

Right, so I have gone about picked a 22 off the list, looking at each one on www.saints.org.uk (great site again Fishy and co)
Alex Murphy
Les Jones
Duggie Greenall
Kel Coslett
Alf Ellaby
Roy Haggerty
Paul Wellens
Keiron Cunningham
Billy Benyon
Geoff Pimlett
Tommy Voll
Shane Cooper
Len Killeen
Sean Long
Vinty Karalius
Paul Sculthorpe
Bobbie Goulding
Chris Joynt
Tommy Martyn
Eamonn McManus
Jim Sullivan
Harry Cook
I feel we have covered a broad range of ages, backgrounds and what not.
If anyone can put a compelling argument to me by Tuesday night about a change, then I will alter it. But if we fannied around with who wants what, we would never get this off the forums and onto photoshop (let alone a flag)

Just a thought but is there any real reason why names can't be added under each picture? If as you rightly suggest some people wouldn't recognise pictures of the older players.

Once we come to designing it big enough to send to the manufacterers, we will.

| As I have put on the other board. I am surprised Alan Prescott hasn't been named on the list. Club and country captain - award winner and played on in a test match with a broken arm. The club thought highly of him too as they named a suite in his honour at the club. When we move grounds the suite will be lost but the flag will still be there.
