an old fc programme from a car boot yesterday and looking at the team i were impressed by the quality ov the players we had at the time......the squad in 81/82 were :clive sullivan,lee crooks,sammy Lloyd,keith tindall,gary kemble,mick sutton,charlie stone,paul prendiville,james leuluai,mick crane,ian madley,trevor skerrett,dane o`hara,steve norton,chriss harrison,graham walters,tony dean,david topliss,ronnie wileman,clive pickerill........some legends there.

how much out of interest,i have 100s in the loft gathering dust!!

20p each they were(i bought 4) 2 were yorkshire cup programmes(not finals).

Stop it,I am breaking up.

lol...i thought as i read the squad...why cant we have the quality ov those players now

I know the sport has changed since then, but fitness apart, for Mick Crane in particular

, I reckon nine of those players would walk into any SL team.

By a country mile,the greatest squad of players to wear the Black and White

1984-85 was better, IMO.

84-85 the team was in decline. Too many players past their best. Sterling pretty much carried the team to Wembley on his shoulders

I work with Mick now got some great stories from his playing days

Absolutely,to quote a saying,some of our current players arn`t fit to lace their boots.

I'd even go far as to say 10.
Sully - try scorer extrodinaire
Crooks - tackles, offloads, kick goals what more do you want from a forward
Tindall - proper grafter
Kemble - greatest 1 on 1 tackler, uber reliable under high ball, attack return. well just immense
lullaby - could waltz his way through a defence
Craney - super gifted player & a decent tackler.
Skerrett - one of the best Hull forwards ever especially in defence.
Knocker - cream of the cream
Toppo - would look like superman in todays game with his skills
Dean - very much underated & great exponent of the DG
