Life is a game of inches, so is football. Because in either game - life or football - the margin for error is so small. I mean, one half a step too late or too early and you don't quite make it. One half second too slow, too fast and you don't quite catch it. The inches we need are everywhere around us. On this team we fight for that inch. On this team we tear ourselves and everyone else around us to pieces for that inch. We claw with our fingernails for that inch. Because we know when add up all those inches, that's gonna make the difference between winning and losing! Between living and dying! You've got to look at the guy next to you, look into his eyes. Now I think ya going to see a guy who will go that inch with you. Your gonna see a guy who will sacrifice himself for this team, because he knows when it comes down to it your gonna do the same for him. That's a team, gentlemen. TONY D'AMATO:

Others I personally enjoyed watching

Steve Evans
Paul Rose (wish we had one like him now, his performance versus Oz was legendary, think he punched everyone in the squad that night)
Tony dean
Keith Tindall
Charlie Stone , (who will ever forget that Cumberland throw tackle of his)
Ronnie the wildman
Andy Dannatt
Birdsall
Jon Sharp
Shane mac
Chris Chester

but few ever got real recognition nationally.

This will be a bit controversial but I've had a long hard think about what 'best' actually means, I think whilst knocker was very influential and a great great player those above him were actually better players..IMO of course
