'when my life is over, the thing which will have given me greatest pride is that I was first to plunge into the sea, swimming freely underwater without any connection to the terrestrial world'
Yves Le Prieur, the real inventor of the aqualung: |

| Quote: Sandra The Terrorist "I've always wondered rover49 was Beetson that great for Rovers, obviously he's a giant of the game but he was only here for one season?'"
He was one of the top 10 players I ever saw in a Rovers shirt, irrespective of how great he was for us. His signing and presence was massive.
There have been so many, It's difficult to pick a list of 10, I suppose leaving out Lockwood, G Smith, Watky, Sully, Fairbairn and others is a hard choice, but we have been fortunate in who we have had over the years. If I was 10 years younger and missed the 60's I suppose the likes of Galea, Newton and Vella might have got in. I think the last three mentioned were probably the most important signings we have made in a long time because in the late 70's and 80's we were 'expected' to sign top quality, whereas in our SL infancy, Galea, Newton and Vella were players we probably didn't have the 'right' to sign.
As far as importance is concerned, I also rate Mark O'Neill as a shrewd bit of business as well. |

Can't believe it took 4 pages before somebody named Millward and Lowe in the same 10,surely the 2 finest players to represent your club |

Best moment for Paul Parker for me was that length of the field try at Spotland.

If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

Well certainly Sir Roger.
I went on people I'd seen play at least a season or two for us, I'm unfortunately not old enough to have seen either play. |

Didn't know that, and as he only played ten games for us as easty says then he must have been a hell of a player to make such an impact.
As I've said, I'm too young to have seen him so I'm happy to go with those who did.
Must have been fantastic at the time to sign a player of his stature. |
