Teuchterjambo Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Stanley Matthews must rate as one of the greats - played for Stoke City in a challenge match in the 1960's, he was in his late 40's at the timeand still playing top class football.

Effervesance Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Laudrup, gazza and larsson Those three in my lifetime. I'd like to add Di Canio but only started liking him when he signed for West Ham. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Templeton'sUnderpants Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Folk on the facebook page seem to either not know what the Away dressing room is or not know what Tynie is.... As for my suggestion, Claudio Caniggia? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sydney Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 In modern times Laudrup, Gazza and Larsson. Maybe Butcher, Souness, Dalglish, Baxter, Johnstone, from previous eras. Not one of the best players, but one of the best performances was by Mark Walters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jambo Ell Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Ginola and Beardsley i think played in friendlies against us for Newcastle at Tynie. Along with the others mentioned above.

You are right. I was there and you are right about his class that day, it stuck out like a mile and if I remember correctly he looked about 60 I seem to remember him making one run half the length of the pitch and the crowed going daft in a jovial type of manner.

gorgie_rebel Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Whenever I'm asked this kind of question about great players I've seen at Tynecastle I always think back to a tournament played I think at the start of the 79/80 1st Div winning season called the Skol Festival Cup or something like that. It was a mini pre season tournament with Us, Hibs, Man City and Coventry. It was one of the few times me and the auld man went to football together (he was still very much Tynie one week Easter Road the next with his mates out on the piss kind of thing which used to be the norm for a lot of working men) Anyway I digress Playing for that Coventry team was a youth player just breaking through at the time and the day they played at Tynecastle this guy was head and shoulders above everyone on the park and anything I'd ever seen at football before. I remember him getting a standing ovation from the crowd that day. His name? Mark Hateley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
