Sydney Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Wallace, Naysmith, Fyssas, McKinlay - we've had a few good ones over the years. Whittaker was only good with a headband and playing at centre back. Pointon was decent. I think Tosh was my favourite, but Fyssas was the best.

SRC HMFC Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Fyssas by a mile, one of the classiest players ever to play in the SPL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardiac Rucksack Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 I think tosh was the most underrated. fyssas a class above. Gary naysmith for me though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jambo Ell Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 When we signed Mahe I thought he would be over the hill but he put in some very good performances too. I remember he had a rampaging run down the left flank and put in a beauty of a cross for Mark De Vries to head home the winning goal in Mahe's last game for us. I think Fyssas is probably my favourite just for the rapport he had with the fans and the way he took to us despite only being here for a short period of time.

lewis2006 Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 I highly doubt we will ever see a player of Takis' class ever again at Tynecastle. A true gent. There are very few role models in the game nowadays but Takis was certainly one of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Say What Again Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 McKinlay for me. After years of suffering watching Brian Whittaker (God rest you, Rodge), Tosh was different class. Like night and day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavieG Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Left back has generally been a position of strenght for us since I started following the team, Davie Holt, Arthur Mann, Peter Oliver, Dave Clunie, Tosh McKinlay, Neil Pointon, Gary Naysith, Takis Fyssas and Lee Wallace were all quality. Before that we had Tam MacKenzie and George Thomson, both highly regarded. Takis and Gery Naysmith were my favourites though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William H. Bonney Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Pointon for me. Not the best but still remains one of my favourite hearts players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mysterion Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Fyssas looked a class above what we'd been used to and was a joy to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deevers Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Big Tam McKenzie - the only left back in Scotland that could play Gordon Smith off the park. I would have to say that Fyssas was the most classy left back that I've ever seeing gracing the maroon jersey. Brilliant, dependable and he obviously enjoyed playing for us.

jambonian Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 In order from most fav... Takis Fyssas Gary Naysmith Neil Pointon Tosh McKinlay Lee Wallace Stephane Mahe Brian Whittaker Danny Grainger (if he's as consistant as he has been so far he could become a fav) Peter Shields (or was it Pat Byrne?) get these two fullbacks mixed up.

The Treasurer Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Pointon came over as a real "character" as well as being a good player Takis was probably the best I've seen but a special mention must go to Naismith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fort Vallance Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Peter Oliver. Just because he was the first I remember and just looked a player. Then Takis, Tosh, Naysmith in that order Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Bill Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Takis is his first season was the best but Lee Wallace in his pomp was my personal favourite. Wallace was great when running full tilt at the opposition box, and I'll miss seeing that again. Strangely, I was never a big fan of Tosh McKinley. .

reaths17 Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 kenny black started off at left back and wasn't to bad and sandy burrell looked a good one until injury finished him early in his career but fyssas was pure class. peter oliver was very good, strange he left us for lowly york city, thought he was better than that tosh was excellent, naysmith good potential but we never got the best of him everton got that whittaker wasn't as bad as some say, though his best goal against celtic was a pure fluke goerge cowie wasn't to bad for an understudy at the time and neil pointon was a great signing for the dosh we spent. never seen much of peter sheilds, he was no bad, davie clunie, roy kay, jim brown all had spells there without ever looking convincing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winningways Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Naysmith for me although like many other posters Takis will remain a firm favourite of mine.

gorgie_rebel Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Loved Kenny Black at LB for Hearts. Turned in some brilliant performances there Tosh McKinlay was another favourite.
