As far as centre forwards go, strikers I guess in today's parlance, Ronnie Blackman would have have made any of those guys on the lists look like pub team players. I promise you. And his predecessor Tony McPhee, career cut short by WWII, was even better. Listen to one who has seen most of them over the years.

Although slightly in IR's defence, it would have made more sense for HR to put "4 Parkinsons, 3 Parkinsons, 2 Parkinsons and a Phillip Parkinson"

I submit mine, in no particular order, on pure entertainment value, based on the crowd reaction (of varying sorts) when certain players have recieved the ball.
