With Sidders playing for Villa regularly (a top seven team). I vote for him (not surprisingly).

Shirley harper should be one of the options. Shame on you Archibald's Penalty.

B*llocks. Could we reset the poll please mods?

Thing is who would you take out from that list? Convey was great in 2005-6 but Hunt was more important in 2006-7. Hmm...

I went for Little as his ability to glue the ball to his foot then put an inch perfect cross which we inevitably scored from.

You're probs right - but then I think the golden era was 2005-7.

Darn my indecision.

Are you changing the thread title then? The title of the thread does not refer to who is our best player from 2005-2007 you daft donut. It refers to season 2005/06. Does it not? Simples.

I need thirteen options really.

So I won't. Let's make it the Championship year. Tomorrow we can move on to the great premiership year.

That year Little was the best player in the league. Some of his skill, set up play and goals were of the highest quality. The like I've never seen or doubt I'll get to see again, made it all the sadder to see him last year and he looked completely shot, although doing ok for SHeff Utd by all accounts.

Also Hahnemann was consistantly excellent that season, everyone was good or better than they had been but Little for me was top top class.

His goal @ Plymouth was one of the best I have ever seen for RFC

Sidwell for me. The engine of the side. Gave the team that extra bit of confidence and scored his share of goals as well.

Convey scored some great goals that season and looked like he was going to create something pretty much everytime he got the ball. Gutted it didn't work out for him at RFC in the end

It was a bit of a misleading poll. Sort of wanted to say who was the best player who played for us during the 2005-7(.5) golden years.

Sidwell is the one who has succeeded properly at the top level. That's why I went for him.

Btw I like the way that Villa are the closest team in the prem to be playing 'our' brand of football. Makes me proud that Sidders is in there doing a good job.

Glad things have finally worked out for him instead of bench warming at Chelsea.

I'm sorry but even after all this time I still don't get Convey or the people on here who still wish to have his babies. He had ONE good game at home against Millwall, and that was it, ONE good game. I went to every home and away game that year and even in that great team he looked like little boy lost. He couldn't take on his man, he couldn't tackle, he couldn't head a ball, in fact come to think about it has he come back as Shaun Cummings ?

Glen Little was absolute magic that season. He didn't have pace but he had everything else, defenders had no answer to his ability to walk past them again and again. His crossing was top notch too. He had the most assists in the Championship that season despite missing the last 2 months injured! Great goal at Plymouth too. It was a privilege to watch him play.

Honourable mentions go to Sidwell, Sonko, Convey, Doyle, USA, Ivar, Murty, Lita, Kitson, Harper and Shorey, such was the brilliance of that team.

This had better be a WUM post. Either that or you were blind for the 05/06 season.

I am torn between Sidders and Glenda, but I've plumped for Glenda based on all the assists he provided. As already mentioned, a privilege to watch him play that year.
