Greetings all, new boy in town.I've named myself in honour of the greatest English right back never to have won International recognition.Gary Stevens wasnt fit to lace Johnny H's boots and thats still my view even when I remove my Red tinted spectacles.So how many other of our boys are there that didnt get the rewards of a cap or 2 that they fully deserved for one reason or another???

    Maybe Rufus should have gone down the Jamaican/Carribbean path like Lisbie and Euell.Dont think Elliott got capped at all.Paul Williams was on the fringe as I recall and Paul Walsh got one a couple of years after leaving us.Rob Lee had to move to Scotland to get his.Carson should have got a chance this year as well( even though he wasn't technically ours).Nothing changes !

    Like mst others-Rufus for me- a travesty he was never given/had the chance!

    mark reid/colin walsh for scotland - how they never got in the team I will never know.

    paul mortimer - pure class but no fancy for england plus Jon Barnes had the shirt

    Peter Reeves

    Classy Centre Half from the 60's. Would have gone onto bigger and better things if Injury hadn't finished career at the age of 26.

    Surely Super Clive, on the basis that had his career not been co cruelly cut short he would've gone on to greatness...one of the finest natural strikers the country has seen.

    Dunno, Clive never did in the Premiership, still think we missed Andy Hunt a lot more when he packed it in

    i've always thought people think clive and even possibly hunt were better than they actually were.....

    and I think people think Jason Euell wasn't as good as he was.

    Flanagan was as good as some that got capped. I know he got England B.

    Andy Hunt was cruelly overlooked by Austria

    You are having a laugh aren't you. Berry was an average defender. Bear in mind that we had a pretty poor defensive record during his time.

    Rufus, Humphrey, Reeves for me. I also think that Killer was due a chance.
