    Richie 'BlocksMore' and Alan Gough for our lot, mentions from my recollection to Henderson, O'Neill, Davis, Ludzic. Of the newer generaiton, Brian Murphy is easily the best keeper in the league in the past few seasons

    The first half of his stay at Shels Williams has to get a mention, i just think he fell out of favour and then started to decline after that.

    Alex Ludzic was without doubt the best ever to have played on any team in Cork. Devine does deserve a mention but to be honest i think its definitely Ludzic
    The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.

    Ever heard of Alan Kelly?

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alan_Kelly,_Sr.

    47 caps and all that, not as good as Anthony Fennelly though.

    Gough, but honourable mention must go to Tom Lally (the postman always delivered) who was also adept at scoring and if memory serves me right was our leading scorer one season.
    If YOU are not part of the solution,
    YOU ARE part of the problem

    He wouldn't be near anyones list in the IL of being one of the top keepers ever.

    To think DJ nearly signed him as Alan Mannus was seen as too inexperienced, thank f**k it fell through and now we have a Northern Ireland international and best keeper in the Irish League and possibly in any domestic league on this island (obviously this is arguable it's just my opinion).

    But if Gough is one of the best keepers in LOI history, then you must have had a low standard of goalkeeper down their (and this isn't me WUMMING)

    It does indeed serve you right. Well, partly right. First season in league he scored 4 penos to make him join top scorer that season with, I think, Paul Martin. Ex Celtic player too, silly of me to omit him from my list, and he still goes to Terryland for every United home game
