George O Callaghan=Legend
Some players are obviously better than others e.g John O Flynn ahead of Ginger Healy.But i remember many of Gingers goals at the X and he was one of my first City heroes.I will name a few that i thought were Citys best..
Deccie Daly,Johnny C,Patsy Freyne,Pat Morley,Paul Bannon,Gerry Mc Cabe,Dave Barry,Dave Hill,Stephen Napier,Colin T O Brien,Ollie Cahill,Georgie Callaghan,Flynny,Billy Woods(in his prime great player)..
Out of them all in my opinion i think Dave Hill was the best City player of all.If City were losing he would drag us back into the game almost on his own.In his prime he had it all.Passing,Vision and a huge heart..
Outside league of Ireland the best Cork player hands down is Roy Keane..
Yep, totally agreeOriginally Posted by Snatch
i agree about dave hill. absolute legend and it was heartbreaking to see him go.
noel hartigan would walk into the irish team ahead of that useless english *****Originally Posted by ccfcman
I believe you dumped a guys post theother day for making a similar statement Eanna. Double standards???
On topic, Dave Barry was the best. No one comes even close.
If at first you don't succeed, redefine success.
the difference of course being that morrison really is english and really is a useless *****Originally Posted by Gary
I have no problem with morrison being english, its the fact that he pretends to be irish in order to get caps that bugs me

Who's Biscuits??![]()
Harrington the former goalie. Legend as well.Originally Posted by joeSoap
Dave Wigginton - "Wiggy" - Cork Hibs in the 70's - a class act.
Not forgetting Miah Dennihey - [Cup final hat-trick for Hibs against Waterford].
or maybe .... George Best - played a few games for Cork Celtic.![]()
...Dave Waters and Charlie McCarthy for Cork Untied in the 80's [average attendance at the box 62].
...more recently...Tommy Gaynor, Dave Barry, John Caulfield, Pat Morley and Biscuits for City.
..currently...Mick Devine....the rest....too early to tell ...

I must disagree.
He showed touches of the genius he possessed but all too infrequently for my liking. Never in the legend category.

Gotta be Biscuits for me.
He wore my hat once during a match too![]()
Oh no not them again
1. John Caulfield
2. Pat Morley (I always wanted a grey streak cause of him)
3. Dave Barry
Past and present included !!
Name the top five all-time greatest players and maybe two or three honourable mentions !!
* Thought there was a thread on this but cant find it right now.
First one up
1. Pat Morley
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.
Best of all time....
Pat Morley or Georgie
Honourable mentions for Dave Barry and Patsy Freyne.
Give Doyler a year or two and he'll be on that list aswell.
Champions!
Skippy morley
Life isn't all beer and football...some of us haven't touched a football in months
1. Morley
2. Barry
3. Caulfield
