Going with Roy Keane, even if a lot of people get the hump with it
For Other league of Ireland players I thought Patsy Freyne and Johnny Caulfield were legends............. I'm too young to remember the sixties and seventies
Who is the greatest ever player in Cork soccer history in your opinion, and why? You must have seen him play though............

The Greatest ever-Roy Keane.
The Greatest for City-Patsy Freyne
the john o'flynn we saw in his first two seasons.
for consitency i'd say ollie cahill.
Very difficult question. Look at all the goals Pat Morley got. One of the best strikers in el/loi history.
Ok Dave Barry, Patsy Freyne Ollie Cahill for skill, I feel Gerry McCabe should get amention here to.
Great defenders we had in Paul Bannon, Declan Daly (in his prime ) and Liam Murphy.
Biscuits and Devine are worthy of a mention too.
I think the current crop of players are too young to judge yet
First Division Champions
Dave Barry, Patsy Freyne, Pat Morley and George O'Callaghan.
However, there are so many more that I could mention, it's too difficult to single out any player.
Champions!
Cormac Cotter - Legend
Patsy Freyne, Pat Morley and George O'Callaghan; in that order
dave barry, biscuit, colin o'brien in that order
j'accuse!
Dave Barry without a doubt.
Patsy and George are not in his league.
patsy! close second is johnny C
The glass isn't half full or half empty it's just too damn big!
lads im amazed that only a few people have included john caulfield as one of our geatest ever players......he was and is a legend,longest ever serving player with one club in eL history and also one of the top scorers.hes my all-time hero.......fair enough,george,john etc. are great players but have yet in my eyes proved themselves worthy of greatest player of all time status
1.JOHNNY CAULFIELD
2.pat morley
3.dave barry
4.patsy freyne
5.ollie cahill
back in the 60s/70s there were unbelievable players,paddy shortt being on being one local cork man.
1. Davey Barry . Best Cork player never to win a full international cap
2. Johnny Caulfield. All time leading CCFC scorer.
3. Deccie Daly. Tough as nails and a real leader on and off the pitch.
Not fair to judge any of the current crop. Though if Flynnie reclaimed his pre injury form he'd be in with a shout.
"Its the bad players who are the luxury not the skillfull ones"
Danny Blanchflower
u cant just pick one player...all players have different attributes
georgie is a skillful player,danny murphy is great defender
i.e. cant be compared
Best Cork player never to win a full international cap? Toss up between Austin Noonan and Donal Leahy, IMHO.Originally Posted by yiddo
Dave might have managed it, only for the GAA...
Donie
...Schwanholz, Herisau: a little bit of heaven...
in todays current climate of introducing eL players on a bigger scale i think he'd (Johnny C) walk into the Irish team ahead of Clinton "Bling Bling" Morrisson.
Graham
j'accuse!
Alan Reynolds---irreplaceable! God be with the days when he was winning everything in the middle of the park and Flynny was player of year,himself and Georgie were untouchable.Will we ever see his likes again?Sweeney,Nwanko,Gamble,Lopez...methinks not!
