    Has to be Dave Barry.He was the ultimate midfielder, got stuck in but had loads of skill and scored bags of goals. Non a bad manager either

    Thumbs up

    Has to be Davie Barry.
    For a man to give up the GAA, after they issued an ultimatum to him to choose, was a big statement on his feelings for City. And he also scored in our two finest moments, the day we won the league, and the goal against bayern.
    a giant, a legend.

    has to be

    dave barry. as mentioned above the goal against bayern. coming on against cwambran in wales and turning the game around. he also forced that own goal against galatasary in turkey. the best ever moment was when he scored against bohs in turners cross. he got the ball in his own half and waltzed through the entire bohs team. who remembers that?

    It had to be

    Dave Barry, with Johnny C and Skippy in the running aswell. Dave was a good manger aswell, which kinda swayed it for me.
    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.

    Dave Barry has given his all to the club - firstly as a great player, then as a manager who eventually led a club in crisis to their first FAI Cup success and now as a fan - Barry is so often just seen mingling among the ordinary supporters at the Cross every other week.

    There's no way Caulfield can be described as Best City player ever! "Best Back Stabber Ever" maybe?

    Voted for Skippy as I didn't see much of DB- just one question- why was Patsy not in there, surely the most skilfull player ever to play for city?
