[Albion] Who are some of the most LIKEABLE Albion players, past or present?

[Clive Walker]

To this day i still love my brother but i wont count him in this thread

BDB & Calde are great shouts... Id add Bruno, Gordon Greer and Wayne Bridge to that too

Who’s your bro?

 

[The Antikythera Mechanism]

Bruno, apparently really regretting his decision to leave.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Bruno, apparently really regretting his decision to leave.

Oh well

Bet they all do now

 

[The Antikythera Mechanism]

Oh well

Bet they all do now

Can’t argue with that logic

 

[Cowfold Seagull]

I assume this is a joke? He’s a nasty little gobshite!

He wasn't the day he won promotion for us at the Millennium Stadium!

 

[Monkey Man]

Not a player, but if I'm allowed Alan Mullery ... I had a fantastic chat with him in a pub one lunchtime (it was a promotional thing for some pubco), in the Withdean years before he was back in the fold. Came across as a brilliant bloke, full of stories and very funny.

 

[CAPTAIN GREALISH]

Can’t believe Robbie savage hasn’t got a mention lol

 

[BLOCK F]

I haven’t the slightest idea, but I have met and had great chats with Wally Gould, Nobby Horton and John Templeman
Lovely fellows, all of them.
Not a player, but I’ve had a good long chat with Mullers about his time at the Albion. Another good bloke.

Nelse, Gerry Armstrong, Keelo, Horton and Virgs are all good examples of nice, unpretentious footballers that I have had the privilege of meeting over the years.

 

[WATFORD zero]

Sir Norman Gall, lovely chap

 

[Seagull on the Hill]

Eric Steele

 

[Cowfold Seagull]

Oh well

Bet they all do now

Until they check their bank balances.

I had a card on my Wedding Day signed by Mullery. The other half was a little put out when I said it was the highlight of the day for me!

Nelson comes across really well and likeable in his books as well.

I would add Gerry Ryan.

 

[Tim Over Whelmed]

Calde. End of thread.

100%, had the pleasure of meeting him several times, really nice guy

No longer pulling pints l hear. Gerry not Nelse.

 

[timbha]

Andy Rollings

 

[Sheebo]

Actual good source or the obvious 2+2 anyone could assume / do?

 

[fly high]

Watching Burn score such an important goal for his boyhood club - there was no resentment from me, just joy for a former player of ours scoring such a great & important goal for his boyhood club. He's always been a likeable bloke and I was super pleased for him.

Which other players, past or present, are just too likeable that you could never have any ill feelings towards?

Not sure about his dance in the changing room after the match, embarrassing....

 

[AstroSloth]

CMS always came across as a nice lad

CMS is a conspiracy theorist anti vaxxer (was one even before covid) so I'd take him out the conversation based just on those.

Same as Leon Knight and Alan Navarro.
