I'm not talking about "hard men" but those that were just "dirty"!
For me, I can name two - Bobby Collins and Johnny Giles who both played for Revie's Leeds team.
Giles used to be a right winger but replaced Collins in the centre after he had his leg broken!
In the '60s there weren't cameras everywhere and these two scumbags would wait until the ball was yards away, with the ref watching it before kidney punching and/or raking their studs down the back of an opponent's calves.
They are the only two that I can think of that (if I'd been good enough to play against) I would have gone out with the intention of ending their playing careers.
Are there any that you think of in the same way?

Remember it well, there was almost a pitch invasion from the Main Stand Paddocks which at the time was one of the more sedate areas of RP.Probably been said before but seen Souness kick Shaun Elliot almost into orbit one day, horrible bastard.
RacistRemember Sol Campbell being a right dirty bastard marking Quinny one game, about 20 fouls and only got booked in the last couple of mins!
Remember that game a boring 0-0 he took Smith out by the clockstand towards the Fulwell EndAndy Llewellyn. Everyone in the ground knew he was going to do Anthony Smith that day, missed him 1st time, ended his career the 2nd. Cowardly twat.
Mel Sterland was a snidey prick as well.
I think this man would even give mick Harford a good fightBilly Whitehurst
Rob Jones from gateshead it was a cup tie playing for Grimsby Munro was at left back and ran the width of the pitch to smash him ouchThink all the usual suspects have been named but can anyone remember a big skinhead centre back marking Shearer in a cup game, possibly for Notts County? I've never seen old weetabix so intimidated ! Two not mentioned yet because they are red n white are Bally and Kaysie, they made some shockers over the years tbh, also Iain Munro took no prisoners, his tackle on Steve Hunt (neck high on the half way line!) was something to behold, he didn't even wait for the red card, just jogged down the tunnel

It was definitely v Coventry and it was Steve Hunt he took out, surprisingly the only sending off in his Sunderland career !I think this man would even give mick Harford a good fight

Harald Schumacher.A german goalkeeper, I forget his name but I remember gasping as kid when he smashed into this other guy during a world cup game, knocked him clean out iirc.

Snide bastard.
