Legends Way fan vote: choose the 14 legends


Keira Ramshaw played 300 odd games for Sunderland (which in womens football is an unbelievable number as they play less games), basically the Jimmy Montgomery of Sunderland Women.

Jill Scott is a good ambassador and does great stuff with the academy, but she didn’t actually do much as a player here. Thats what I don’t like about. If you’re going to include a women, include one who is a legend for the womens team and not just the famous one.
 
Some embarrassing picks there, why they should let a panel of experts pick. Buchan, Allan, Doig Halliday, Gurney glaring omissions.

Reid, Defoe, Scott, Murray? Ahead of the man that literally founded the club and our record ever goal scorer. Madness
Murray deserves to be there on account of him building the stadium but I understand what you mean. Personally its not something im gonna lose sleep over but it would have been good to have a Jimmy Thorpe memorial given what happened to him but recency bias is always a big influence in these things

Take Jill scott out whos only there because shes the worst part of a popular podcast and stick James Allan in there. Somebody who has actually contributed to the football club.

I had Ned Doig as my top pick. Won 4 top tier division titles with him and is regarded as one of the greatest keepers of all time.
 
Jill Scott is a surprise but its not much of a surprise if you have daughters who are football mad. So I think thats why she is there.
