Who’s your favourite ever Newcastle United player?

Stan Apart, Ivor Allchurch. A story about Stan and Allchurch in Stan Anderson’s final game for Sunderland against Cardiff City which included John and Mel Charles, the game ended 3-3 and Allchurch scored a hat trick. Anderson moved to Newcastle that midweek, and I was upset. First game for scum was also against Cardiff. Score 4-0 to Cardiff and another Allchurch hat trick
 

Hughie Gallagher. Charlie Ferguson said he was the best he saw. If Charlie said that - then he would have been very good.
 
Reading between the lines, I think you are a John Beresford man in denial.

Quoting me at 5:55 am and comparing people to a 90s camp mag full back suggests that you’ve sniffed to many of the lines that ya trying to read between.

I stick to my original opinion that I can’t beleive that any safc fan would even contemplate the answer to this question without losing all self respect for themselves
Before thinking of a genuine answer.

I’ve replied to this thread once and now replied to a comment and still wouldn’t even think about giving a serious thought to who my favourite mag player is or was or whatever.

Sorry I got it so badly wrong. It’s Dabizas isn’t it?! Dabizas is your man. Apologies
 
Paul Kitson, bumped into him a couple of months back, genuinely nice lad, got talking about footy and said he played for West Ham and Leicester, never mentioned the mags
 
I cannot have a favourite I am too parochial but I wish we had Beardsley and Waddler in his prime.

This. Beardsley was a fantastic footballer and we saw what Waddle as like at the back end of his career. I wish we'd paid the 450k for Waddle that Wednesday wanted around the time we signed David Kelly and we'd have had a season or two out of him instead of 7 games.
 
Perez- Like anyone’s who’s not a wrongun hated playing for them and just yearned for all things mackem and his glory days of stepping out at Roker Park and the SOL

He never played a single first team game :D
He "yearned for all things mackem" yet lived in Ponteland when he played for Sunderland :D
