The list is as chock full of legendary players as you'd imagine. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/teams/sunderland They're doing Newcastle this morning, I'm expecting the standard to be slightly higher. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/teams/newcastle-united 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig 7912 Posted 10 hours ago Share Posted 10 hours ago Oh I'm not sure. As tremendous players as they were, HBA in 5th and Waddle in 4th are definitely up for debate Top 3 surely has to be Beardsley, Gascoigne and Ginola in no particular order.

Renton 24800 Posted 10 hours ago Share Posted 10 hours ago Hmm, my best top 5 would be: Albert Luque Claudia Capaca Andreas Anderson Stephanie Guivarch Jack Colback Oh if we still had these players on our books. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have Waddle in for Ginola tbh...he was here 5 years and actually achieved something in his time at the club, Ginola was here 2 years and spent half of that time in the huff because Keegan wouldn't let him go to Barca 😑 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admittedly Ginola could be a pain in the arse, but in terms of being skillful, there's not many got close. Anyway, he's 3rd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobinRobin 13156 Posted 8 hours ago Share Posted 8 hours ago 3 hours ago, Howmanheyman said: We were definitely in for Kennedy who decided to play for his team rather than his old club, (probably had bad memories of our old board?) anyway he was, like Gates, going to the third division whilst we finished 8th in division one. A lucky escape for us. If Charlton wanted Gates in 84 that would've been a decent signing then but seeing the forwards he bought he seems a little small and mobile for Charlton? Friend who knows him said he was asked to go there to get them out of that division. Which he did. 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye. Didn’t McMenemy resign but instead of informing the club did it via an exclusive interview in The Sun? I think the Mirror depicted him as a rat caricature in response. Then Stokoe took over for the last few games but couldn’t keep them up? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig 7912 Posted 7 hours ago Share Posted 7 hours ago So Howey's top 5 skillful Newcastle players of all time end up being: 1st Beardsley 2nd Gascoigne 3rd Ginola 4th Waddle 5th Ben Arfa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howmanheyman 38583 Posted 6 hours ago Share Posted 6 hours ago Sunderland: Eric Gates. Sebastian Larsson Stephane Sessegnon Michael Bridges Billy Hughes NUFC: Beardsley Gascoigne Ginola Waddle Ben Arfa Very hard to pick a combined five out of those two lists but I've had a go so don't all pile on at once, it's just a football opinion after all. NUFC and SAFC combined radio Newcastle most skillful players based on Gabbiadini and Howey's lists: Beardsley Gascoigne Ginola Waddle Ben Arfa Some tough decisions but these five just shade it. Didn't think it was going to be so hard tbh. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
