I need a break from doom and gloom, so let's reminisce about past glories.
Who are people's personal top 5 legends, don't necessarily have to have been great players or managers but people you liked, mine is pitiful.
Paul Hurst
Gary Jones
Lenell John Lewis
Craig Disley
Manny Panther (loved his name and comical footballing ability)

Gary Jones - Everything apart from pace
Dave Gilbert - The first player I loved
Paul Groves - The best English player to never play in the top division
Liam Hearn - The player who made my son a town fan

So many more deserve to be mentioned in despatches though. Any of McDermott, Mendonca, Gilbert, Burnett, Ford could easily make the list. Teams from 71-2, 78-80, 88-2000 figure strongly.
A non-League legends list:
Disley
Podge
Macca
Pearson (probably epitomises the best of the new spirit)
Hearn
Plus Arnold, Bogle,

It's easy for us older fans to forget that you young 'uns have never seen truly great football at BP. I hope you one day get to witness players of the calibre of some of those mentioned and how fantastic a great side can be when they click.
Something like this:-
