Greatest Ever 23-Man Rovers Squad
For sometime now we've been trying to put together what we feel is the Greatest Ever Blackburn Rovers Squad. This selection has now been finalised.
This squad currently comprises of the following:
Goalkeepers
Terry Gennoe, Tim Flowers & Brad Friedel
Left-backs (or Wing-backs)
William Eckersley & Graeme Le Saux
Centre-backs
Mike England, Derek Fazackerley, Colin Hendry & Ryan Nelsen
Right-backs (or Wing-backs)
Bob Crompton & Keith Newton
Left midfielders (or Wingers)
Damien Duff & Scott Sellers
Central Midfielders
Ronnie Clayton, Jimmy Forrest, Eddie Latheron & Tugay
Right midfielders (or Wingers)
Bryan Douglas & Noel Brotherston
Forwards
Tommy Briggs, Simon Garner, Alan Shearer & Chris Sutton
So what do we do next?
We will select the Greatest XI!
How do we do this?
This, I'm afraid WILL go to the vote, so make it count!
Things can and will change over time
Do remember the squad can and will be changed over time at your request. This is a long running process as hopefully I will be around this site for YEARS to come, as will you?

Selection of the Greatest XI will begin soon, but DON'T forget this squad CAN and WILL change over time, but will only happen with YOUR say so.

Id like to c this at the end of next season, pretty sure bentley will be pushing for the right midfield spot, hopefully derbs will have a cracker, and ah i dont care, hopefully everyone has a cracker of year so they can all push for a spot in the greatest squad of all time

I still think Sutton should be sacked... Never liked him... Arrogant T*****R - Al Shearer made him look good!
Ex Ewood Resident
sasman - You still can see this at the end of next season as it'll be ON GOING for as long as people wish it to! All people need to do is put forward and arguement for a player or players and the jury will decide :)
Hughes Da Man
Ex Ewood Resident - While I do agree that maybe others should have been in ahead of Sutton, I do think he was more than just a player made to look better by Shearer. The partnership was, and maybe always will be (in my opinion) the best in Premiership history and both played a major part in this. Sutton isn't a patch on Shearer but wasn't bad :)
Hughes Da Man
Couldn't have said it better myself ex ewood.
