[20LEGEND]

Now am just gonna say that the term Legend in football gets over-used at times so easily

Legends are people who make history, loved by the fans and most of all be loyal

Man Utd Legends that i would call hands down legends in my era as a United fan

Robson, Hughes, Keane, Giggs, Cantona, Scholes and 20legend himself


please question any of my choices above if you think you have a case that these men are not Legends

i dare you, infact i double dare ya's! :D

[Hackr]

I question 20Legend :p

[Agent_Almeida]

Cant argue with your selection 20legend

i would add one or two more Legends in there

Steve Bruce and Peter Schmeichel

[20LEGEND]

dont forget Dennis Irwin :D

[20LEGEND]

[Agent_Almeida]

bergkamp was good

another legend

Roy Keane

[Agent_Almeida]

he was a great captain, everything he did and said was right, although it was not professional, we all love his fiery character and i wish him the best success as a manager

[Agent_O'Brian]

Robert Pires is an Arsenal Legend as far as concerned! he was great and always he played so well with henry

[Agent_Almeida]

Teddy Sheringham!

he is a legend for United and for Tottenham
great player, will always love him for 1999 and his goal against arsenal in the 6-1 lol

made the gooners cry

[Beroglide]

i don't think there's many followers of major league baseball here, but i will say cal ripken jr.

Ok I'll question ya just for the sake of it!!!!!!! Ya canna have that many choices legend, stop being indecisive and choose (mind u ya are an oldy so your choices span alongtime)

[Colgate-Kid]

I got a Bradford Northern/Bulls legend........ Brian McDermott...... ex Royal Marine Boxing Champ, only person I've ever seen floor 3people @ a play of the ball, 3punches 3knockouts His nickname was Boom-Boom for good reason

[Agent_O'Brian]

ck in football they are many legends for one team

[Colgate-Kid]

its no different with rugby league m8, from Bradfords pack you've had some of the all time greats over the years, alot of people think of Bradford as Rugby's version of Man U,

[20LEGEND]

lol bradford rugby team or even the australian rugby team will never be as BIG as manchester united :)

Legends are Legends, different era's different teams have new legends

i dont even class....rooney or ronaldo as a legend...yet. the people at old trafford in the current team at the moment, who i would say are legends are

Ole! aka 20legend
Giggsy!
Neville! &
Scholesy! who will score today i have a feeling

[Colgate-Kid]

neva said they were as big as Man Utd... ffs we don't want that cos we don't want hooigans etc... I said we were the equivalent in Rugby League (I don't refer union as rugby lol its Raaraa cos you get all the toffs playing it lol)

[20LEGEND]

Hooligans Lol

[Colgate-Kid]

nah when Leeds Utd went under @ first there was a spate of the yobs from Leeds Utd coming to the Rugby Matches, until all the fans inc. the Leeds Rugby fans made it clear they weren't wanted unless they calmed it cos its a family spectator sport where all the fans intermingle & enjoy themselves, non of this steel barriers between fans or riot police separating us. Only reason the cops turn up @ rugby is to watch the match n o stop traffic @ end

[20LEGEND]

Leeds are just scum anyway

[Colgate-Kid]

<<refers Legend to his rugby chant>>

[Tiggz]

Right thats it I am sorry but I cant read all that and not say something.......

Ok seriously your talking Legends....... Slate me all you want have your say I dont care and I aint even saying this cos I am black and white through and through but seriously Shearer is without doubt a footballing legend.

I would go on and say people like "Super" Malcolm Macdonald and even "Wor" Jackie Milburn both of which will go down in Newcastle United History.

Even you Manchester United fans have Jackie Milburn to thank... after all he taught Bobby and Jackie Charlton everything they knew, like the good uncle he was to them.

I am sorry but some people dont deserve the term legend as it is throw about way to much these days... but people like Pele and Maradonna deserve it, People like Ali (boxing) and even Brain Lara (cricket).

Now if anyone wants to argue I will stand up for my choices haha :001_tt2:

[20LEGEND]

tiggz you're choices are not slated at all

the only person who has a right to slate you're choices would be a fellow newcastle fan

:clap:

good choices

[Tiggz]

Just aswell no-one slated them, saves me having to hunt you all down and kicking ass haha

[glockspeak]

Bobby Orr, greatest defenseman to ever play hockey. He played for the Boston Bruins. And of course, Wayne Gretsky. The. Greatest. Hockey Player. EVER.

[Agent_Almeida]

tyson is a legend as well

[Agent_Almeida]

Pippo Inzaghi :biggrin:
LEGEND

[Colgate-Kid]

Jimmy Lowes............. Rugby League Player.......... both admired & feared by all who opposed him for his skill at going round or through them

[20LEGEND]

Pippo Inzaghi :biggrin:
LEGEND

:biggrin: good shout haha

[Agent_Almeida]

:biggrin: good shout haha

he has had a good career for a striker
maybe a bit over-rated but a legend in football

[Agent_O'Brian]

Tony Adams is a legend

[20LEGEND]

Legend alright for u lot, how he came back in 91 after a prison sentence and guided you guys to the title against the crumbling Liverpool team who had been dominating the league for years!

not that i like him, he is a donkey still, as much as van nistelrooy is a horse

[Agent_O'Brian]

Patrick Vieira is still a great player i love him loads and miss him pires, bergkamp a lot

Vieira is the only one who gave roy keane a good match in his prime

[20LEGEND]

Keane and Vieiras tunnel bust up was brilliant
how he went and hid behind...PASCAL CYGAN

:lol:

[Agent_O'Brian]

when Vieira scored the first goal i really thought we were going to teach you mancs a lesson

ronaldos hushing celebration was annoying :cursing:

[Agent_Almeida]

that was forgetable night

United vs Arsenal have had some good games in the past
classic encounters

[Agent_O'Brian]

Seaman is a legend as well for us!

[Colgate-Kid]

Lesley Vainikolo aka "The Volcano".......... he is as Shaun Edwards said today a living Rugby League Legend........... 148 tries out of 150 appearances, is also the current record holder for the most tries scores in 1 season. His last match for Bradford was today(sunday) against Huddersfield Giants in Quarterfinals....... now he moves to Union.
Ahhhhhh well all good things must pass

[20LEGEND]

impressive record for the volcano CK

[Colgate-Kid]

Yup he's a big fella too......... 6'3 & 110kg but can move like Linford Christie which is why he's feared, oppenents have said that the only way to stop him is with an elephant gun!!!!!!

[Agent_Almeida]

theres a legend ck just said

Linford Christie! legend who was hung out to dry by the media and the world
great athlete and a nice person

[Colgate-Kid]

Oops turns out I got it wrong........ It was his last Cup match that day, he played yestersday & was almost like a party atmosphere on the pitch as they romped home, He kicked the first goal of his career too....... he got 1 more match plus Wembley for us I beleive now lol
