If you'd like to re read my post I quoted 1983 to 1995. As far as I can remember Scott Wiseman wasn't in the team at that time!
I was. But do explain. JC and I were discussing good players from 83 to 95. You quoted indisputably one of the best from that period and juxtaposed one of the worst from the last few years. In that case I give you:- Adam Hamill v Steve Lowndes Conor Hourihane v Billy Ronson Marc Roberts v Charlie Bishop Sam Winnall v Carl Airey It's a game you could play all day and prove nothing.
1983-95 was a thousand times better than 2012-18. Ten thousand times even. Just compare the league positions and the number of games won. It's beyond insanity to say they were about the same.
I remember calling Carl Airey a fat ****. He was probably about 4 stones lighter than I am now. Le sigh.
