Rovers' Mount Rushmore

[GHR]

Sergio Peter, David Yelldell, Sebastien Pelzer and Javi de Pedro, just to confuse everybody, Rovers fans included.

If it's players only then Ronnie, Duggie, Faz, Garner for me i think.

A lot will say Shearer but he's a Geordie and he'd be on theirs, others maybe Hendry and i'm a big fan of his but he bailed twice when it suited unlike the 4 mentioned.

Non players it would be John Lewis, Jack Walker and maybe Bill Fox and John Williams.

Managers ? Well certainly Kenny and Souness for me plus possibly Don Mackay but not sure about the other.

Howard Kendal, Gordon Lee

pre Uncle Jack era, the 4 should be Ronnie Clayton, Bryan Douglas, Simon Garner and Bob Compton

Since Uncle Jack takeover, Jack Walker, Sir Kenny, Alan Shearer and Tony Parkes

It's tough, could even do a third catergory - post Jack too. Tugay, Friedel, Duff, MGP/Jansen

Here’s a tricky one: Venkys era Rushmore.

I’d say Mulgrew, Graham, Conway, Rhodes?

You look at some of the great names of the not so distant past and you ask how the hell did we get to this!

Makes me want to weep.

Id say in the post Venkys era no one good enough has actually managed to stay at the club long enough to attain legendary status.

I wouldn't be putting a picture or statue of any player up since Tugay. Players in my time following rovers (since 1992) who I would accept in granite form - Shearer, Freidel, Tugay. Think that's it?  Maybe the whole 1995 team as champions as a fresco maybe, but beyond Shearer hard to pick an individual out for chiseling into stone. You have to reserve it for the best of the best.
