Granted Saints had little success prior to ww2 however we still had a few great players eg Jack Arkwright, Alf Ellaby, les Fairclough,William Briers
The legendary 1960's sides also seem under represented. Remember these were the best players in the world, not merely good club players as the current generation are.
This is a list of top 10 appearances at Saints
Kel Coslett
William Briers
Billy Benyon
Eric Chisnall
Dougie Greenall
les Jones
George Lewis
John Mantle
Keiron Cunningham
Tom Van Vollenhoven
All these should be on the list
Les Jones might have made a lot of appearances but he wasn't a legend for me.
