Brian Flynn (1977-82) 177 apps, 11 goals
He looked like a fey Subbuteo player, but little Brian Flynn was a pint-sized colossus at a club that has specialised in them - Collins, Bremner, Giles, Strachan et al. Flynn would have made the list for the simple fact he once scored the winner at Old Trafford, but he was also a wolf in sheep's clothing, fiercely competitive and the perfect foil for Tony Currie's flamboyance.
