Yes he contributed more, but he wasn't better for us, no way. Sutton was extraordinarily

good for us and for that reason deserves his place in the Greatest Ever team. Holt far better than Iwan though and should be in there ahead of him

Greatest ever Norwich City XI....any changes since the 2008 vote ? ... (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Feb 27, 12:58:04
- Roberts (NCFC) - Buford T Justice, Feb 27, 17:40:43
  - In fact (NCFC) - Buford T Justice, Feb 27, 17:43:03
- Holt would have to be in, 3 x POTS not making a greatest ever! (n/m) (NCFC) - Jumbo1, Feb 27, 17:14:57
- Andy Lineghan for big Dunc i'm afraid. (n/m) (NCFC) - protheroe fitzgibbon, Feb 27, 13:47:30
  - Linigan's biggest contribution to Norwich was done in an Arsenal shirt. (n/m) (NCFC) - Meh, Feb 27, 15:28:23
  - No. (NCFC) - camcan, Feb 27, 14:05:35
  - Dave Watson (n/m) (NCFC) - mr carra, Feb 27, 13:48:47
    - Lineghan more mobile and better distribution imo, but you could easily put Watson in there (NCFC) - protheroe fitzgibbon, Feb 27, 13:52:24
      - I thought Linighan's main problem was his immobility (NCFC) - mr carra, Feb 27, 13:57:53
        
        I take your point, but if he was i don't remember that getting exploited, if you want stif (NCFC) - protheroe fitzgibbon, Feb 27, 14:02:31
        
        no, he was definitely better than Butterworth (NCFC) - mr carra, Feb 27, 14:07:47
        
        Fair point. (n/m) (NCFC) - protheroe fitzgibbon, Feb 27, 14:12:50
        
        I think Newsome was better than Butterworth to be honest (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Feb 27, 14:08:53
        
        Yeah i rated Newsome, there always seemed to be space around him though (NCFC) - protheroe fitzgibbon, Feb 27, 14:14:54
        
        Agree completely (n/m) (NCFC) - mr carra, Feb 27, 14:11:06
      - He played* (n/m) (NCFC) - protheroe fitzgibbon, Feb 27, 13:52:54
- I'd have several people ahead of Eadie (NCFC) - mr carra, Feb 27, 13:45:21
  - Can you even play Eadie and Hucks in the same team? one or the other surely. (n/m) (NCFC) - protheroe fitzgibbon, Feb 27, 13:54:30
    - I guess that would bring in Fox on the right... (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Feb 27, 14:09:26
  - I think Bellars started out left wing didn't he ? (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Feb 27, 13:46:14
    - he was certainly somewhere in midfield I thought? (NCFC) - mr carra, Feb 27, 13:48:08
- Depends on the criteria (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Feb 27, 13:37:19
  - Hoolahan? You are joking right? (NCFC) - Goalmusic, Feb 27, 13:45:22

      - silly post (n/m) (NCFC) - Goalmusic, Feb 27, 13:47:33
        
        Cock (n/m) (NCFC) - yellowman, Feb 27, 13:49:15
- Martin O'Neill? McDougal? (n/m) (NCFC) - Goalmusic, Feb 27, 13:13:11
- Bowen is a weird one. He'd score 6 or 7 a season but (NCFC) - MIKEWALKER, Feb 27, 13:07:51
  - Who was a better left back though ? (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Feb 27, 13:12:43
    - No. We're the worst at leftbacks. (n/m) (NCFC) - MIKEWALKER, Feb 27, 13:13:57
- Holt for Roberts isn't even debatable (NCFC) - Brandonio, Feb 27, 13:02:52
  - I would agree. Although I would also suggest him for Sutton. Not that (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Feb 27, 13:06:48
    - Sutton was a key player in one of our greatest ever teams (NCFC) - norway, Feb 27, 13:08:03
      - Didn't he score 30? (n/m) (NCFC) - Adster, Feb 27, 13:26:28
        
        Yes although that might have included cups (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Feb 27, 13:34:57
      - Yes I already said that. I would say Holt contributed much more, especially given the (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Feb 27, 13:24:00
        
        I know you said that (NCFC) - norway, Feb 27, 13:30:04
        
        Yes...Sutton was booed the season before... (NCFC) - yellowman, Feb 27, 13:29:49
        
        He definitely wasn't booed at any point in his Norwich career (n/m) (NCFC) - Adster, Feb 27, 13:32:21
        
        I think he was..... (NCFC) - yellowman, Feb 27, 13:35:31
        
        He was a defender first for sure. Don't remember him getting booed though (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Feb 27, 13:37:30
        
        Maybe just some fool I sat near (n/m) (NCFC) - yellowman, Feb 27, 13:40:19
