Who is the best post-war locally born football player? We re asking readers to nominate their favourites as part of a campaign to celebrate the roll call of soccer talent witnessed over the past 75 years.
The first nomination came from Roy Scott, who helped with the start-up of Sunday soccer locally in 1958/59, now sponsored by the Herts Advertiser, who chose former St Albans City player Herbie Smith as his number one.
