That raises a fair question. What is this vote based on? Contribution to the club, or the all time best keeper? Obviously Ashdown would win the second, and probably almost certainly Turley would win the first.

It's up to you lot to choose your own criteria.

The vote is to find the ultimate diamonds XI, you have to decide what you believe makes someone eligible for that team.

BTW thanks to everyone who helped with tomorrows nominations.

Like-a-bility - Dale Roberts. Loves the club, loves the fans.
Quality - Jamie Ashdown. A great all round keeper who must be bored to death at Pompey.

No Respect for Turley after letting the club down aswell as himself.

Voted for Ashdown, bit to young to comment on Smith's ability but I remember he had a bloody horrible kit :lol:.

Well that was quite overwhelming, the team is now starting to take place up in the Trophy cabinet. The RB vote will appear shortly.

Smith wasn't a great 'keeper, he had some great games but also made his fair share of blunders. He was a real fans favourite though, you just couldn't help but warm to him for some reason.

The boys career stalled and he must be happy sitting on the bench taking his wedge.
That indicates a lack of ambition in my book.
