Never the most talented player to take to the Stadium of Light turf, Nyron Nosworthy won the hearts of every Wearsider with a string of committed performances over the course of five seasons. This list might not be packed with the most loyal players ever to pull on a red and white shirt, but Nyron is certainly an exception in this regard, playing wherever asked and fighting desperately, desperately hard to overcome his limitations. Coolest Moment: Having suffered a heartbreaking relegation at the end of the record-breakingly awful 2005/06 campaign, the sight of a shirtless Nosworthy celebrating Sunderland's subsequent promotion with the fans still lives long in the memory.
