The votes are all in now so thanks to everybody for taking part. There was a lot of close votes but also three players who stormed the polls. Sorensen, Summerbee and Phillips. This is the team that we came out with. I'd fancy our chances of promotion with this lot.
-------------------- Sorensen ---------------- Bardsley - Thome - Mensah - Arca Summerbee - Hutch - M'Vila - Johnston ----------------- Phillips - Quinn ---------------- Subs Gordon Gray Evans Cattermole Malbranque Defoe Bent
That was a very good idea, picking our best team via the individual polls, which created lots of stimulation/debate and reminiscence
Good team that especially going forward. Lots of names mentioned that I haven't thought about for ages. Maybe do one for the manager too?
I still can't believe Bally or Catts didn't make the team. I thought one of them would be a certainty. The big shock for me and one I didn't see coming was M'Vila, he had a good half season but I don't even remember him dominating a game. I think that one has come through a love in.
Big shout out to @Safc83 - been a cracking topic and got the board completely involved. Personally, probably went more with heart than with head for majority of votes but hey ho. To complete it could we do manager and then have a bench of 7 subs (1x GK and 2 x def, mid, att) from the next best votes?
I done the bench from who got the most votes after the first team players. Craig Gordon and Pickford got an equal amount of votes so I went with most appearances like, which was Craig Gordon. Oh and thanks mate
What, no Carsten Fredgard? Have you seen in the Echo, they are doing the same thing. About half from our picks are in their team. Almost every one a Peter Reid signing.
