    Championship and League 1 players only as it seems on paper we are playing some great football a lot of the time, but I suspect that we would have a couple of the players from the L1 side to bolster this team.

    Schmeichel
    Beradi
    Bartley
    Jannson
    Byrom
    Cook
    Snodgraas
    Gradel
    Howson
    Beckford
    Macormack

    As you can see I think we had some better players under Grayson, even though I think the present team is the best weve had for ages. Remeber Graysons side almost got back to back promotions so feel free to rip this apart and select your own

    I think Doc has pretty much nailed it with his side, but if were counting Delph then he goes in in front of Cook.

    As for Lovers....Antenucci over McCormack?? Bianchi?? <doh> Wumming at its finest!

    A fully fit Davide Somma would warrant at least a place on the bench

    yes, Delph was playing for us in league 1 wasn't he.

    Come to think of it, Radebe was still with us during the 2004/05 season

    In fact even with a dodgy knee Somma gets in ahead of Morison

    Could get silly if we added in players we had on loan over the last couple of seasons like Bannan, Townsend and the 2 ex spuds at Hull

    Tghink we have to say though, that the better players (Majority) came from Simon Grayson in League 1 and promotion team. Would Kissa get in instead of Pontus or Bartley.

    We have to hope that some of this team excel and make a name for themselves, and Roofe, Antonnson, Grimes, Sako, Bridcutt, O'Kane make it

    I agree - he's only 200 career goals behind Morison - would have smashed that in 20 years with a good knee <whistle>
