Over the last 10 years??

I reckon take the team we have now put Connell and Hearn up front and Pond (if you're including loan players) at centre-half alongside Pearson and you'd be just about there.

McKeown
Magnay
Pond
Pearson
Thomas
Arnold
Disley
Brown
Neilson
Connell
Hearn

This with Newey at left back (from the first 2-3 years he was here, when Peterborough apparently were interested), Bolland instead of Brown, Reddy instead of Paterson and perhaps Cohen instead of Coulson would be mine.

Those are the exact players and positions that I had my most difficult decisions with. I think Brown is a bit tidier on the ball than Bolland which is why he got the nod but I did like Bolly. Reddy and Paterson were both awesome but Paterson lifted us almost individually at a time when we were really low. Didn't go with Newey cause I don't like long punts down the line.

True about Brown but he is also playing a league below, as well as Bolly seeming to score a couple more? (I may have dreamt that that happened!)

Chose Reddy because of his electric pace and how much we struggled without him, but I agree Paterson was top class for us (despite him also being here for the losing run we went on as well as the winning streak - don't forget the influence of Anthony Pulis and Peter Till who came at a similar time on loan too   )

Newey under Buckley in that 5-3-2 system we used to play was excellent though, and his combination with Toner was also quite impressive while Buckley was here.
