Our stand out players?

All of them, without the evident strong squad unity then we would not have got promoted.

Smith…excrement

Bit harsh that for me. I quite rate the lad.

McAtee - Has been immense this season, we played so much better with him in the team. Brings that fire that we lacked so much in previous seasons, has style and swagger for days. Always looking to make something happen.

Waterfall - Has been ever present this season and an absolute rock at the back along with a constant threat from set pieces. His ability to lead on the pitch has been a big part of our success, can always seem him talking and organising. Watching set pieces he's like the catcher in baseball giving whistles and signals on where to put the ball and he often converted to goals or set a goal up from them.

Fox - Probably the best box-to-box midfield player we've had in years, has incredible stamina to be everywhere on the pitch and keep going forever, he played non-stop in each playoff game going the full 120 minutes while looking the least tired person on the pitch. Great defensively and in attack, always seems to be in the right place and picks up the lose balls then recycles them to keep the pressure on. Not picking up lose balls was a weakness for us previously and he's shown how valuable it can be to have a player with that anticipation.

Smith - I thought Towler was a great defender and Andy Smith completely blows him away. Become the perfect defensive partner for Waterfall and brings quality and assurance at the back. He plays like a much more experienced pro with how calmly he deals with things and passes the ball from the back.

Taylor - Very much a footballer's footballer. gets on the end of things, great link up play and an experienced head on his shoulders. He's come up against some difficult situations in the season and done well to deal with them. Lot of games are spent getting knocked around by bruiser defenders and he's always patient and doesn't lose his head when he's getting pushed around with no support from the ref.

Efete - Shame about his injury that put him out for the end of the season because he was a really solid player, brings a lot to the table in our forward movement and gets up and down the line well to link up with the midfield. Always liked him playing over not playing, think he's deserving of a mention.

Going to add Crocombe to that list.

I understand competition may be brought in for him but he played a huge part in turning the side around post Xmas.  Once he settled in he commanded his area well enough to dictate that we played further forward, that in turn resulted in a higher press in the opposition half.  

His quick distribution gave us another asset too.  

If someone comes into replace him and are am improvement, I'll be very happy.  Equally so if someone comes in and gets even more out of him, again happy days.

Mcatee  Fox    Waterfall   Clifton   Crocombe    

I'm going to stick up for Riley Towler - absolute class act. Smith has been excellent, and it's toss up between who progresses further , but for me Towler is slightly classier than Smith.Smith may be physically stronger, but i don't remember Towler getting bullied by anyone, and i saw a fair amount of the game he played Whatever happens we've been lucky to have both of them in the side

PS Jay Matete or Ben Fox - there's another tough one

Really good hypothetical you've done there in the ps!

So good I can't even give you an answer after our playoff campaign!

McAtee really does have a swagger about him doesn't he, best player in the play-offs by a country mile.

Hurst really did pull out a diamond there didn't he.

I'd value him at around £1 Million in the current climate, why not. I wouldn't take less.

Really hope he stays with us but money talks.

A lot of my friends from uni watched our playoff run, I guess not being town fans means they give a less bias view. They all recognised Mcatee as being a class above but they all commented on Crocombe and Clifton.

They said Fox played like Kante and they were all impressed with Abraham’s work rate.
