[Colin Cheeselog]

Mills would definitely make the cúnt XI, along with Lita.

Scored two cracking goals against Sunderland in a 4-0 win at Elm Park.

Mark Reily - wasn't he the guy who signed and then left soon after?

I can still see Mark Riley (correct me if I'm wrong) heading towards the halfway line at Preston only to take the ball back towards the Reading goal without a clue what he was doing.

Paul Brayson - scored 100,000 goals for Newcastle reserves apparently.

To be fair to Asaba, he did top score in the relegation season, which was a pretty awful team

All he wanted was a free ferry ticket

Can't even remember exactly where Evers, Crawford and Reilly played, but it was somewhere in midfield and they were crap. How the likes of Houghton, Jones, Fleck, Scott and Sheppard have avoided getting in my team I'm not entirely sure.

Fae was never a winger / right sided midfielder. He was a central (defensive) midfielder we played out of position.

Drop Dave Mooney (or Brett Williams / Karl Sheppard) for Les Ferdinand?

Sekou Baradji? (barring one cross)

Cedric Baseya? Eric Obinna Chukwunyelu? Benik Afobe (did f/k all - although wasn't needed to really).

Houghton was sh/t.

True, but I was struggling for right wingers and that's where he started for us. Replace him with Brooker. Ferdinand looked a bit like Roberts this season IMO. A cut about what we have, but never likely to actually score a goal. Baradji was only ever really a short term cover signing, so I don't think he was a flop, no one expected much, he had high quality competition and true to expectations he's disappeared quickly.

None of those really played much or were expected to play much. I've tried to keep my picks to players who were intended to improve the first team squad (either straight away or soonish)

I've edited the team to "improve" it slightly.

Thats a proper shit line up

Can i nominate Terry Bullivant as the manager.

Hes the lolly pop stick in this pile of dog shit

[Ian Royal]

I'd go Burns personally. But it's those two that stand out from the crowd for sure.

The same Grant Brebner, who was probably our our best midfielder at that time, who scored 10 goals in 41 game. Good call pal
