You are the gaffer... the team for Grimsby according to you

Last updated : 06 August 2007 By Paul Smith
With no more pre-season friendlies for players to show their worth, Notts fans have had their say and the result is in.

Counting up the amount of times each player was picked in each position saw NCM pick an average side in the 4-3-3 formation preferred by boss Steve Thompson, and it seems the majority of you too.

Here is the eleven that the majority of you would pick providing everybody was fit and free for inclusion.



           

Kevin Pilkington




Adam Tann Lee Canoville Stephen Hunt Austin McCann




Jay Smith Neil MacKenzie Richard Butcher




Spencer Weir-Daley Jason Lee Myles Weston

A few facts:

Of the sixteen who answered, nine thought that 4-3-3 was the best formation for the Magpies, with 4-4-2 second favourite with just four votes.

Only one person felt that Tim Sandercombe was a better choice as number one than Pilkington.

The favourite players picked alongside Pilkington were Hunt and Tann who were picked by everyone and MacKenzie, Weir-Daley and Lee who were voted for by fifteen, fourteen and twelve respectively.

Surprisingly Hector Sam, apparent fans favourite Lawrie Dudfield and midfield terrier Matt Somner were voted for just four, five and three times.
