[AltyRobin]

With Kevin Ellison’s celebration at weekend it got me thinking of some great players we’ve had in the past and what an ultimate XI would look like from my time watching Alty from 1991.

I’m bound to forget someone but here goes mine. Not including loanees.

                             S. Coburn

S. Cross         G. Young        T. Hannigan        D. Adams

                  T. Kelly                  I. Craney

D. Watmore            R. Colclough               K. Ellison

                              C. Little

Subs: N. Morton, K. Russell, A. Reid, C. Sharratt, S. Terry

[One Foot in the Grave]

Wot, no Reevesy ?

[AltyTunnelSteward]

No Nick Daws?

No Showler?

No Mad Dog or Talbs?

Kingy, JR, Jeff Johnson, Ken McKenna?

[Inter Alty!]

Answered this a couple of times and probably give a different team on different reflections, but:

Stuart Coburn

Shaun Densmore
Mark Maddox
Tom Hannigan
Ryan Shotton

Duncan Watmore
Robbie Lawton (c)
Jake Moult
Josh Hancock

Damian Reeves
Colin Little

Subs: Ian Craney, Colin Potts, Val Owen, Scott Leather, Rod Thornley, Danny Adams, Tony Thompson

Manager: Lee Sinnott*

*Parky takes over this side with a mid table National League finish.

[rorysgrandad]

Byrom Harrison.

[Paul Cain's Chip Pan]

Every time I do this there are probably little differences, but today I'm going with:

                              Coburn

Cross         Ellender         Reid           Wiggins

Terry          Daws          Anderson     Showler

                 McKenna      Little

Subs:
Wealands
Hodson
Carmody
Reeves
Harris

[Saughall Robin]

Given your 'personal' picture (don't know the correct term, being a bit of a luddite,😉), I'm quite surprised at one glaring omission!

Ha ha! I never saw Kingy play for us, unfortunately.

[MarpleAlty]

Did we ever get to the bottom of the team of the last decade?

I think the consensus was:

                        Coburn

Densmore   Havern   Hannigan    Griffin

Watmore     Moult      Richman     Clee

                 Reeves     Hulme

Leather over Havern for me. I know it isn't entirely practical as an XI but I'd have Hancock in over Richman, otherwise struggling to think of many changes. Great side that.

[Saughall Robin]

I've been privileged to see so many great players giving me so many magic moments over the last 55+years supporting the Super Robins. I couldn't begin to whittle it down to a best eleven.
All I would say is that any 'best' team and squad would have to find places for Jackie Swindells and Johnny King.

[Inter Alty!]

My all time fav team from players i've seen since late 70s is above... but if i had to pick a team from last decade it would be as follows...

                             Coburn
Densmore   Havern   Leather   Griffin
     Watmore   Moult   Lawton   Clee
                     Reeves   Hulme

Subs: Thompson, Hannigan, Richman, Hancock, Lawrie

[JD]

With so many greats over the years I couldn't keep a best XI down to 11 players!

Where is Chris senior ?
