Favourite starting 11...

Gk Raddy Avramovic
Rb Tristian Benjamin
Cb Dave Needham

Not many ball winners in the team but lots of ball players and an aggressive strike force

I assume Ben

Bearing in mind the title is "Favourite" not "Best" Eleven:

Manager: Sirrel (assistant Warnock)

A sign of how times have changed. Avramocic used to live at the end of our street in Calverton - the pit still being the main employer. Players seem to have distanced themselves.

Darren Davies?

you're thinking of Darren Davis from barnwells team surely, i meant Ben Davies

I went on the pitch before a game when i was a kid and got Darren Davis autograph, i got a few that day i think dave kevan was another all i remember though was mick leonard being a pri*k and not signing my little book, i was probably too young to know what a dic*khead was but i now realise he was one
