06 squad Vs 21 Squad

[KCNotts]

I said earlier that Thompson's 06 team was the worst I thought I'd see at Notts, but that I believe even they would beat our current team. So I thought I'd do a direct comparison...

GK Pilkington/Deeny v Slocombe: winner Pilks
RB Silk v Brindley: winner DRAW
RWB Pipe v DKE: winner Pipe (no contest)
LB Mayo v Chicksen: DRAW
LWB McCann v Taylor: winner McCann
CB Edwards v Cameron: winner Edwards
CB Hunt v Lacey: winner Lacey
CB Somner v Rawlinson: DRAW
W Parkinson v Roberts: winner Parkinson (on current form)
CM Ross v Palmer: winner Palmer
CM Smith v JOB/Francis: DRAW
W NToya v Rodders winner: Rodders
CF Lee v Wootton: Winner Lee (crazy but true)
CF Dudfield v Mitchell: winner Dudfield
F Hector Sam v Nemane: DRAW

Pretty even on paper, BUT the 06 team knew how to battle and go to war. I think they would beat this current team quote easily.

Completely different styles, and I think the squad we have now should beat Thomo’s lot.

The fear I have is that the lesser team would win simply because they wanted it more.

I don't quote agree.

I know the 06 were in a higher league obviously so you would expect them to be better but ugly. I mean UGLY! Horrible. Yuk. No thanks, not again.

Just like Woking, Altrincham and Halifax then...

Give me an ugly winner over a pretty loser any day of the week. Ugly winners get 3 points, pretty losers get f*ck all.

It’s a football match, not a beauty contest.

Any excuse really to have a go at DKE. Regular Saturday night reading from KCNotts.

Selective comparison, comparing him to Pipe as a RWB which Pipe wasn't!

I'm inclined to agree. Even though that side was awful though, there were chinks of light. Jason Lee was an old campaigner and actually a pretty decent player. Parky was dangerous on his day, Eddy and Pills were steady and Pipe was one of the best right sided players we've had since Finnan. The rest were truly awful though.

Regular viewing seeing you taking exception to it too. Well DKE isn't a RWB either so that's even.

So why not compare Silk with DKE and imo DKE wins easily.

No sh!t Sherlock. We all prefer winning to losing.

But there is nothing worse when you play ugly and lose. You leave the ground thinking I barely saw any football today.

We can all remember those games. Yuk
