    Welcome one and all to the Flock of the Day reveal. First position will be up at 8!

    Our player list:

    13 players:

    Electric Nitwit
    Hello 2d Person Below
    hurlingman97
    irelandrover
    lassykk
    MicksJaguar
    Necro
    Reberetta
    sawduck
    ShaneU
    Sheridan81
    Trigger
    wrestlemaniac


    A reminder of the rules....

    The idea will be to pick any football player you like for each of the positions listed below; you will then get points based on how popular your answer is amongst the people who are playing.

    You can use google to choose your answers.

    Note, you can only choose 3 players who played for the same club (the way this will be judged is if a player spent 5+ years with a club OR currently play for the club, they count towards your quota of 3 per club.

    UPDATE: If a player has 5+ years for more than one club, you cannot list him for club A and then list 3 different players for club B. I.e. if Derek Swan has 5+ years for both Bohs and Shels, you cant list him as a Shels player and then list 3 other Bohs players. In this instance, Derek would count towards your allocation for BOTH Bohs and Shels.

    Formation: 4-3-3

    I think, when people discuss the best player ever, there's agreement on the four main contenders. I didn't include any of them. I'm a fool

    I'm definitely not winning this, though I did pick the best team :P
