The IMBD Blog Selected Team

Ok we had the Starting Line up sorted but let’s just clarify the sub positions for this afternoons game against Luton Town.

The Starting Line up with Squad Number is as follows

1. GK – James Pullen (1)
2. RB – Jay Conroy (2)
3. LB – Chris Hussey (3)
4. CB1 – Paul Lorraine (22)
5. CB2 – Ben Judge (6)
6. MD1 – Lewis Taylor (8)
7. MD2 – Derek Duncan (14)
8. MD3 – Elliott Godfrey (11)
9. MD4 – Steven Gregory (?)
10. ST1 – Danny Kedwell (10)
11. ST2 – Jon Main (9)

We originally went for a 4-4-2 formation and based on comments so far this week it appears that Jame Pullen, Chris Hussey & Derek Duncan will be starting th game.

With us selecting 1 Defender 1 Midfielder and 1 Striker on the bench we had two other positions available and you selected 1 Goal keeper and an extra midfielder so our subs are as follows: -

1. GK Sebb Brown The original poll said Jack Turner but it appears it will be Sebb
2. DF Luke Garrard (12)
3. MD Sam Hatton (7)
4. MD Ricky Wellard (17)
5. ST Luke Moore (?)

The one player of note from the line up is Brett Johnson and some people even think that he will start in defence. I wonder how well we will do.

1st Sub Defender

We will announce our poll subs on Saturday so let’s start by picking the 1st member of our bench to do this we will put all the defenders who didn’t get a place in the starting line up.

So please click the defender that you wish to see get a place on the bench, it’s possible we might have a second defender on the bench as we still have 2 final positions to decide what area of the pitch we will put them in,

It’s not to late to vote for the final two positions on the bench by clicking here.

The vote for the first midfilder will open at 09:00 on Thursday 6th August and the Striker Poll will open at 12:00 on the same day so pop back here to be part of them votes as well.

Select your Defenders

So far we have our goalkeeper so lets look at our defenders I have split this into 3 sections

• Right Backs
• Left Backs
• Centre Backs

Right Backs – At right back we have two obvious choices and both were with us last season, although for different parts of it.

Luke Garrard – Luke has been a long serving member of the team and last season suffered a nasty injury that meant he missed about half of it he made a welcome return in the Isle of Man

Jay Conroy – Jay originally was with us a few years ago but stepped in last season when Luke got injured. Will his conference National experience make the difference at the right back position?

Once you have selected your right back click vote and then Lets look at the Left Back Options.

Left Back – We have 3 real options at Left back

Chris Hussey – Last years young player of the year and after last year battling out with Mickey Haswell for the left back position it looks like he has some stiff competition again this year

Derek Duncan – One of the new players for this season who has joined from Ebbsfleet

James Snelling – One of our youngsters but may have involvement during the season.

Centre Backs

In our 4-4-2 formation we obviously need 2 centre backs so this is where the first tough decision will come in and obviously if you dont select someone as a centre back they maybe able to play in another position but this will be interesting.

The choices are

• Ben Judge – Last Years Player of the year
• Alan Inns – A big part of last years championship team
• Paul Lorraine – A welcome return was player of the year at Woking last year
• Brett Johnson - Joined us from Brentford on trial at the moment

As we need to make two selections we have two different polls so please make your selection on the first and then press vote followed by a different selection on the second poll.

–

Right you think that was tough? well next up will be Midfield now that will create problems.
