I couldnt find a link on the Argus website but for those not in the know the Argus runs this full page Albion XI article every week. Previous entries have been an eleven consisting of former Spurs players, an XI of Irish players etc. Last week they had a team consisting of players who were on our books but had not actually played for the Albion.

If someone else can find the link then please put it up here.....but trust me you are not missing anything.

So who is in the team?

Carl Wilson-Dennis?
Keith Lowe?

 

[pasty]

Didn't we sign someone a few years ago only to sell him on to Hibs for a profit before he'd played a game for us?

 

[HseagullsH]

Jack Compton?

If i remember right, Shane McFaul had 1 appearance for two minutes and never touched the ball

 

[pasty]

AHA! By the power of google...

Paul Holsgrove.

Got him from Stoke City on a free, then sold him to Hibs for £110K. Appearances for us? None.

Johnny Dixon?

Johnny Dixon?

He played against 9 man walsall last year, albeit a sub. Some good suggestions so far, can you make them into an Albion 11 though?

 

[Frutos]

Is Kanchelskis in there?

Jack Compton?

Good shout Jack Compton saw him play this season for WSM and he was excellent think he's now at Falkirk cant be any worse than the crap we have in defence now

 

[Barrel of Fun]

Bakayogo? I see Tranmere are very keen to hold onto him.

 

[Statto]

Steve Book.

 

[Durlston]

The team is:

Steve Book
Keith Lowe
Peter Reed
Terry Norton
Paul Holsgrove
Paul McGuinness
Jack Dineen
Ally Dick
Kevin Russell
Roy Hales
Lee Cormack

Great bit of business by Nobby Horton for Paul Holsgrove.£100k profit.

Surprised Kevin 'Rooster' Russell never made an appearance especially as he had a long career at Wrexham,Bournemouth,Leicester and Burnley.

 

[Goldstone Rapper]

Wouldn't Gareth Barry fit in there?

 

[Joey Jo Jo Jr. Shabadoo]

Wouldn't Gareth Barry fit in there?

I am guessing that The Argus have picked the team from players we've signed on proffesional contracts rather than youth products that left us before turning pro.
