Marriott, Bignot, Underwood, Dempster, Gulliver, Hall, Butterworth, Carey, Tomlin, Lowe and Kitson.


I don't think many people would disagree with that. Possibly Darby instead of Kitson for a lot of people. I don't think many would have picked Shaun Carey, either.

I'd disagree with it.
I wouldn't have Marriott, Dumpster, Gulliver, Carey and certainly not Kitson.

He's only picked 3 from the all-time Diamonds XI we picked on here. Hall, Bignot and Butterworth.

Marriott? Dempster? Gulliver? You sure he hasn't just picked his mates? ;)

The NLP have this morning asked Burge to write about 50 words on each player (For his Non-League XI - 6 of the players are R&D) and it will be published in next weeks publication. :)
