ECFC Managers XI

[haka]

A little diversion while we wait impatiently for new signings to arrive from Barcelona or Brora ...

Pick a team made up of players who have managed Exeter City in the club's history (not including caretaker managers for a game or two). Assume the players are at their peak. Rate them only as players. For example, you don't need many hands to count the wins under managers Gerry Francis, Noel Blake and Gary Caldwell, but they could all play a bit.

Some probably pick themselves, some positions are harder than others (we might be struggling for strikers, does that sound familiar?)

Let's start with Peter Fox in goal. Anyone else?

Terry Cooper left back, Alan Ball centre midfield

 

[fred binneys head]

Centre backs - KMT and SGC.

Terry Cooper left back, Alan Ball centre midfield

Probably not going to get too many arguing with those two.

Ball alongside Gerry Francis in midfield.....

Noel Blake alongside KMT and SGC in a back three. We would literally never concede.

And Neil McNab?

Was Kevin Nicholson a left back? Could he be right wing back for us with TC on the left?

 

[Snakebite]

Wasn’t Tiswas a midfielder too for Southampton?

Eamo up front (RIP).

And John Newman at centre half alongside Noel Blake, Matt Taylor and Gary Caldwell. We’ll play a 6-3-1.
