Midlands England 11

With the world cup on the horizon I have been thinking of an England team we could have put together from the six local teams.

My thinking was that I must have seen them play, so mid seventies onwards, and their best playing days may not have been in the Midlands

Some of the players may not be in their favoured position but will have played there at some time or other.

Some of my judgement may be clouded by to much dandelion and burdock as a child but we'll see.

This is mine and would be interested in others.

GK. D Seaman - Blues.
LB. D Statham - Albion.
CB. E Hughes - Wolves.
CB. S Bruce - Blues.
RB. C Todd - Blues.
LM. T Morley - shit ( but I counting the loan games for us)
CM. B Robson - Albion.
CM. G Cowans - shit ( I have to hold my hands up and say he was quality)
RM. T Francis - Blues (ok I'm going inside right here just to get him in)
CF. B Latchford - Blues.
CF. S Bull - wolves.

Subs.
S Pearce - Cov.
J Gallagher - Blues.
M Upson - Blues.
P Ince - Wolves.
K Hibbet - Wolves.
D Anderton - Blues.
H Kendall - Blues.
C Regis - Albion.
P Merson - Walsall.
F Worthington - Blues.
M Hartford - Blues.

I am bound to have forgotten plenty and the likes of Jeff Astle and Alan sniffer Clarke are a bit before my time.
