Can't believe some of these selections!! lol Happy for anyone's input.....Soon the base XI will be finished and when anyone comes on as a panellist they can put their your own choice forward. I am thinking about an element where people can send me a video putting their choice forward, but not sure yet. Remember though people have watched for 70 years, 30 years, 10 years, 2 years and 6 months some fan's opinion on 'best' will be from the team they started supporting decades ago. A strong argument could be made that the 'Best XI' was last seasons starting line up (in most games) as they are the guys that finished in the highest league position in our entire history. That is why I specifically ask them for their 'favourite' not best - can't help how people vote or understand it though. If anyone wants to come on drop me a message. Oh right.Favourites. Then not the all time ultimate team. We have had some great players over the years that a lot of supporters will never have seen playing.

Even if it were best, that wouldn't necessarily mean the ultimate team. I can think of a few great players we've had who would probably not combine very well in the same team.

Indeed they wouldn't and obviously i don't really understand the definition of an ultimate team. Just some of the players mentioned in it so far made me chuckle !

Maybe don’t get involved then. It’s meant to be a bit of fun, whilst celebrating our upcoming anniversary.

I said at the time, I don't think Gary McCann would make it into any "best of" Sutton squad, but he doesn't half have a special place in my heart

I said at the time, I don't think Gary McCann would make it into any "best of" Sutton squad, but he doesn't half have a special place in my heart This is where I am going with it. The 'Ultimate XI' is just 22.2% of the title, the remaining 77.8% is 'Sutton United Talk Time on Podcast....' so it is just on angle of many. There have been fabulous players in my 35 years supporting the side, there have been brilliant players the 90 years before that AND there will be great players in the next 125 years - most of whom I will not see (not only because of the failing eyesight). There is a very loyal fanbase who have supported the club for decades, but there are others who are just as loyal & passionate who have only been with us for a season or two - so some of the names mean nothing to them. Happy for the conversations (it is why I thought of doing it) and can not wait for the next stage of the 'challenges' to the players that made it. As I said I will see how it goes then maybe open it up for entries to be sent in if people want to.
