Interesting little stat

[anglodan]

Evening all...fantastic win and performance today

Ok a little late night guessing game....

I found a list of squad numbers from the start of the season only 3 years ago.

Out of the 31 players that were registered, take a little guess how many play in our prided shirt regularly now.....................

Go on have a guess....

10 or 11 would be reasonable?

5 or 6 perhaps?

Nope

The answer is ONE!

He was Number 12: Matty Fryatt - and he hardly played that year

Here's the list (http://www.lcfc.com/page/LatestNews/0,,10274~1078797,00.html) LCFC.com

1. Jimmy Nielsen

2. James Chambers

3. Patrick Kisnorbo

4. Bruno N'Gotty

5. Gareth McAuley

6. Stephen Clemence

7. Iain Hume

8. Radostin Kishishev

9. Carl Cort

10. Dudley Campbell

11. Shaun Newton

12. Matty Fryatt

13. Hossein Kaebi

14. James Wesolowski

15. Jonathan Hayes

16. Alan Sheehan

17. Richard Stearman

18. Sergio Hellings

19. Elvis Hammond

20. Mark de Vries

21. Conrad Logan

22. Levi Porter

23. Joe Mattock

24. Louis Dodds

25. Max Gradel

29. Reneil Sappleton

30. Eric Odhiambo

31. Paul Henderson

Yes, Clemance, Gradel, Wesolowski, DJ & Logan are also there, but they dont really count eh..

Anyway, just thought it was an interesting perspective to share our squad only 3 years ago..

I say what a dramatic improvment.

Some interesting questions came up in my head i'd love your thoughts on:

1} How would Pearson got on with this lot?

2} Anyone from this list we'd have back? I'd go for Hume. I loved his effort, and under a better manager could have been devestating

11. Shaun Newton

I still have nightmares.

Some amazing work done by Pearson.

Yeah unbelievable really, massive overhaul of the squad. Personally I'd take Hume and Kisnorbo back but I'm not really too bothered. No wonder we got relegated

Its actually nice to have a settled squad for 2 seasons isn't it?
