Here's the 4th Division team:
Joe Lewis (Peterborough)
Craig Pead (Brentford)
Stephen Foster (Darlington)
Danny Swailes (MK Dons)
Dean Lewington (MK Dons)
Jason Puncheon (Barnet)
Keith Andrews (MK Dons)
Lloyd Dyer (MK Dons)
George Boyd (Peterborough)
Jack Lester (Chesterfield)
Aaron McLean (Peterborough)
Not a bad choice - with one glaring exception.
Craig Pead is only the third best right back at Brentford and, believe me, the competition isn't strong. I can only imagine it's a sympathy vote from the likes of George Boyd or any of the other wingers who've ripped him a new arsehole this season. Bizarrely, Pead also made last season's team of the year with champions Walsall who promptly released him presumably on the grounds that he couldn't cope with 3rd division football.
At this time of the year one of the few pleasures available to supporters of teams like Brentford is compiling lists of the players they'd like to get rid of and never again have to pay to watch. Pead is on just about everyone's list only shortly behind utterly useless goalkeeper Simon Brown. Perhaps the lowest point of a miserable season was at Darlington when Pead and Brown actually started trading blows. Brentford fans were encouraging the ref to send both of them off.
Any strange or controversial selections in the other leagues' teams?
