Just been comparing the squad now to that which was the first to attempt to get us back in the league (under Neil Woods) and I can say that there isn't one player in the SQUAD back in 2010 which would get in the first 11 this season. Think you'll agree when you see the squad below.
Surely proof that vast improvement has been made to the entire current squad put together by Hurst.


1 GK Scotland Kenny Arthur
2 DF England Peter Bore
3 DF England Lee Ridley
4 MF England Mark Hudson
5 DF England Darran Kempson
6 DF England Scott Garner
7 MF England Lewis Gobern
7 MF England Bryan Hughes
8 MF Republic of Ireland Micky Cummins
9 FW England Charles Ademeno
10 FW Scotland Lee Peacock
11 FW England Michael Coulson
12 FW Wales Robert Duffy
13 GK Republic of Ireland Nick Colgan
14 MF England Michael Leary
15 DF England Dwayne Samuels
16 DF Scotland Steven Watt
17 FW England Alan Connell
18 FW Wales Chris Jones
18 FW England Danny Carlton
18 MF Democratic Republic of the Congo Serge Makofo
19 DF England Bradley Wood
20 MF England Josh Fuller
21 MF England Nick Hegarty
21 MF Albania Andi Thanoj
22 MF England Adrian Forbes
22 MF England Dean Sinclair
23 FW England Tom Corner
24 FW England Nathan Dixon
25 DF England Rob Atkinson
26 MF England Drew Rhoades
27 DF England Mark Gray
28 MF England Andrew Wright
29 MF England Robert Eagle
30 GK England Steve Croudson (legend - Maybe the exception to the rule if he was fit to play)
31 FW England Sam Mulready
32 MF England Dayle Southwell
33 DF England Charlie I'Anson
38 GK England Richard O'Donnell
39 DF Scotland Robbie Stockdale
40 GK England Rob Peet

I'd happily have Coulson in the squad. Also give Southwell a chance after almost 30 goals last season.

Genuinely cannot even remember us having him, played 12 games in 28 days for us according to Wikipedia, now seeing he has signed for Wigan.

It's like a journey man's XI. Also how big is that squad, I shudder to think how big the wage bill was and the majority of that squad was dross. If we went up this season there's no way we'd have a squad that big again, even in league 2.

Alan Connell surely was signed by PH and Rob Scott. However, if we are including everyone who's played for us since we went down to the Conference but is not in the present squad then Andy Cook and Liam Hearn should be added to that list. Apart from Hearn and maybe Connell I agree that every member of the current squad is an improvement. Things are indeed looking up and I also make the point that PH is becoming a very good manager. Let's remember that when he first came to us he was a rookie and I guess some would say he still is because he has yet to manage in the league proper. However, every season he seems to improve. This surely must be our year. Up the Mariners.
