Edit: It’s a good attempt at something to get us thinking though

Ha, nice one. Crossley very cheap! Majewski expensive...

 

[Alf-engelos Mindminackers]

Like this Robbie Nice spin on things

Needs some more players adding though:

Cooper
Bohinen
PVH
Antonio
Webb
MON
Lascelles


And Rice obv

It wasn't meant to be a catch all.

Unfortunately can't edit the original post, but if the mods want to add these in that'd be good.

 

[DanR]

I think this is 100m on the button, which is the first time ever the budget has been stuck to.

Team:
Shilton
Perch - Walker - Dawson - Shorey
Stone - Keane - Sow - Woan
Roy - Collymore

Subs:
Crossley, Worrall, Osborn, Commons, McGugan, Grabban, Holt

I confess I'm still reading through the forum in case anything interesting comes up, but I'm rather more interested in picking my Tesco Click and collect order at the moment than picking a football team. So I'll pass.

I'll do a similar thread in down the pub. £100 budget, bread = £1, beans = £1, pasta = £50, toilet paper = £200.

I'm gonna add them into mine then


Crossley 1m

Cash 5m, Morgan 6m, Dawson 6m, Pearce 12m

Stone 8m, Bohinen 6m, Keane 9m, Antonio 6m

Collymore 15m, Roy 7m

81m

Bench
McGugan 1m, Osborn 2m, Beasant 1m, Wozza 4m, Tyson 1m, PVH 6m, Geddy 4m

19m

100m on the nose methinks

Powerhouse of a team with plenty of skill & quality. Those flanks would absolutely decimate the opposition.

Pending delivery of bargain basement Bohinen (with a clause in his contract that means he's sold for not much more) or reduced fat Webb from Alf's list, I'll go with this

I'll take a Shorey from the left backs aisle as he's only just over 40% of the cost of the usual option (£5m). And I'll go with one of those imported Louis-Jean's too (running total £9m).

I'll take a Gemmill, and allow the substitution of Scot in place of Archie if necessary (takes it to £17m).

Ok, wandering over to the strikers section, let's chuck in a Francis and a Roy (£36m spent on 5 players).

Guedioura wouldn't be my usual selection for the midfield but let's add him too - £40m spent....

Tempted by the Raddy Majewski, but noticing the £9m off offer on Carvalho's I'll go with that instead so I'm on £44m with 11 players needed.

Really should get a John Robertson, but with the limited funds available I'd better take the two for £16m wingers offer on Stone/Woan, to take it to £60m.

Let's add a Chris Cohen, and take the £3m Figs bargain offer too - £69m spent.

Ok, assuming he's not past his sell-by date I'll have a Michael Dawson too, so I'm only £75m.....make that £77m as I'm panic buying an Ameobi at this point.

Welcome back Guy Moussi - £79m spent!

Err, can we take the Louis-Jean back to the shelves please I'm upgrading to a Viv Anderson - £83m spent.

Let's go with Shilton for £10m, and I'd better throw in a Crossley, so I've got £6m left for two players.

I will have that Raddy Majewski, and splurge a million on Lichaj too.

------------------------------------------------Shilton--------------------------------------------

V.Anderson-----------------------------Dawson---------------Figueroa------------------------Cohen

Stone---------------------------------Guedioura-----------A.Gemmill-----------------------Woan

--------------------------------------Francis-------------Roy-----------------------------------

Waiting in the cupboard: Crossley, Lichaj, Shorey, Moussi, Majewski, Carvalho, Ameobi

Promotion contenders at least.

 

[Kjetil Osvold's Cat]

If Bohinen's are only £6m I'll put my Geddy back on the shelf, and swap Viv Anderson out again so I can add Des Lyttle instead though!

 

[MaxiRobriguez]

I'll allow Bohinen for £6m. Personally would have made him £8m but if it helps a few people sneak in on budget then so be it.

 

[MaxiRobriguez]

New prices:

Cooper - £5m
Bohinen - £6m
PVH - £10m
Antonio - £6m
Webb - £5m
MON - £7m
Lascelles - £5m

Sorry Alf you can't have PVH for £6m so you'll need to try again.

Straight swap for Grabs then

How come Shorey is allowed? Was never a Forest player

Mix of players from various points over the last 50 years when we were decent, plus a couple of crappo cheapo's for makeweight bench options.

 

[Timothy Pope]

Where’s Gunter?

Although going by how long the Gunter money has lasted he’s too expensive for a team with a £100m limit

Chris Bart-Williams

[MaxiRobriguez]

Gunter £3m.
Chris Bart Williams £4m.

Mods - if you can edit the original post with amended players prices in the comments that'd be grand.

 

[GOBIAS]

Where is Danny Sonner. Can't take this seriously without him.

 

[Di Natale]

Shilton

Louis-Jean Morgan Walker Pearce (C)


Keane (VC)


Lolley Reid



Majewski


Collymore Earnshaw




Subs:

Holt
Tyson
Commons
McGugan
Lansbury

Perch

100m, formation 4 - 1 - 2 - 1 - 2 Diamond, Keane sitting, Lolley and Reid on the wings, Majewski providing the through balls to the deadly front two.

Wot, no Brian Roy, Ian Storey-Moore, Johnny Metgood, Joe Baker, Peter Withe, Tony Woodcock, Duncan McKenzie, Terry Hennessy, Jack Burkitt, John Barnwell, Henry Newton...
I don't know if this team would cost £100m or more:
Shilton
Anderson MacKinlay Hennessey Pearce
Francis Metgood Storey-Moore
Colleymoore Baker Robertson

Shame I couldn't find a place for MacKenzie, or Withe or Woodcock or Bohinen, or so many more!
We have had magnificent players over the years...
