I thought it might be of interest to look at the sides we put out on the opening day of each season since JG's first full season back.
(Neil Young's final match squad was: Ormson, Connolly, Garvin, Smalley, O’Hanlon, Menagh, Baggie, Montrose, Brewster, Margetts, Ledsham. Subs: Tonge, Russell, Rule, Marsden, Odejayi)
Under JG:
1st league game of 2016/17
Subs: Ormson, Carney, Stopforth, Amis, Spencer
1st league game of 2017/18
Subs: Ormson, Smalley, Hampson, Walker, McKenna
1st league game of 2018/19
Subs: Ormson, Smalley, Mantack, Dimaio, Bell
1st league game of 2019/20
Subs: Ormson, Jackson, Osborne, Curran, Bell
Just as an example, here's just one starting 11 we can put out this time round:
Subs: If everyone is fit, players that would have started last season won't even make the bench this opening day, such is the improvement of the squad.
Furthermore, it highlights just what an achievement it was to come up from the NLN with (I would argue) a weaker starting 11 and to have such a good run early on, and a high finishing position with largely players who came through from NLN with us.
