I don't understand Fats,maybe i'm being a bit dense :-))( ,but can we have anyone from the past? Do they have to be alive or to be players we've seen?Can i for instance choose myself [Harold Larwood  ],and the hardest captain ever the iron duke himself D.R.Jardine? I can't do a team till i know  . |

I was a small, fat child in a welfare house
There was only one thing I ever dreamed about
And fate has just
Handed it to me - whoopee
