This follows on from the What's your name? thread. Having revealed your true first name, if you wish to do so, please tell us your 5 a side team composed of players with the same first name as you. Being called Alan, I am going to jump in first before Allyo gets any ideas (happy to consider loan and swap deals). The rules are very flexible. AuldJag can have Robert, Robbie, Bob, Bobby etc (but not Auld, as he managed, but never played, and its a surname as well). All diminutives of William and Alexander are fair game as are all variants of Alistair. John can have Juan, Jean-Yves etc. I am much more generous than that guy who runs the pop-up quiz (going to be struggling with Philip!). Anyway, I will kick off. I am assuming all players are at the peak of their Thistle form and fitness. In goals, the one and only Alan Rough. Locking up the defence, but also probing down the sides and swinging them in, Alan Dinnie and Alan Archibald. Bossing the middle of the park, putting his foot on the ball, covering the gaps when required and drifting forward languidly to score, Alan Hansen. Pace, trickery and fire power up front, and because he so deserves success in a Thistle jersey, Alan Morgan. Beat that!
