We'd like your entries for Supporters Team of the Year- send them now, and you'll see them here!

Given that the season is now over and the dust has had time to settle, we thought we'd ask supporters of Pitching In Isthmian League sides to take on the role of managers and bring us the best eleven players they've seen in their division this season.

We'll feature each entry here, and so long as we get sufficient entries we'll also create a 'Supporters Team of the Year' for each division based on your votes.

What we need is that you tell us:

Your name
The team you support

And then that you pick your side from the division you've been watching, using a recognised formation and including a goalkeeper- and no matter how much you love attacking play we don't want a 0-0-10 formation!

Give us a few words about each player telling us why you've chosen them, and send them through to Ian at townsendaround@gmail.com

Only one other rule- we will allow no more than three players from the side you support. Favouritism is all well and good, but it doesn't make for interesting reading!

We look forward to hearing from you.

Shot of the Season: Martin Denyer We asked our fabulous photographers to pick their favourite photograph of the Pitching In Isthmian campaign, and explain why it’s important to them. Martin generally photographs Bognor, but he’s gone for a shot featuring the opposition.

Shot of the Season: Alan Edmonds We asked our fabulous photographers to pick their favourite photograph of the Pitching In Isthmian campaign, and explain why it’s important to them. Alan takes more fantastic shots than the entirety of the Heybridge Swifts forward line!
