Hampton & Richmond Borough are flying high after lifting the Ryman Premier Division title in April, prompting comparisons with ex-boss Alan Devonshire’s greats of the past.

But what would a combined team of his and current chief Alan Dowson’s respective National League South challengers look like?

The Richmond & Twickenham Times has a stab.

Wimbledon Times:

Matt Lovett (goalkeeper) – Countless top class and match-winning performances. Career cut short by injury.

Wimbledon Times:

Josh Casey (left back) – Outstanding at the back, although says he is better suited to midfield.

Wimbledon Times:

Moussa Diarra (centre back) – His goals made him a key man at both ends of the pitch last season. Outstanding form last year saw him move to National League Premier Barrow in the summer.

Wimbledon Times:

Dean Wells (centre back) – No nonsense defender, whose thirst for battle burned bright. The former Brentford trainee left Hampton to make more than 100 appearances for Basingstoke Town before a switch to League Two Stevenage Borough for whom he has now played nearly 100 matches in the Football League, scoring seven goals.

Wimbledon Times:

Graham Harper (right back) – One of the first names on Devonshire’s team sheet and is forging a new career in the game as assistant manager to Kingstonian boss Tommy Williams

Wimbledon Times:

Jamal Lowe (wing) – Tipped by boss Alan Dowson for a move into the Football League this January. Key to last season's Ryman Premier League title triumph and has hit the goal trail early this term.

Wimbledon Times:

Harold Odametey (midfield) – Midfield machine in the N’Golo Kante mould. One of Hampton's standout performers so far this term.

Wimbledon Times:

Elliot Godfrey (midfield) – Ex-Watford man who was the creative influence in the Devonshire years.

Wimbledon Times:

Brendan Kiernan (wing) – The ex-AFC Wimbledon man was a crucial signing last term and is proving his class again this time around.

Wimbledon Times:

Lawrence Yaku (striker) – Pace. Goals. Enough said.

Wimbledon Times:

Nicke Kabamba (striker) – Makes a perfect foil for Yaku up top and is highly rated by his manager and others in the National League South.

Substitutes:

Wimbledon Times:

Charlie Moone (striker) - Scorer of more than 100 goals for the club, with the vast majority coming in a struggling Ryman Premier Division team. Can't see him forging a partnership with Kabamba, but is definitely an option off the bench.

Wimbledon Times:

Alan Inns (Defence/midfield) - Very versatile player who enjoyed huge success at Hampton before moving on to help AFC Wimbledon and Woking lift the National League South title. Now starring at Kingstonian.

Wimbledon Times:

Stuart Lake (midfield) - Mr Dependable. Solid performer during two spells with the Beavers, but is best known for his efforts under Alan Devonshire.

Wimbledon Times:

Ian Hodges (striker) - Formed a deadly partnership up top with Lawrence Yaku and had more skill than given credit for.

Wimbledon Times:

Rob Paris (defender) - Man mountain of a centre half who chipped in with his fair share of important goals.
