The stocky former West Ham United player has cast his net far and wide, in the process landing players from the previously ignored First Division. His wide-ranging selection has thus far yielded 54 players, a majority of whom are untested at international level. 

Some of the names hardly ring a bell when football is mentioned but players such as Nico United striker, Onkabetse Makgantai and Pelonte Lerole and Ogomoditswe Baoleni from Maun Tigers have become constant features in Butlers’ squad.
