So what would be your answer to our problem at left back ? Also I cannot see how playing in a different defensive position would be effected by a previous injury record. If you are likely to have a recurrence of an injury it does not matter which position you happen to be playing.

I don't get your claim that trying Mulgrew at left back is ludicrous. If we didn't have a problem at left-back, then it would be ludicrous, but we do. So something new needs to be done if we continue to play 4 at the back.

Even with pace Bell does not stop his opponent from getting crosses in. In my opinion the most important asset for a full back is to be able to defend. Bells positional sense is appalling he makes it easy for any opposition player to pass the ball to the man, who he is meant to be marking.

Personally I think Mulgrew would do better at left back than Williams or Bell. Whatever shape his peg is.

Have we got a library ?

If we beat Hull it wont matter what has been done, If we lose whatever has been done will be questioned.

Rothwell or Rodwell ?

During our good season we got loads of plaudits for our away backing of the team due to our singing of songs about the Rovers. Now we seem to be reverting back to anti-burnley songs.

You are entitled to your opinion on something that MAY happen, but the fact is we are regularly getting exposed at left back with the players we are playing there at present. The central pairing are starting to look reasonable without Mulgrew. To me the left back position needs to be sorted, putting Mulgrew there may solve that problem and also still give us the weapon of his freekicks. And a big point is, it wouldn't cost anything.

As an attacking full-back I would have to agree, but as a defensive full-back (which is the main object of the position) He can head a ball, tackle, read the game, pass forwards, better than any other option I have seen. We should not be in the business of prolonging players careers, but in getting the best for the Rovers out of players.

My line up would be :- Raya Nyambe Lenihan Rodwell Mulgrew Travis Reed Rothwell Dack Armstrong Graham

1, 2, 3, 4,?

I would say Bell is playing because he is least worse

They should have been providing this service since September when the trains have been effected by industrial action every Saturday.

For Me :- Raya Nyambe Lenihan RodwellMulgrew Travis Reed Rothwell Dack Armstrong Graham

Remember Beamo.

neither have we.

Can Brereton play at center-half ?

But he was still on when the other two where scored

I thought tonight we showed bags of effort but very little quality. I think Bell shows he is a poor player, because he gets involved but doesn't produce anything. Brereton on the other hand I cannot judge if I think he is a poor player because he just doesn't get involved in the game at all.

Can he play left-back ?

The thing is he says that Armo was probably just on-side, Well to me that says that the linesman got the decision right. He then rants on about, if it had been a Millwall player it would have been flagged off-side. As that never happened, it is hypothetical. The only sensible comment came from the lad in the back, with his view on MOM.

I think it would mark the beginning of a lot more fans staying away from Ewood
