So most of your quotes are not even yours, just copied from a site full of fickle supporters that would rather get rid of player that just needs some encouragement and a decent manager to get him back on track, fortunately we have that, because if it was run my some of the posters on that site, we would be back to mid table mediocrity before you could say knee jerk reaction.

i would give naughton a go at right back and make walker have to earn hes place back.

naughton was brillant on sunday and it was when he went off that ekotto came on tha they got down that side twice.
and before you say oh im moaning about ekotto i can understand why avb brough him on as hes more attack minded

But our goal came from Ekottos left footed cross.Maybe he will rest Walker when Bennys up to speed, but copying some moron from a moron site by calling one of our own Brian dead is not on.
