i'd play Marcus Hall at CB instead of Willo with Clarkey at LB & Commons on LW. At least Hall will have more pace needed to deal with Roberts & Ellington. I'd still like us to bring a commanding CB in but feel Hall will do ok if need be.

No need to start putting 'sqaure pags in round holes' again. If we have to switch the defence round I would prefer to see Wilson in at right back and Halls moving into centre defence

I'd much perfer to see a new CB at the brit by Saturday. Ellington is going to be a complete nightmare, as weill Roberts.

Well said RRP - or even get Owen back from Oldham?
Hall as centre back - no way - he just about coped with being the wide man of a back three at the start of the season but a centre back - never.

Svard is going to be a good player but its a big ask to ask him to take the CB spot

what about Clarke at CB and Halls @ LB .......
could always loan Brynyar back, as we know hes a very tidy CB

What about Thommo taking on the position with Wilson in his place at RB. The lad (Wilson) would not let us down.

tommo already plays at CB
we are looking to replace his partner Williams
J Halls is at RB, but could switch to CB with Wilson at RB

I hope we don't end up having to have round pegs in square holes again.

I would say that if we dont get a new cb in then expect Williams to play.
Personally if he is replaced then I would like to see Owen given his chance.

I know TP has a reluctance to throw young players into a relegation battle but that's hardly the case now is it? Ok, we are not sure of staying up yet but, realistically, 3 wins or 9 points from 15 games will see us safe so we are hardly putting huge pressure on the players are we?
I'd get Owen back and play him on Saturday and I'd have Wilson on the bench and bring him on for half an hour or so if/when the opportunity arose - possibly allowing us to see what a Halls/Eustace partnership looks like in midfield.
There really isn't much point in having an Academy if players in their early 20s are not deemed ready for introduction to the first team on a fairly regular basis. Both have done well on loan at league level and both deserve the chance to show what they can do.

What about Colin Cooper at Boro?
Always looked solid enough. Would probably excel more in Div one
