Collins

Collins as Hero!

Got to give serious credit to someone who fights back from big adversity in the way he's done.

Not adversity more like persecution

 

[Pinchy]

Pinchy - he WAS a liability at CH because he isn't one - a half decent stand in.
He is a left full back - one that apart from a few games at the beginning of last season, no one has seen much of.

The detractors (as you call them) generally expressed an opinion (and justified for me) at centre half, where he doesn't look as comfortable as in his square peg square hole position of full back.

but, yes, well done to him and the defence in total. It is strange that a new CH, coupled with some organisation can make a world of difference - just what the detractors have called for, for 12 months.

UTB

I think you flatter the detractors. We all knew we needed a couple of centre-backs. I agree that J-Mac is best deployed at left-back. I also know that TK is not the answer at CB and am not afraid to repeat it...

good result

Only one goal conceded in 4 league games.

wasn't at all bothered when Collins was dropped last year as felt we could do better. When we didn't even sign a centre back to replace him and already hadn't replaced Maguire I couldn't understand what Clough was up to, when the full backs playing out of position started to lose form or fitness I was calling for him to get back in.

He seems to have done well since Edgars arrived and he will score a few from set pieces. Well done to him for sticking at it.
