Our manager sent £1.5 million on a right back

In the third division. Not only does our manager, who spent £1.5 million on a right back in the third division, not play him at right back, he forgot to sign any centre backs. Genius. Pure fucking genius.

Pissed posted thread. Where was the 1.5 mill sent?

 

[GAZBLADE]

I wish it was sent to me!!

 

[Bladesman]

It was more than that according to Jim.

That's not bad money for a bearded Talisman in today's market.
When you also consider they want 70 mil for Falcao it looks a bargain.

Ah the return of late night bash hands.

Brayford in todays market and the uplift he gave us when finally brought back , is worth every penny . His talents are being wasted at CB . This is not Brayfords fault , that he is being used as a temporary fill in . It is however weakening the team , not strengthening it , with him being out of position . You could also say the same about Basham playing out of position.

Unsatisfactory state of affairs , especially we are also relying on the young lad Kennedy , who IMO should not have played yesterday , but just goes to show , desperate times means desperate measures.

Don't let us start on Brayford - he has done nothing wrong.

Everyone in life has to adapt to change, footballers are no different, playing out of position should not be to much of a bind, they are professionals after all. Getting experience in different positions can only be good for the club in the long term.

Could try Howard at CB and move Brayford back to RB.

That's the problem, he's left us that thin on the ground with centre halves he's having to fill in with out of position stop gaps, who would be better employed in their rightful positions.

He'd have been better playing Butler and Collins all season, while not brilliant they'd have been good enough at this level and an improvement on what we have been missing ie natural centre halves, aerial ability. leadership. He's obviously had issues with both of them, which I don't have a problem with but you move them on soon as (which he did with Butler but not Collins) and more importantly get in proper replacements straight away which he hasn't done.

Which position were we in before his arrival?

Genius post fella. Selective commentary at it's.....worst? It would be so easy to pick holes in your woeful jigsaw of a post. Most definitely one from the 'I told you so' school of miserablism.

Have you got a link to the centre backs available at the time?
