    I hope so, 'cause the chances are that Wiseman won't be in the team if Stones is.

    I think if he's played well in pre-season (better than Wiseman?) then he deserves to start the season in that position.

    That has to be the incentive for any of the young professionals at the club - to know that if they impress when given the chance, they'll then have a run in the team.

    I've always felt we're a bit overprotective of the younger players - they should be chomping at the bit to play, and if they're showing they are good enough they should get a run in the team rather than just being dipped in and out - gives them a chance to make a position their own.

    Scotts a good good player and im almost 90% sure he will start on saturday. I think its most likely to be be a back 4 of
    Wiseman Mcnulty Foster and maybe stones.

    Wiseman isn't good good enough. I am hoping for:

    Stones Sonko McNulty Collins/Goldbourne

    or

    Sir Bob Sonko McNulty Stones

    Stones Foster Sonko McNulty (seen as he can play alright at LB)

    or

    Hassell Foster McNulty Goldbourne

    IMO I don't rate Collins highly at all

    I think he's equipped himself well

    And I doubt there'll be many who'd be disappointed or annoyed were young Stones to be selected.

    Sonko who has all that Premier League experience, is a better player and is physically imposing, or Foster who has never played above this level and has been a part of the worst defence in this league for the last 5 years. No you're right, let's stick with Fozzy. Good grief.

    Hence why I said 'hope', but don't let that get in the way of your usual contrariness.

    Because he is still one of, if not the best defender at the club.
