    Thought he was a centre half? And stretching it, a right back?

    Reuben deserves a proper run in that position. In his last two starts there (Hull and Hudders) he's been a standout performer.

    The Star is full of **** usually, so I'm hoping they've spent that much time masturbating over the Blunts of late that they've got their wires crossed.

    It also says that Vaz Te has gone to Norwich, but didn't that deal collapse?

    They are so poorly written and also they often fail to name the reporter who has done the article.

    I can't get it to load, but I assume it's another case of incredibly bad journalism on their part. Just adding 2&2 together again and getting the usual incorrect answer.

    Let me explain how this works.

    The Star hope to pay for their web site through advertising. In order to convince the advertiser that their adverts are being seen, they will keep statistics about how many visit a page has had, and therefore how many times an advert has potentially been seen. Therefore they have to have some way of generating visits. Therefore, on days when there is no news, they have to generate it by re-writing stories or re-hashing information that is already in the public domain. These stories are not necessarily even written in the sports department. They are simply there to encourage visits.

    As a matter of fact, when did the Star (or the Chronicle for that matter) last break a story that was not already in the public domain because of rumour, twitter, Radio Sheffield or other internet source?

    Not sure mate. Someone was on here yesterday saying they thought he played LB for Palace last season. He is definitely right footed though. Personally I would stick with RNL at LWB but if we play a back 4 then a more defensive player will be needed.
