    We have not got one.We needed 3 defenders during the summer and got none!
    Worst defensive record already after only three games.Sorry but Mcnulty should have gone he is a liability.
    Record from xmas is appalling.Where we are going we all know,Excuse after excuse from the manager,he is like a long playing record.We have heard it all before.

    Lee Collins was signed during the summer and is good enough if given a run in the side.

    Little bit unfair to blame McNulty when he hasn't even played a league game this season...I've seen Collins twice, both at Blackpool and at home against Cardiff and I was impressed, as Ossett says he could be a decent player if he's given the nod.

    We have had a clean sheet this season too... Some teams are still waiting for that

    Collins and Cranie?

    Who knows could fill the holes in our leaky defence


    BELIVE!

    Hassell Stones Cranie Collins

    No Wiseman Foster or Edwards, McNulty could replace stones at CB.

    IF. .... and i mean IF we win today

    Out of 6 proper games this season

    Rochdale
    Boro
    Wolves
    Brighton
    Swansea
    Bristol

    One is at the top of the prem, one has just been relegated and another was fighting for promotion last season

    Anyway if we win today thats 50% win rate and that would easly see us in this leauge next season :D up the reds

    Away from home we should try playing ten at the back.

    Thats how I'm looking at it. Win today and we've got six points from twelve which is far from relegation form. I think it will be our home form that keeps us up anyway.

    I take it Craine is a midfielder then?

    Get a grip, we've only played 3 games, in which I expected 0 points, 3 points today and we'll be double the points i thought we'd have.

    Whilst I agree with you regarding only played 3 games but our away defensive performances are alarming and need to improve. We as fans should be realistic but expecting to be defeated I hope the players don't think that way!

    it's the team as a whole that needs to be better at defending not neccesarily individual players,
