Shotton is not a left sided central defender

[Rapid]

I don't know if I'm on my own here but I think he's a weak link. He wouldn't even make the bench for me. I'm hoping it's just lack of match fitness but he just doesn't look good enough for this team. Against Forest he was dreadful. Prefer Zak at the back to Shotton, when Buxtons fit he'll walk back in!

Here's one for ya...

Buxton is fit and this hip flexer injury is a load of crap!

He had a rolllocking for the sending off against the dogs. Bucko had a go back at Steve Mac and has not made the squad since.

You listen how uncomfortable Steve Mac is when asked about Buckos injury..[/quote]

seen as he could hardly move a few games ago I don't think that's the case mate.

This board does make me laugh sometimes. I KNOW it is the case. Yes he does have a slight niggle that needs addressing between games, but he is match fit.

Shotton was massively improved second half though. Maybe just not match fit/ready yet.

I'd prefer someone left-footed in there, but he did a great job on Wilson.

As for Buxton, i can't believe that.

so simmo was lying in his recent interview? forgive me if I take his word over yours on this one.

Ok I'll take Jake Buxton's word over Paul Simpson's and we can agree to disagree.

got you to reveal your source though ;-)

I actually didn't see your response to wristslasher's post and didn't realise you stated it as fact the first time around.

you are neighbours after all.

[dcfcdavecov]

What did Bucko say to get dropped?

Your shoes and white socks up to the knee combo looks stupid?

Your cappuccino cup looks ridiculous at a football game?

Shave your hair off Steve, it's long ****ing gone at the front?

This Buxton business seems strange.

I'd hope even if they've had a spat, Buxton and McClaren can resolve this. He's clearly the best option at left centre back, and Steve is far too professional to let personal issues harm the team. I predict Buxton will be back soon after the international break.

So do you know Jake personally then? Or did someone who knows Jake tell you?

If what you're saying is true then Jake won't feature again for Derby and will be gone in January or next summer. If he does feature, does that mean your source is unreliable or that you're lying?

This is sad, if true. First unrest I've heard of for a good while.

Surprised he got a rollicking for the sending - off, not what I would class as a daft one, or him losing his head, and Bucko doesn't seem the type to have a go at the boss either.

Hope it doesn't fester, if it is true
