    right back/centre back

    Do we need another centre back or right back?after Lowe's excellent display at right back and Baptists very solid display at centre back
    If we get the chance to sign Keene then yes go for it otherwise I would be quite happy with what we have.
    Will bowyer stick with Lowe at right back?I have my doubts on that.

    Definitely need another center half. We have Lowe, Baptiste and Henley for RB cover. Oh to find a 21 year old Ryan Nelsen on a free somewhere.

    We will go nowhere then saxo right back was one of our weak areas Lowe looks like a very good player in that role
    Why make that position weak again while weakening the midfield at the same time?

    that`s your opinion. not one shared by people within the game, where lowe is rated highly as a midfielder.

    3 players to cover RB, only 4 players to cover 2 center half spaces suggests we need another center half, especially if Kilgallon is now injured.

    If Kilgallon is injured then that maybe the slice of "luck" rovers need ...Baptiste at CB ..Lowe at RB ..the team looked more solid with these two forced into these positions ...and if all goes well GB may finally get called a tactical genius !!

    Everyone Happy!

    It's a question of who's available?and if there is a good defender who do you drop?not many players want to sign for somebody to warm the bench

    re: right back/centre back

    Lowe is now 1st choice RB ,with Henley and Baptiste to cover . CB we have Hanley , Kilgallon , Baptiste , O Connell and Songoo . LB we Spurr , Olssonn and Kilgallon .
    I`d say we are covered . My preferred starting XI
    Robinson
    Lowe , Kilgallon , Hanley , Spurr
    Marshall , Evans , Cairney , Conway
    Gestede , Rhodes
    Subs
    Eastwood , Baptiste , Henley , Olsonn , Dunn , Brown.
    All bases covered .
