Is this a swap for Barnett?

 

12 yellows, 1 red in 27 appearances last season

 

The Northampton fans I know do not rate him at all but perhaps he can do a job for us (I was wrong about Brown and Whalley last season so I will make no further comment on Deegan until I have seen him in a Town shirt). I suspect Black is on his way or , if not, will be played further forward. I hope Weso is staying. I agree with you KDS that the disciplinary stats look dire.

 

That's nowhere near Black's stats is it?

 

13 yellow, 2 red in 36, so not much to choose. As GM says Black on the move?. Can't afford both in the same XI

 

Perhaps we are working on the assumption that each will be suspended for roughly half the season so we wont need to play them both together.
