    Apparently he's played cb before, so should be ok.
    What I don't understand is why Mick has decided to change the team, they've been playing well enough in the last few herbsgames

    He won't sub a player being booed or be influenced by the crowd but he will drop said player for the next game.

    You aren't suggesting some sort of hallucinogenic influence are you?

    I suppose it would explain the late-game capitulations. It ain't easy when there's dragons coming at you.

    Not seen any of it yet ( was at Ashton Gate laughing at the Mrs support the owls and them collapsing ) but Chambo is primarily a CB!

    He is a **** CB, that was moved to RB, he became a **** RB that was moved back to CB for one game, in which we conceded 3 goals and so goes to prove he is a **** CB and RB:emoticon-0136-giggl

    I think he's a decent CB mate. He got player of the year at Forest, don't like him at RB at all though.

    The trouble is he'll need a game or two to get back up to speed as CB having spent so long at FB. The gap between him and Berra for the second goal yesterday was wide enough to drive a bus through.

    Maybe not managers, but I'd happily swap league positions.

    MM needs to go or he needs to bloody sort out his stubbornness/bloody mindedness, I went sat for the 1st time in ages and the whole Hyam thing could have been handled much better, he should have been replaced straight away, it was a red card offence and it was clear within mins that Hyam was out of the game or was going to be very soon.

    I have worked in Sport and have spent time with coach developers across a number of sports... There is a general theme in coaches/managers across all sports, that the vast majority will always resort back to their 'default position' It is what makes Mick successful as well as what limits him. Stubborness is a mechanism to deflect signs of weakness in the eyes of players, staff etc.

    But my single biggest frustration in football is it's inability to absorb any learning from other successful sports. The practices that take place in football are worlds behind that of British Cycling, British athletics, British rowing.. three organisations on our own shores that develop Olympic champions.

    99.9% of the time, a coach or manager is a former footballer, therefore will repeat the practices from when they were playing.. It's such a cyclical process with little to no innovation and football continues to operate in it's own little bubble spending millions of pounds inefficiently. Non footballers are often overlooked because they 'don't understand the game' which is a complete myth.. A fresh pair of eyes can only help drag football forward.

    rant over before I truly bring out the soapbox and write a novel..

    But to agree Hoppers, Mick needs to take learning and adapt to what is happening at the club, in the world of football and who sporting landscape. But I doubt he will, as if he had that capacity he would have won plenty by now.
