    Any news on the knock? (sorry if already been discussed, i couldn't find anything)

    How do we set up without him

    Gardner -----O'shea-----Diakite----- New RB Bloke

    or can Roberge do a job as LB

    Haven't heard anything mate not a great deal coming from the club very quiet for some reason however, if he is crocked then we are looking rough. I think Celustya (spelling) can play either side not sure about Roberge though, maybe we should have got a LB in during pre season, oh and another RB as maybe cover.

    Not sure. Really don't want Gardner playing though.

    He should have been sent off yesterday and whenever he's on it seems like a disaster is coming, be it a penalty given away or a red card

    In any case I think Colback is fine

    We'll hopefully get a lb in though

    Is Laing still at the club. Seem to remember alot of people really rating him and a lefty if i remember correctly. Could be worth a run out against MK.

    Not sure if he is still with us mate but he was good, got a feeling PDC doesn't have much faith in the youths though or would have seen a couple given a chance at the very least on the bench if only to pad it out all adds to the experience. He went somewhere on loan last year and did well by all accounts maybe PDC could look closer to home for players?

    Oh Christ!!! Never mind signing any more new players hows about we keep the current ones fit!

    Thought the injury curse left with Bruce and Campbell.

    Laing is a centre half. I think young David Ferguson is a left back who was on the bench towards the end of last season. Diakite had a shocker yesterday - hopefully he will improve as he gets more experience in the Premier League.

    Diakité had a shocker?! Bar one or two dodgy moments he was very solid. Anything that came to him directly was dealt with. Struggled at times with Lambert in aerial duels but most defenders would. Made one very good challenge to stop a goal

    From what I saw the lad had a very good debut.

    I totally agree.

    I'm looking forward to seeing why he thought Diakité was so bad

    Diakite had a dodgy first half but a much better second half.

    I think some people need to understand it takes more than 2 games to settle new faces in?

    which left me baffled as to our pre season fixture list. I know friendly games means nothing, but it certainly would have helped this group of players

    Any news on Brown as well. We were told it was a very minor knock. Yet no mention of our best defender when he's fit.

    Diakite does seem to have much pace - I'm not sure if he's fully fit. He made some very weak headers and was caught in two minds a few times. Luckily O'Shea had a very good game and covered him a couple of times.
