    ...which means our centre-back situation going into next season is, as it stands:

    Lees - half-competent, half-****wit. WILLINGLY KEEP.
    Kisnorbo - crocked. RELUCTANTLY KEEP.
    Bruce - incompetent tit. BIN HIM.
    O'Brien - lazy, ****e and overlooked by Warnock despite having plenty of chances to improve and get into the team. KILL HIM.
    Robinson - can play CB, but made errors and unlikely to be signed next season unless it's last chance saloon time. BIN HIM.
    Bromby - crocked. RELUCTANTLY KEEP.

    O'Dea has been more consistant than Bruce and Bromby. I O'Dea is not good enough, why keep Bruce and Bromby?

    Won't we have to keep Bromby now he's long-term injured? No-one else will take him on, so it's either pay up his contract or strap him to the treatment table for the remainder of his employment.

    Retirement via a testimonial is best option.

    Yeah I reckon he needs a testamonial, can't have saved much on his £14 a week wages.

    Lees - O'Dea was much better
    Kisnorbo - crocked. So O'Dea was much better
    Bruce - O'Dea was much better
    O'Brien - O'Dea was much better
    Robinson - O'Dea was much better at CB
    Bromby - O'Dea was much better

    So we got rid of O'Dea.

    And who the hell is gonna play at CB v Leicester? Defintely not someone as good as O'Dea, but we are still paying his wages.

    Daft, stupid decision that one, Warnock

    Good thing nothing's running on the game then, isn't it? And Lees is better (and will be much better) than O'Dea.

    I did wonder about the insurance aspect myself, but the more I think about it, the more I believe that insurance will only be paid out of the player is forced to retire through injury (permanent loss of an asset, effectively). Can't imagine any club would be able to afford full injury cover premiums.
