Who is the best player to play at right back if Fish is injured. Whipdale and Lee have played there but both looked poor. Both would rather go forward than defend. Is there anyone else.
 
Several people said it last month when we talked about cover for the full backs. It had to be Danny Jackman.
 
Would say Evans as he is out on loan still (I thought he was released) but we won't bring him back sadly, well I doubt we will.
 
To be fair, I think gioblues is being a bit harsh on Whelpdale who I thought was ok on Tuesday. The only time the back 4 was outpaced was when Legge and Barrett did not have the speed to deal with Potter when he scored the Oxford goal.
 
Jack Payne was pretty good when he covered for Fuller, oh yeah he has gone too

Yeah was going to mention him to.

I think at the moment if Fish is out our best option is Lee as Whelpdale is more attacking than him which left us open a few times, I know Fish does this but he can get back better so I would put Lee there as we don't really have any other options which is not good as we should have a good number of options.
 
whipdale did one good tackle in the second half but in the first half went forward a lot with Legge having to go right across to cover. Where was whipdale for the goal?
