    He's pulled out of the Scotland squad with a knock to his ankle. Hope it's not to serious.
    Anyone think Francomb would play or would Ryan Bennett play at RB if needed?

    Or perhaps Benno....I think he would make a quality RB

    Currently injured as well I believe. I'm sure Rusty will be fine for West Ham <ok>

    Although Ian Culverhouse was probably the best right back we have ever had at the club I do prefer Rusty as he is far more attack minded, as more than adequately demonstrated in that clip. I also believe Culverhouse only ever scored two goals for us, 1 against Swindon and 1 against Everton (his only league goal - and I was there <ok>).

    I would not like to say who is best though as they are very different players.

    I probably agree, Culverhouse was probably a better right back but ultimately he was just that - a right back. Of course, it was a role he played superbly and my only criticism of him (and yes it is a little unfair) is that he never ventured forward anywhere near enough for my liking but then I really enjoy attacking football as played under Mike Walker (except for IC), Kevin Keegan etc <ok>

    In one year, I think it was our league one year, he played every single second of every match!

    It was the championship year, he only joined half way through the league one season.

    To this day I still have no idea how he a) dug the ball out from under the bar against Arsenal and b) how he managed to score from that angle against Cardiff
