    Worth remembering that the different CB roles aren't really that interchangeable, there are certain spots that some players will excel in and some will not. The way Jones sets up is his central CB is a bastard who puts in challenges, wins headers and makes the centre forward's life miserable. The RCB and LCB are expected to see a fair amount of the ball and send it up to the wingbacks or further to get the ball up the pitch quickly. They've also got to be able to get across to cover the space the WB will vacate if there's a turnover of possession. They have to be mobile, relatively comfortable on the ball and ideally have a bit of pace to support their WB a bit and get out to and marshal opposition wingers. 
    Lloyd looked very good in the few times he played for Jones. We held a Lincoln side that went on to beat everybody for a while, drew with Derby and kept a clean sheet against Pompey. I'd rather put Isted at RCB than Lloyd but when he only has to think about clearing things and giving the ball to the CB next to him he's pretty effective. REG on the other hand isn't really physical or aggressive enough to go in that central role but his speed and versatility make him a useful option at RCB. Even though Lloyd and REG on paper play in the same position you wouldn't swap them round. Same with Gillesphey, he's closer to a left back than his is a central CB. Alex Mitchell can fill RCB or CB because he's quick and a monster but you have to imagine Jones is grouping them per spot not as an overall bunch. At the moment I think we'll see Mitchell-Lloyd-Gillesphey on day one.

    And watching us play football again will probably make the head thing worse

    Ronnie ! Are you still writing and speaking in 'Old Anglo Saxon' your posts can be pretty wild at the best of times without us having to refer to the doomsday book to see what the feck your on about!

    I don’t think we need anymore goalies when we’ve now got defenders that can defend🥸
    On this note, after the flurry of excitement when we did have our 2-3 week period of announcing signings. We have only signed 1 centre back so far, despite letting two go and Ness clearly on the way out. I know some will say Josh Edwards is additionally a centre half but looks like he has spent more of his career as a winger as opposed to a centre back! I do hope we seem some more movement soon

    That I think, sums it up nicely from my perspective.
    From my perspective I think you know fuck all.

    OK, from my perspective;
    IN
    Whatsisname
    The bloke with the long hair plays up north
    Short arse always scores against us

    OUT
    Him with the funny name
    Bloke with bad breath 
    The one who wears a wig
    The one born with an R in the month

    That should do us nicely.

    Ben Wilson, goalkeeper at Coventry is on his final year and looks like he will be going down to their No 3 this season. No rumour but hopefully is on the radar.

    Now that would be a smart signing. Can't see him getting many games with the Swedish international keeper they've just signed and Brad Colins ahead of him. Offers a threat from setpieces too - scored the other season ;)

    Ben Wilson is an example of how transfer dominoes might bring a keeper to us. Last week he wouldn't have been on the radar. He now is.

    That is why I want us to wait so we get in someone of the right quality.

    Well if he signs for us he automatically becomes good and my Coventry reserve keeper specialist mate will tell me we’ve signed a great one there and all his mates are disappointed he left and the recruitment team have all been shoddy in not keeping such an outstanding prospect.

    Yup... Just a league higher, whilst Coventry lost on penalties rather than a last minute header

    Wilson and Isted are not the same. Wilson has significantly more experience than Isted had. Wilson has played 104 games in the last 4 seasons for a team in the Championship, including 47 in the season before last.

    Isted had played 22 for a team in League One, and 44 games for teams in non-league. 

    If we can get Wilson he would be a good signing.

    If we sign a first choice GK then I’m sure it will be someone that’s an obvious number 1. We’re unlikely to be looking to sign potential or someone on the way up because we’ve already done that with Mannion. Hes our punt for the future and Isted and AMB are not considered to be that by Jones, and one at least will depart. Looks to me as if we’ve been targeting the right sort of player but our lowly status and financial restrictions and a bit of bad luck have worked against us. I’m sure that we will get that player once the PL are sorted for squads and The Championship have picked up the PL loans.

    I'd be shocked if Wilson dropped to league 1

    Jack Bonham could be another option - Stoke have signed Viktor Johansson from Rotherham and Bonham could be second/third choice. Ex Gillingham though....
