Not in a fight, OTJ has height reach and weight advantage so it wouldn't be fair, but on the football pitch who is better?

I reckon Jonathan Douglas, but that's probably because I'm fickle and blindly optimistic :)

I agree and perhaps for those reasons.

I think its Douglas from the first few games but the question here should really be who would be better alongside Douglas and JPM.

Timlin or OTJ.

I'm in the minority, but I don't think Douglas has been that good so far.

Better than OTJ though, we got a far better player and deal than Norwich did.

douglas wins hands down, he isnt welsh

Why do we need someone alongside Douglas and JPM? I'd be happier if we went 4-4-2 with those two in the middle, once we get another decent striker.

mainly because we play 4-5-1 and dont have another decent striker in [optimism]yet[/optimism]

Two different types of player,but i prefer Douglas for the reason he's a ball winner and get's stuck in more.Im happy we missed out on OTJ if it mean't us getting Douglas.

Douglas without any doubt.
After watching both in a town shirt i think stupid to ask whos best.OTJ looked like he wasnt doing much when he played were as Douglas is always busy.Its not what he just does with his head its the talking and the positioning he does aswell.

Not only is Douglas a better player, i think he will be one of the best midfielders in recent years to play for us.

never rated OTJ, so douglas by default.

Douglas...though both would have worked out nice.

Thats hardly an acolade is it- its a bit like the best Bony M song.

One of the first things that Lambert did at Norwich was to drop 6 players.OTJ wasn't even in
the squad last saturday.Lambert wants more pace and  mobility in his midfield.

I wonder if last tuesday Pardew was watching and thinking, that Douglas was just the type of
player that Saints could have done with in their midfield?

Danny got the right player,well done.

OTJs playing against Sunderland and just scored an own goal. Nice.

Whaaaat?? You're kiddin, right? Douglas has been nothin short of superb! He's the type of player we've needed for years.
I'd have liked to see OTJ here, but Douglas wins hands down.

What about OTJ vs a marrow? How would that pan out?

Badly for the marrow.... but only just...

I think it would go to points.

It all depends on context, OTJ would be useless in the village fete's vegetable competition

That's a bit harsh - granted he might not get a little silver cup, but I think he could do a job at some of the smaller fetes. Would need to bulk up for the big shows, like the West of England though.

Of course, but it also depends on the judging criteria. I know this may be an unpopular opinion, but for me he's just not green enough to compete with some of the more established marrows. He should stick to the minor tournaments to build up a bit of a reputation before heading straight for the big time.

As long as he doesn't get played out of position in the carrots/spring onions categories, that would be a backwards step for the lad

 OTJ would be best suited for competing in the leek category, or controversially the laver category.

Douglas is better because nobody uses his initials instead of his surname.

OTJ, JPM, JPC...all a bit of a rubbish way to write their names.

despite both being 'International players' Douglas is better.

Would have liked 'em both, obviously. I'd take Dougie though given the choice. This is based solely on my hair envy. :nod:

Neither of em much cop inmo - Douglas and Obibodgeitup were the two weak links last night for me.

Both can get stuffed ?
