Timlin did a decent job at left back when we put him there.
On the wind up?

We put him at left back because we were short at the time, he isnt a left back but he did a steady (and yellow card filled) stint there. He certainly didnt get run ragged.

He was awful, no fault of his own as he was out of positon. The two games I can remember him playing at left back (Stockport and Brighton(?) at home), he was torn apart and not played there again.

Not his fault because you need pace as a left back..........he was awfull and in my opinion has nt been the same since. Saying that i wish him all the best and if he takes this opportunity with both hands good on him.

First couple of game at left back he was solid. As time went on he got steadily worse. Suppose it depends when you saw him as to what your opinion is of him as a left back.

My post was aimed at Dave, I agree with what you are saying. Hopefully he will push on and bring some bite to the middle of the park.

Dave i like you...you defend the team with a passion...but Timlin at left back was awfull. He is a centre midfield player who can pass well......so play him in centre midfield and let him pass the ball...........ITS EASY! Why oh why are so many players played out of position.

Timlin's not too bad, and its good just to have options. I have a feeling he will start on Saturday as I doubt he'd like being recalled just to sit on the bench.

I never said play him out of position at all.
He did a decent job at left back, as Batch said he got gradually worse but actually won man of the match for his first two performances at left back.
He isnt a left back - but he wasnt awful there, he did a job and got booked alot. He wasnt Ashley Cole or anything but he wasnt exactly Jason fucking Drysdale either.
He probably had McNamee infront of him to help him out as well, and McNamee to defending is what Fred Elliot is to being sober at football!

Harsh. He can still do a job at this level.
He hasn't proved himself at this level either at full back or midfield. There are too many games in midfield where he's non existent. As for full back he is better than Rose but makes Kennedy lookl ike Roberto Carlos.

he learned a lesson from pook and just goes missing for massive parts of the game. the plus point will be AOB's positional sense won't look so out of place now

Smith(?) Caddis Cuthbert Morrison Sheehan JPM Douglas Ferry Ritchie Austin Pericard
That's the team I'd like to see on Saturday if the players are all fit. If not then the following will also be acceptable...
Smith(?) Caddis Cuthbert Morrison Rose JPM Prutton Timlin Ritchie Austin Ball
If we play 4-5-1 with JPM in the middle again and give away a soft goal (or four) I will be mightily pissed off.
