If he's as good as Chris Sutton, Dion Dublin or even Andy Rowland we may have a chance of scoring😁
Dublin and Sutton went the other way didn’t they? |

Obviously I truly hope it works and I look a right cunt but if Plan B is a reserve centre back who didn't have a squad number a fortnight ago up front then we are properly, genuinely lost.
It’s definitely an upgrade on going one up front with Calvin Andrew |

Yes but they were all forwards who all became centre backs, not many do it the other way! |

They could play either and often switched positions for many games depending on injuries within the team |

Paul Hart was very clear that it was three up front and your refusal to admit that JP McGovern was a valid striker reflects poorly on you. |

Sutton didn’t go back till after his time at Celtic. Ditto Dublin and his spell at Norwich. Before then they were out and out strikers |

Only later in their careers though, neither them or Andy Rowland played as a CB until late in their careers after long careers at centre forward. |

Broadbent has played 95 minutes in the league, not exactly enough to base a conclusion on that he’s good enough to play regularly this season and the managers actually see the players train! Grounds started off well and progressively got worst, any he’s on now and up front!
Yeah but my actual point was we can only judge a player truly on their last game. Broadbent did well last game, he should have started over Grounds - agreed? When a CB got injured and one that played well last game is on the bench...go figure. Yeah he is. No doubt he'll pop up with a 90+5 game saving thronker now  |

I'll remind you again, Tom Broadbent was still under the charge of a manager who refused to play him, regardless of available option. It seems he might have another of a similar ilk.
Rob Hunt is a utility full back capable of playing LB or RB. When he has played, has has played in either of these positions. The same could be said for the likes of Caddis (usually). They personally both may be prefer to play at RB but where you prefer to play isn't always the main factor in a squad game. At L2 both players are capable of playing LB or RB. Caddis could probably do both at L1 and has done previously but we're talking this season with an older player now. Rob Hunt, currently can't play either his "preferred position" or on the other side at L1 level.
Why the manager has fucked around with the team (bar injuries) from the previous match, I don't know. Especially in defence where some kind of continuity is key. I think, even if we disagree on the ability of Rob Hunt at this level, Grounds should not have started.
I don't think he refused to play him last season, he was just 4th choice CB when he was fit and available. This season, maybe. I don't think you can accuse Sheridan of treating him unfairly when he has played him for more minutes in his few games in charge than Wellens did for the past season and a half. |

I'd not trust either of them to play RCB. Far too risky based on the available evidence. |
