Tunnicliffe Recall?

[blue and white army]

Is there a clause in his MK Dons loan to recall him? We definitely need him back at the heart of defence while Virgo sits out with his 3 game ban.

 

[Janbha]

no need, el bad is back and he is (and i quote) the clubs best defender

I think 28 days with no recall - not sure though. In El Abd (or the red card appeal) we trust

 

[mcshane in the 79th]

Can't recall in the first month

 

[RM-Taylor]

Virgo will be banned for more than 3 games as that's his 3rd or 4th sending off this season

You're right, we can't recall him until the 28 days are up. Plenty of other options though - El Abd as a straight replacement, Painter to Centre and El Abd, Hoyte or McNulty at left back etc. Just a shame that Virgs will miss 4 games as he's in great form.

 

[SirDouglasLoft]

Painter at centre back.

 

[Simon Morgan]

Virgo banned for 4 games. El-Abd in the middle for me

 

[CliveWalkerWingWizard]

I think we need Tunnicliffe back if not in the team as cover on the bench when does the 28 days run out ?

 

[Goldstone Rapper]

Painter at centre back.

 

[We're the Stripes]

Yeh, Painter shifted to CB & McNulty in at LB is my initial thought. Not sure if that's too much of a shake up though, considering how solid we've looked with a settled defence recently.

 

[Rookie]

El-Abd will be playing and then up to Virgo to get the place back off him once the 4 game suspension is over. Might see McNulty on the bench though

 

[BensGrandad]

I would expect Gus to bring in El Abd either at CB, or at left Back and move Painter to CB.

 

[dougdeep]

We could appeal.

 

[BensGrandad]

Wont Virgo get a 4 game ban as it stands and an unsuccesful appeal, which most are, means another game added. Most people think it was definite Red Card.

 

[goldstone]

Andy Whing was superb at CB the few times he filled in there.

 

[Perkino]

El-Abd at Centre back. well at least we will win some games next season

 

[Don Tmatter]

Hoyte's preferred position is CB, although i wouldn't want him there for us.

 

[CliveWalkerWingWizard]

Hoyte looks far too lightweight for CB - I think I would prefer Painter with El Abd LB, Painter reads the game well. A little concerned about lack of height. Not a lot of cover at CB without Tunni.
