Bristol Boy Posted July 3, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2005 The reason we signed Smith is thathe the best r/b at the club (imo)←IMHO Carey's by far the best right back and, for reliability and height, I'd go for Coles in ftront of Smith.He's not a bad player now he's calmed down and stopped behaving like a lunatic, but with the other four right backs, I 'd rather strengthen elsewhere.

Maltshoveller Posted July 3, 2005 Report Share Posted July 3, 2005 Coles for me is a centre back onlyAs for CareyHis positional play is poorHis final ball He lacks paceand when it comes to a 50-50 tackle I'm sorry to slag carey off like this but he has to bethe most over rated player at this club.

GrahamC Posted July 3, 2005 Report Share Posted July 3, 2005 We probably resigned Jamie Smith because when Tinnion had his "night of the long knives" after the Chesterfield defeat, Smith was one of very few experienced pros we had then that he felt he could actually rely upon.The resigning of Carey has, in my opinon, made him if not exactly a luxury, then a back up player for next season, but I think that Tinnion didn't want to go back on his word to him about giving him another year.Still can't fathom why with Stewart, Brooker and Lita already competing for two places up front and Gillespie and Cotterill who could play there as well in the unlikely event of two of those being out, that we need another striker, who will only ever make the bench at best.Todays Sunday Independent says Coughlan's move to us will be resolved one way or the other tomorrow, and we still badly need a no.2 keeper, but to me I'd rather have a second left footed midfielder with some pace who could play wide left after that.
