Coach
This is from an Iron fan on another board. Hopefully we can exploit this shortfall in Centre backs. Please drop a few free kicks on the penalty spot on Tuesday night boys!

Have just read on our OS that Byrne and Mirfin will miss Southend then be available for Leeds, and there is no mention of Wright being suspended so it must have been just his 4th booking, not his 5th.
So, we will have Wrighty available to play left back on Tuesday, and personally I think Garry Thompson would make a good stand in at right back (ironnick may remember that he had one of his best games there covering when Mirf got sent off at Walsall). The main problem is our lack of centrebacks. We now have both Mirf and Cliff suspended, whilst Milne and Pearce are injured. In my book that leaves us Crosby and Picton - a geriatric and a 2nd year YT. Talk about a mixture of youth and experience!
I can't wait to see the team we put out now. Are you making the trip or not nick?
