A Centre Back Jig-Saw

PSR

It seems like a bit of a Jig-Saw but let's try to work it out.

Tony Pullis (Stoke) has already loaned the Blunts one of his Centre Backs (Andrew Davies) and is now loathed to let Leon Cort to go out for obvious reasons.

Danny Sh!ttu is also set to join the Blunts on loan sometime this week and this has come about because Matthew Kilgallon has so far refused to sign an extension to his ex sisting contract so it now looks like the Blunts maybe prepared to release Kilgallon (on loan) with a pre-arranged permanent move.

Would we be interested? - is Kilgallon the type of centre back we are looking for and would he do us a good job?

Height 6.01

Kilgallon will go to a Premiership club, I have heard Spuds are potentially interested in signing him when he is available on a free...

I wonder if we actually have targeted a centre back or just biding our time till they are all fit...

A weapon of mass incompetence?

Seriously though, if Wilson can get himself focused, fit and prepared to concentrate for 90 minutes he has the potential to be the best centre-back in our current squad.

Can't see it happening. Why would Blunts want to strengthen our side until January?
Even if Kilgallon wants to move they might as well keep him as long as possible unless he plays hardball and does a PVH

Kilgallon will stay at Sheff Utd unless a bigger club come in for him. He's a fan favourite up there and is a very good defender. If he moves on it will be to the premiership or Newcastle/Boro/WBA.

A friend of a friend knows his dad and was told that Newcastle made a bid for him which Sheff Utd notified him about and told him they were going to reject it back before the transfer window closed.

He would never come here as he has nothing to gain from it unless we were pushing for promotion.

Wilson will most likely play tonight and it'll be his first appearance of the season, how many times have we seen an awful player improve over he off season (or go the other way)? He will almost certainly not have a great game tonight against top flight strikers in his first game back from injury but lets give him a chance and not write the match report concerning him before the match has been played.

Last season in a pre-season friendly against Everton he was awesome, almost unbeatable so with a bit of backing he might reproduce this and some of the form he showed in League One. He can be frustrating because he seems a bit casual at time but as far as centre backs go he's quite classy, can control, pass and run with a ball. One of the criticisms of the defence recently has been lumping it out of defence all the time so he might help improve us in this aspect of the game.

I really hope he plays and plays well tonight as he can still have a big role for us this year, especially as we have yet to bring in anymore defensive cover.

EDIT: Forgot to add hasn't Shittu already rejected a loan move to Sheff Utd as he doesn't want to drop down a level?

And PSR, why do you write it "Sh!ttu"? Just turn your swear filter off, things like that stop people getting on certain threads because of work swear filters that pick up on common workarounds for swearwords whereas if they leave their swear filter on they don't have problems. I used to have this problem in a previous job.

Seriously though good shout PSR.

Killgallon is an excellent defender, miles better than Mills.

I just want to stress before it potentially escalates I wasn't having a go at PSR just offering friendly advice, nor was I trying to be king of the forum.

There was something disturbing about it.

Anyway the avatar you have now is good but Wotton has already had that one (or one quite similiar to that one).
