So if the back four have a mare and we get hammered on Saturday will the Oxford Mail run the headline "Moore Long Dickie Ruffels Eastwood"? Gets coat and heads for door ?

All we need now is Jake Wright to add a bit of height to the back line....
My work here is done.
Can anyone comment on how he’s done since coming into the side? Does he look good, promising, etc. I’ve not been to any of the games he’s started.
Agree with that. It is concerning that he has lost out on crucial headers he should have won. He also seems a bit slow to react at times. Very important that he improves.He looks promising but not the finished article. On Saturday he was beaten in the air for Bristol's second goal by a striker that was good few inches shorter than him, and yesterday he was beaten in the air in the build up to their second goal (although that was against Tom Elliot so I will cut him some slack). I also think he may have let his man get across him too easily for their second goal last night although I haven't seen it back yet so not 100% sure.
He's heavier footed than Dickie so not as adept as bringing the ball out, but he looks fairly comfortable with the ball at his feet and his happy to knock it about.
I think I'd like to see him be more aggressive when attacking the ball as, with his size, he could be a very dominant CB.
