And Kyle McFadzean ?Am I right in thinking Dennis Lawrence does the defensive coaching? Since we moved up to the Championship, that's one area of the team that just clicks nicely into place after a few months of the season. And hopefully, if we have a fairly settled back line for the next few years, we'll become virtually impenetrable.
And Kyle McFadzean ?
I do know a senior player does get involved at times on the training field with youngsters so who knows.Hopefully. Would love their to be a role at the clubfor him when he finished playing, been a great servant.
Is that the same Bobby Thomas that was ridiculed and rubbished when we first signed him by a lot of our resident “experts”on here and the same Liam Kitching that we “spunked” over 4.5 million quid on.The defensive partnership of Kitching and Thomas is superb
Thomas is like your all action , tough tackling , no nonsense type
Where as Kitching is like a Rolls Royce , very rarely goes to ground but just steps in and takes the ball
They compliment each other perfectly and clearly have a chemistry between them
What call him a Rolls Royce and it will be so?The Bidwell effect
It's actually 6 not 5 cleansheets since Fads dropped out and we went to a back 4.4th lowest goals conceded and joint 2nd highest number of clean sheets (9), 5 of which have come since previous lynchpin McFadz was left out of the starting line up. Our defensive coaching is excellent.

Yeah me too, well both of them. Kitching in the Sunderland game had a number of iffy mistakes.Thomas still scared me at least twice a game got to be honest.
Agree a bit, how that scramble before our second goal didn’t go inAlso we’ve been very lucky
Of 7 big chances in the last 2 games only 1 has been on target
And yes I’m taking the piss
The Bidwell effect
@PVA do you have the stats to confirm this?
Who do you think should be our first choice left back?
It's actually 6 not 5 cleansheets since Fads dropped out and we went to a back 4.
Stoke, Millwall, Plymouth, Birmingham, Sunderland, Sheff Wed.
Since we have gone to a back 4:
Played 9
Conceded 4 goals
Kept 6 clean sheets (66%)
P9 W5 D3 L1 F14 A4 GD +10, PTS 18 PPG 2 WIN % 56%
The previously 15 league games with wingbacks and Fadz
P15 W4 D6 L6 F19 A21 GD -2, PTS 18 PPG 1.2 WIN % 27%

No it's just a hunch.Have you got any stats to back this up?

Bidwell was always a good player from the time he signed but was another player not received well on here by our “experts”.
Bang on. He's looked better this season.Good as in “solid”. Attacking output has gone miles up this season. The whole premise of 3ATB was that the wing backs were meant to offer an attacking outlet. They very rarely did, and it turns out it wasn’t due to inability to do so.
Mason debate again, think he's gone out the game?Good as in “solid”. Attacking output has gone miles up this season. The whole premise of 3ATB was that the wing backs were meant to offer an attacking outlet. They very rarely did, and it turns out it wasn’t due to inability to do so.
Don't think I did, did I? I mentioned Fadz and the back 4, I don't think I mentioned Bidwell, in my stats post.Harsh on the others to give all the credit to Bidwell
Reverse Stuart Pearce, he's at WealdstoneMason debate again, think he's gone out the game?
