We have Boco till the summer, ask Robney!

Thanks Willie, wasn't sure.

Yabba-dabba-doo to that!

Tretton played a blinder against Wigan pre-season while injured, Welchy signed till January

Tretton didn't play against Wigan. As far as I can remember he got injured after about 20 minutes against Burnley.

Tretton definately played the whole 90 against Wigan, i remember him goin down near the beginning aswel. anyway, may be wrong - dont realy care.
but i know he is one of if not the best centre half in the league so i cant wait till he plays

Sorry, SM, but I've just checked the team listing on the fishy site match report and he's not listed. Like you, I'm looking forward to his league debut with high expectations.

shakermaker · 10-12-2005, 00:24

ah well, stand corrected!
the only problem i have is that Tretton will with no doubt replace Welchy, who has made some brilliant performances - id love to see Welchy and Tretts' at centre half...doubt Rocky will get dropped though.

Distracted · 10-12-2005, 09:36

I agree Welchy doesn't deserve to be dropped he's been playing brilliantly and who's to say that Tretts is better than him anyway? I think the 2 of them at the back would be our best pairing but as you say Rocky would never be dropped.

another clean sheet yesterday i say leave it as it is at the moment!

zayno14 · 11-12-2005, 12:59

if it aint broke don't fix it

Whalley Red · 11-12-2005, 13:07

As a critic of Rocky in the past, when I still say that he deserved it, his performances when partnered with Welch have been virtually faultless. He had problems with his ball control on a couple of occasions yesterday, but what an 'assist' it would hae been if his bicycle kick had led to the second goal!

Whalley Red · 20-12-2005, 23:04

Wigan are apparently just about to Austrian international centre-back Paul Scharner. His club have agreed a price, so it is a matter of agreeing personal terms.

With Edwards likely to be knocked further down the pecking order at Wigan as a result, maybe Coley's ambitious plan could be one step closer to fruition

zayno14 · 21-12-2005, 09:15

do you think wigan will play him as a centre back though? I know its is his favoured position but he looks as comfortable at left back and with his size wigan may have taken note?

sparkie · 21-12-2005, 10:33

I heard in the sports bar on saturday that he definately wants to stay, at least for the rest of the season.

IrishRed · 21-12-2005, 12:37

personally id prefer to see coley sign a prolific goal scorer as mullin and brown dont seem to be scoring much

harwood red · 21-12-2005, 12:40

The beauty is that we are able to get goals from various people on the pitch and mullin acts very well as the target man whilst deflecting the pressure off alot of the midfield, hence more goals coming from that area!
