Completely laughable. The most natural replacement cover for an injured White, for me, is Atkinson by a mile.

He really is charming. He seems to really come to life when we concede and then is really in his element. I can't bear him but am stuck with it if I want to stay in the seat I've had for many years.

I mean, this is just laughable . Preston is a good player, but do you really think Preston could bomb it up and down the wing each game? He's not that fast and certainly not amazing with the ball at his feet.
No his feet aren't that great but then neither are White's and yes he is quick.
White is 1st or 2nd fastest at the club. Preston is no where near. Bottom 5 I would say. Can only imagine Pearce and maybe Bish would be slower over a decent sprint.
He's a decent no nonsense CB who gets stuck in, wins his headers and clear his lines... He's about as far from being a viable wing back as is possible. He has no pace, no grace or touch on the ball, he can't really pass and from some of his distribution lacks vision. He's a solid L2 CB, that's all...

The one negative for me is that he sometimes sits back too soon and in some instances that has cost us granted but the draws against Colchester and Cambridge where due to a shocking keeper error and a freakish deflection. If not for that we would already be 4th if we win our game in hand we will sit 5th.
We are playing better football than last season and listening to all interviews after Saturday it is clear the philosophy is to be more ruthless so hopefully we will push on from here.
Side point, yes Hamilton is playing out of position but if you think 1. He is doing a bad job or 2. Preston would be a better option then you are nothing short of deluded.

Is that the fella who always wears the lanyard? He loves shouting to Flitcroft 'Get them wound up'. Not even sure what that means to be honest.

Yes he’s the one. Lanyard man.

Is "Lanyard man" Alan?
If so I usually sit just behind him with my dad and son. Those who sit nearby, my dad is the guy who goes for 4, 5 or 6 nil every game with a player on the bench to score first. He also uses crutches. I'm the fat ginger guy. Say hello next time you see me.
