Danny Gabbidon or Roger Johnson

Fri Jul 13, 2012 1:02 pm

Both are fans favourites but with one would you have back ?

Roger is know 29 and when he left us he went from a hero at Birmingham City to a horror show at Wolves but I think the most important thing is to remember that he was one of our best player, and never really got settled at Wolves ! He is still 6ft 3in tall and if he where to come back and hit the long term form he had with us in the past then I could see him starting over Hudson any day, even though Hudson did do well last year !

Danny Gabbidon well what a career he's had we all remember him from his 6 years a City and has always wanted to come back ! Standing at 5ft 10in tall and losing his pace I don't think he could keep up with the tough phyical battle of the Championship and I think that is way Malky is bringing in young players ! Me, I think he is past it know :( but will always be a fans favourite !

I would take Gabbs as a back up for center half and left back. He has bags of experience and seems to be over his injuries now. He could be valuable to step in for injuries and his attitude would fit in well with Malkies squad.

Johnson is now the better player but has a real attitude problem which was highlighted at the end of his time with us, at Brum and Wolves where he upset virtually everyone at the club, manager, players, staff and fans !! He wouldn't fit in with Malkies "all for one" philosophy and therefore we shouldn't touch him with a barge pole :lol:

Neither, thanks.

Both were quality players, in their day, but their day has gone.

It's not about his age.

Do you think he'd be an asset to the current team, or a hindrance? I'm talking about on and off the pitch, as they both matter, as proven before with CCFC, particularly the season prior to Malky arriving.

Mate, if he's reformed, I'd take him back now. I thought he was a superb player for us.
