simon lappin?

any one have an idea of how long he is on loan with us for??

lappin was on the bench v pboro sat and when kev was subbed we brought gunnarsson on at full back, when we really needed gunnar to come into the middle in my opinion for cowie who was having a stinker.... mutch was not the answer in my opinion and looked slow and lazy..

i didnt see lappins performance in the game he got 2 yellows, but some say he was hard done by, others, say it was unfair.... some say he was not that good...

hudson will be back this week, so connolly will go back to right back... therefore does that mean that kev will go back to the bench taking lappins place or will kev not make the squad??

i know we only brought lappin in as cover, but if he cant even make the squad, whats the point??

Lappin was brought in as cover when Taylor got injured against Boro for our match at Barnsley, which he helped us win!

He would have played the next match as well, but couldn't as he got suspended for 2 yellows and Ralls had to come back in at left back for the trip to Derby!

Whilst McNaughton can cover both full back positions, after his performance last Saturday where he couldn't even pass with his right foot, I think Lappin is good cover at left back and as he played his part in earning us 3 points at Barnsley, then I believe that he has already earned his money! :ayatollah:
