I'll be happy to see someone push Lochy for his spot, but he isnt the biggest concern at present

Havent gone back to the goals Bris got but from memory they came down the centre.

I have no problem with investigating Lochhead and the replacement of him. I just also mention that when he has been out injured and I specifically referred the period, the amount of angst and 'Welcome back Lochhy' on his first game back was phenomenal but everyone seems to forget that every time because it is one of the hardest positions to fill on a football pitch (and yet we struggle with others ironically).

Is the Hogg signing a potentially good one? Yes. Will it solve our problems? No because Locchy is not the problem right now, its our dysfunctional midfield. So pulling out a random stat justifying Lochhead out is all good and well but is has no subjectivity at all - just like the one I threw out. Talk about throwing anyone into that position is all good but the noted history of filling that position on any team in any league is one of the reasons why 'insert this person here' is not a justifiable argument. Luke Rowe got a crack and he was not up to it and he is the next cab off the rank on the roster.

The goals down the centre are Tony's fault and Clapham would have saved them :o)
