We should have signed Phil Ifil when we had the chance then that wouldn`t even be a question.

If you call getting £10000 a week for playing 60 matches in the time he has been with us, two thirds of which he either looked like he couldn`t be bothered or simply wasn`t capable, getting shafted then I think all of us on here would willfully take a good shafting ! Lee Holmes does give balance to the left side as he is naturally left footed but my point is I don`t know how long you can expect to last as a wide man in the english game if you have neither the ability to beat a man and/or a good change of pace. And Holmes can`t cross as well as Rudi either.

What an utter waste of money you have been Rudi. A winger without pace or skill and we paid £1.6m for you and gave you £10000 a week wages ! How did you ever score 16 goals in the Scotish Premier League that last season you were there !?!? We must be thankful for small mercies though and you have played well at left back this season. Saying that you have got some cheek being asked to be left out of the team when we have got so little end product from you for the sizeable outlay we made. He has made 60 starts for Saints, approx 40 in his favoured left wing position, which I think can definitely be classed as having been given a fair chance. He did play regularly 33 times in his first season and 16 games this season, the latter of which have been much better at left back . But don`t worry as for all you Rudi lovers out there we have a ready made replacement left winger who has no pace and skill either in Lee Holmes.

Genuinely seemed a nice guy but lost my support when the players were allowed to have two days off after the Doncaster mess. I won`t miss his decisions to keep playing fat boy Holmes on the left wing either ahead of players who actually do have some skill and pace. Now I have said that you know Wotte will play him Tuesday !!!! Sorry everyone.

Everyone seems to be struggling for a right back but what about Phil Ifil who played for us for a bit last season. He looked real quality. We should have signed him but instead we let Colchester get him and his career went the same way as them ! They want to get rid of him now, we should get him back seeing as the club don`t actually have a right back !

Harmony has only broken out as they have been going at it hammer and tongs over on the Echo forum all afternoon !!!
