Curtains Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Bucko's doing brilliantly to say that he is carrying a lot of excess weight - all these so-called 'top' strikers that are lodged safely in his pocket. Bucko is playing through the pain barrier how often is Keogh injured. Answer Keogh is always ever present and fit. When Keogh was out injured last season Bucko looked lost lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YorkshireRam Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 question for you which side of the defence does Bucko play. Which side does Whibread play and now Shotton where does he fit in . I think Shotton will play at centre half alongside Bucko. I doubt Christie would be dropped because he's put in some great performances recently.

cosmic Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 I don't know, it took Eto'o a couple of weeks to find himself a way to get out of Buxton's back pocket. I would also argue that pace doesn't necessarily mean that you're better suited to the Premier League. Buxton's aerial dominance, passing and positioning would stand him in better stead than Keogh's ability to correct mistakes. In truth, if promoted, I would want two new centre-backs. However, I would be happy for Buxton to play a fairly big part. Keogh, not so much. As I've said, I don't think either need replacing and I'm happy. I would laugh Keogh out of the room if he came wanting big wage demands - He's a player that I really wouldn't want us to break the bank to keep. Can't argue with your Eto'o example. And yes, I think neither have their position cemented if/when we go up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derbydave96 Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Drop keogh all day long, bucko is the better player and Keogh has looked shaky long before the Wembley incident, which I agree wasn't entirely his fault. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't want that at any price. Neither would I want Bucko to leave he's just signed a new contract.

Curtains Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Dropping Keogh doesn't mean he would leave the club Dropping Keogh would most likely mean he wouldn't sign a new contract . Other teams would snap him up I have no doubt. He was a very good signing by Clough as was Buxton who I was wrong about. Keogh is our Captain and will play tonight Some fans should get off his back he's more of a scapegoat than Dawkins ever is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Scarlet Pimpernel Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 They both compliment each other. Keogh is the dominant personality on the pitch which seems to help Bucko. My gut feeling is that Keogh could still organise and "captain" Shotton but I'm not sure Bucko would.(If you see what I mean ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curtains Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 I wouldn't be too fussed if Keogh left... That's just what I mean . It's ridiculous what some fans are doing to Keogh and I'm not blaming you a poll on here made him number 1 scapegoat. They have a go at his interview technique but that has nothing to do with his football or captaincy Every misplaced pass is jumped on etc etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cosmic Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 What would dropping your captain do to a team and its morale? Everyone talks about our team spirit, I assume Keogh is a major part in keeping this group together in the dressing room/training pitch. Can anyone think of any examples of other managers dropping a captain in the past? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was responsible for Charlton's 2nd and 3rd goals. Those kind of mistakes cost us points and he seems to make these mistakes far too often.

Dimmu Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Do I have to pick just one? They play so well as pair that if another drops out I'd be tempted to change both... New star CB - Whitbread (I know I'm pretty much only one who really likes him) to start. But if it's choice between Keogh or Bucko, it's relatively easy decision. Bucko is far, far better than our captain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
