We've never replaced Whittaker. Graham Shinnie would fit the bill nicely.

Keith Watson from united is decent. See he's been on the bench recently so may be available.

Why didn't we sign one in the window, or does Boateng play there?

Plays right back a lot for ICT despite being a left back by trade. If we were to sign him I would play him on the left though.

He had a great game against us last time out at right back.

What about Dave Mackay at St. Johnstone? No idea how highly thought of he is or his contract situation, but he's always struck me as pretty good.

Boateng does play at R/B also C/B and as a D/M

Guys a right back was signed during the window, that player is Boateng, lets see what he can do first there before calling for another one!

Forster isn't a right back. Centre back is his position:agree:

He's only here till the end of the season.

Yeah, He's capable of playing RB, but signing him to play at RB would be no different to the Lewis Stevenson situation under Fenlon, I'd hope that when Butcher starts to make the team his own in the summer, he will sign players and play them in their strongest position.

Versatility is great in a player, but should only be used as a stop gap when the squad struggles with injury or suspension.

Any idea why he wasn't playing yesterday?

Papers/clearance?

Injured?

Cheers. Should have known really. Wonder why TB didn't play him.

Did you watch him and how many goals were leaked while he played centre half?! He was a bombscare there IMO, never ever a centre half. Looks much better at right back.

He's only young, he will make mistakes and learn from them. He's played at centre back and looked decent some of the time. He's said himself that's his preffered position. IMO he isn't a right back and is only playing there as a short term solution until we bring in a proper right back in summer... Hopefully.

I remember (during a pre-season friendly at ER) Yogi pointing at MR and clearly being heard shouting to the east stand "HE'S GOT GINGER BAWS!". Scrotum observing folk ken whit's gaun oan (although we probably could have worked it out for ourselves using the "collars and cuffs" hypothesis).
