I am sorry but Labadie never once looked liked making it at a higher level, unless you mean in the Suarez stakes with bite

He was very inconsistent with Notts, which is the reason for his downfall but prior he certainly looked able to play higher and even in certain games with us he looked like a player who could progress further - yet it was his attitude and behaviour which cost him, perhaps even to a degree his work rate.

Perhaps @Elite_pie can offer a view. To me, he offered nothing, never any sign of offering anything and was not a ready made replacement for the loss of Bishop. @notts-joe, I believe Specsavers are open on Sunday

sorry Bennett wasn't good I rember the Oxford game at there place he got took to pieces all over the place.

And how holis has got a new deal is beyond belief becuase he's been just as bad if not worse.

For me we need two proper centre backs who won't be soft and do the basics of defending and don't switch off like our lot did last season.

I agree with the 'ready made replacement' comment, but disagree that he didn't have potential nor never played well. Did you go to the Doncaster (last game of the season) where he scored from the free kick? He played very well that day, him and Judge won us that game IMO - and not just because he scored.

Also, I recall how some ranted about us not missing Bishop because we had signed him.

I never agreed with the loss of Bishop, however most said he was passed it for us and was never good enough to play in the Championship but we are going off track.
