Would sound even better especially if he scores or clears it with his head

Love Kitch.
Robins says he had to cut out strikers getting goal side of him for through balls.
Happened the last two games.
Needs to get his head in the game. Last statement for any Wrexham owners or USA fans.

“he and Bobby Thomas strike me as a sort of football equivalent of the Kray Twins. In short, and with every affection intended, exactly the pair of sh*thouses a team need at the back to try to get them promoted”

He’s still a very mid defender. Fans love “hard man” I guess though.

100% committed
Strong
Decent distribution (if a little optimistic at times!)

but…
Gets caught ball watching
Too often caught out by straight ball
Too often gets needlessly booked

The rest of our defence must be amazing then.

We've only conceded 3 goals since August. That's an average of 0.375 goals against per game. We've just broke our record by not conceding a goal for 613 minutes. We're on a run of 6 wins on the bounce. Best ever start to a season.

The reason Woolfenden is still warming the bench with a quarter of the season gone is how well Kitching and Thomas have been playing.

There isn't a player at our club that hasn't been a target on here for not being good enough. Even Grimes was supposed to only pass backwards and sideways and slow down our attacks.

What you have done is ignore all the good things a player has done and picked up on what happened against a side that plays with pace. Nobody has said he is brilliant or the best in the Championship. But he is a part of a very good defence and has kept Woolfenden out of the side.

You must be running out of players you say are not good enough.

Both Kitching and Thomas have improved beyond recognition since Grimes turned up...and that's not just a coincidence. Both still a bit iffy with distribution but the overall improvement is most welcome. I don't think big target men pose a threat to any of our central defenders.

Good to see Kevin Unitt still writing articles about us. I hope he's got a ST again or is getting down to games as last time I saw him he had given up his ST because of work & home committments

Thankfully a thick twat like yourself doesn’t pick the team, he’s been brilliant this season. You don’t even go the games anyway so you wouldn’t even know

Exactly. Kitching dishes out revenge too. Remember that stamp on Sakamoto last season v Blackburn. Was ruled as accidental, but it wasn't. Kitch put in a X-rated tackle (Dolin I think it was) a short while later.

I just don’t think he’s a very good defender. It’s not that deep. He does other stuff, but as a CB it’s his defending that concerns me.

He is easily good enough for the Championship. Our defensive record shows this.

Need to stop smoking you do, it’s destroying your ability to think like a normal human. We’re top of the league and just had 5 clean sheets in a row you clown

Cost us a goal too. Him and Thomas seem to have to bail each other out a lot. I’m not sure it’s the sign of a calm and in control back line tbh.

Also bailed Rushworth out, is he shite too?

Do you actually believe what you type or do you think it makes you edgy?

A defence as shaky as that wouldn’t have the best xG against stats in the league.

It helps that the ball comes nowhere near them most game. This is the Ben Wilson defence really.
