For those wondering, he just wasn't selected, no injury or anything.

Good because he wasn't selected or good because he wasn't injured?

I think he means good that he wasn't injured. I've been impressed with Jordan in these past 2 games though.

Gotta blame someone, its his turn to be scapegoat now, we've already had: Trotman, Thompson and Grimes. Everyones gonna get it sooner or later.

I never have scapegoats. He played well at the beginning of the season, but has not been the same since his injury and recently his performances have been average at best. Jordan played well at Huddersfield and with Coleman fielding a more attacking line up it made sense to drop him back to left back.

He is another who is out of contract in the summer. Should we offer him a new deal? Would he accept it? Will he join Thompson at Barnsley?

Thought Jordan had a really good game. IMHO a much better player than Widdowson, possibly doesn't give you as much of an attacking threat but thats fine by me - thats what we have midfield / wingers for. A defenders job is to errrrrr defend and thats exactly what Jordan did and did well.

Jordan reads the game better, had better position sense and was more reliable that Joe and I would definitely play him there again on Tuesday.

You need pace at full back really. Hope we see Widds back soon, decent player in my book.

I'm sorry or did i miss something?

How can he join Thompson at Barnsley, when he is still a rochdale player and will probably remain one.

As for Jordan, didn't feel confident in him at left back, the lack of pace was clear as day. hopefully we'll see joe back.

Thompson is out of contract at the end of the season and I fully expect him to join Barnsley.

Pace is the one assets that both Joe's have, but it requires more than just pace to make a player. I have seen many player over the years who are quick but have no end product or their decision making is not of the standard required.

If things continue along the same lines at Oakwell, I wouldn't be surprised to see their super-fickle chairman shuffle his managerial pack again.

He isn't noted for his patience and tolerance.

Joe really struggles to hold down a place at Rochdale who are struggling in league one, what makes you think he could play in the championship ? How long have we been waiting for JT to start making his mark, is it 3 or 4 seasons now.

I would suggest he his no nearer now than when he first started. One hard tackle and thats JT out for weeks on end. If those views make me a JT basher then i can live with that, say it has you see it !!

I wouldn't say that. Every Barnsley fan I see seems to love Hilly.

Widdowson is our best left back by a long way. He could be a top full back if he went forward more. He is a bit reluctant to do so but when he does he is our best crosser and very dangerous

We would be mad not to offer him a contract. Whether he accepts is another matter as he will be one of our few players other clubs will want. If he was left out today without being ill, injured etc. then there must have been a fall out. Jordan has nice touches but is slow, and not strong in the air. Would be a top player if he had Widdowson's pace but alas he has not.

Were you watching the same game as me? Jordan is woeful slow and weak in the tackle any problems they caused us came down our left flank. Joe and the new lad would be exciting partnership.

jordan is a more natural defender than widdowson however widdowson is better heading forward

keeping the goal count down has been one of jc's biggest improvements

Just my opinion like

I have a downer on Widdowson because he gets caught out of position so many times. I thought Jordan did well on Saturday

I thought he was poor on Saturday as per usual (Hudds aside) to slow, I'd fancy Firgrove Dale to beat Jordan over 10 yards.





Maybe I just fancy FirgroveDale anyway

I really like Widdowson (calm down not in that way) and I think he's been one of our most consistent performers. Jordan is a good player and I wish we could regularly fit him into the team somewhere but at full-back he simply doesn't have the pace required. All I'm going to say is, imagine he played instead of Widdowson against Sheff Wed, Antonio would have had time to have a leak and a read a novel before Jordan would have got anywhere near catching back up with him.

Jordan was easily beaten for pace by Ron Weasley to set up Oldhams 2nd goal - I dont think he wouldve got past Widdowson so easily - although being slow allowed Jordan to get a good kick in on him just after he crossed. Bonus!
