Karl Pilkington 0 Posted October 24, 2003 I have seen a lot of criticism on these boards regarding Mr Rivers, some of it fair some of it not. There has also been some praise for the manor in which edworthy has come and slotted in at Right Back. Not only is he good at defending his runs and passing will help create many chances and is more of an attacking right back.But I do feel sorry for Briggs who also looked good at Right back towards the end of last season and pre-season.So Why not put Edworthy on the right Wing and Briggs at Right back. We would then have a winger who can pass and put in a decent cross, but who can also chase back and defend.Any Comments??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
a1canary 0 Posted October 24, 2003 excellent suggestion - certainly one that worthy should have up his sleave once harper''s gone back and rivers is injured again! has the guy ever been in the side for more than 6 weeks?!?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Graham Paddons Beard 2,424 Posted January 9, 2014 Actually I was a big fan of Edders, even though he was ridiculously hairy. Briggs less so. Amazing what we were talking about in 2003! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Syteanric 1 Posted January 9, 2014 Eddy was what a defender should be. Reliable, professional and solid Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Great Mass Debater 1,078 Posted January 10, 2014 Edworthy was a great rightback, very underrated. We struggled to replace him for a very long time... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ZLF 271 Posted January 10, 2014 eddy was a great championship right back, particularly great at getting forward, but prem football horrendously exposed his positional and defensive discipline. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[/quote]Spot on ZLF.Being honest I''ve never fully understood the Eddy love in on the board, he was a competent and dedicated player no doubt, but he was never a top talent worthy of such adoration IMHO.

Tim Allman 1 Posted January 10, 2014 I think Marc Edworthy’s last appearance at Carrow Road was for Derby in that terrible Stephen “cheating ****” Bywater 1-2 loss to Derby. I’m still annoyed about it now over nearly seven years later!From memory ME wasn’t great, got booked for a terrible tackle on Chris Martin and was subbed off either after 45 minutes or early in the second half.
