One thing in Lynch's favour is that he is a defender.
Not letting the truth get in the way of a good theory, I shall say:-
Albion defenders move up divisions.
Albion forwards move down.
Sorry Rusty, but just because something is written on a message board, it doesn't make it true.
Suggested or otherwise.
If the player isn't good enough, why is he likely to be going up a division?.
Time will tell.
But in the meantime, best leave the speculation to one side.
