Yes I did and only him and Stokes were struggling with it.

A fair few more were, their striker scuffed a shot because of it. Simple 5 yard passes bobbled because of it.

Agreed. Not sure how the worst goalkeeper in the league can be part of the best defence in the league

I think some just have out for him regardless

JCH was very highly rated and a prolific scorer in our academy. Any attitude issues will be sorted as soon as he is locked in a room with Robins & Doyle!! Those two are not to be messed with....

I haven't seen a City team be so aggressive and committed to win the ball as of late, definitely Doyle's influence. He demands and motivates our players, brilliant (and bloody aggressive!) Captain.

Either way - if JCH signs, give him some love after all 'He's one of our own....!'

To be fair I couldn't name a worse keeper in the league than him either. Or a better one. I can't even tell you half of the teams in our league.

Did you see Petr Cech's mistake last night? A Premier league goalkeeper on £100k a week and 124 International caps.

But yeah that guy in league Two is rubbish because he kicks a few balls out of play every week.
Click to expand...
Yep saw that mistake by Petr and it was woeful.
However one mistake in one game compared to the same keeper making the same mistakes in each game and he has not improved in that department since he has been with the club.
He is a good shot stopper sometimes but the bottom line is he isn’t good enough even at our level.
We won’t replace him as we wouldn’t waste money on a keeper so we just promote from the youth team and keep our fingers crossed seems to be the policy.

Johnson Clarke-Harris is a gobshite. I remember him giving it large in front of us when he scored the winner at the Ricoh a while back.

I've supported and sang the name of gobshites before though, so if he's chosen to join us then good luck to him.

I'm afraid hes the worst keeper I seen.
Makes the odd very good save. but I'm afraid your only as good as your weakest attribute(if you can call his kicking an attribute)

Really? I don’t rate Burge very highly either but to say he’s not good enough for L2 when he’s part of the best defence is ridiculous

Anyway there’s a thread for the Burge debate

Paris Saint Germain, Ajax, Barcelona and Melchester Rovers to name four. Some joker recons Accrington Stanley but that’s just bollocks. They’re a fictitious team invented by Kenny Dagleash to scare kids into drinking milk. You’d have to get up pretty early in the morning to catch me out

What a bizarre way of judging players.

That Messi lad is rubbish because he's not very good in the air. Lukaku is terrible because he has a poor first touch.
