Let’s face it though, a lot of those clean sheets Wilson had nothing to do, it was the defence that was rock solid that helped it

Problem with our keepers are they make a couple of mistakes( don’t know any keeper that doesn’t ) and we slaughter them, dovin hasn’t done anything that bad and some fans jumping on him already if any of them made the mistake the Leeds keeper did against Sunderland we’d Have him transferred the next day, dovins fine, good keeper,

Anyway appears the GDPR is out of the way as he'll be back in around two weeks,as it's knee ligaments, which really questions why he remained on the pitch,no?
Robin's talking very much like he's No1 I thought! Sorry Wilson will!

Set piece coaches are the ones who need questions asking. We have no corner routines bar bang it in to the middle and hope someone gets it. Defending corners were utterly woeful

Can see why he rested him, young keeper in a team thats struggling a bit, prob took him out the firing line, came back in and did alright, might be a slight question on the QPR goal but I’ve seen far better keepers than him do a lot worse,

Simon Moore - ruined him
Ben Wilson - hasn't exactly improved him
Brad Collins - hadnt exactly improved him
Oliver Dovin - looks a scared wreck

4 keepers of a decent level, all end up bereft of confidence and talent


And the defence. Well. We all know how dog shit that is and he's responsible for that nowadays too

Bloks stealing a living and how he's never been put under review i don't know
Click to expand...
Remember people were slagging off Oggy before him.

I wouldn't say he ruined Simon Moore, he had off field problems.

Wilson and Collins I don't think are that good. Although Wilson is the better of the two, mainly because his personality pulls him through.

Dovin has just arrived and is only 22 FFS give him a chance.

Not saying Williams is a great coach, but what badges do you have out of interest?

There isn’t a hierarchy. There’s a flat coaching staff with individual responsibilities, so John Dempster will do some set-play work, as will Aled.

I believe John Dempster oversees set pieces. I’m sure one of the players referenced it in a recent interview.

I know we let 2 in, but I really hope that save at the end gives Dovin some confidence. He's young, and that will help tremendously. Distribution was really good today, now need him to drag a clean sheet out from somewhere and then hopefully he can kick on.

You mean like every goalkeeper that keeps a lot of clean sheets? They have a good defence in front of them surprise?

The fact is in those games when we kept clean sheets, Wilson often made good saves to stop the opposition from equalising, or saves to keep us in the game.

He played his part.

2 key takeaways from that article

Dr Roberts further explained: “George and Rhys were brought in to replace the vacant position left by Dennis (Lawrence). Mark (Robins) and I interviewed a strong pool of candidates and both offered different strengths, so we created roles for both.”

The reality is, however, that Robins has been under-staffed for years and is only now playing catch-up with other Championship and elite clubs – all of whom have extensively populated backrooms with all the necessary support staff.

Robins had a hand in the recruitment and the positions are necessary.

Oggy lol.

I’m sorry, club legend but him and Clive HAVE to go. They got Wright mixed up with Sheaf the other night. They love a jinx too! They’re just awful to listen to, I’m sorry.

Oggy was a great servant, let’s leave it there.

I agree though, Aled’s CV doesn’t look good…

I say what I say on twitter...

How can you actually blame the goalkeeping coach? Do we actually know what he does on the training pitch? I mean, how can you quantify if he has improved goalkeepers?

Once you cross that white line it's you and you only.

Surely if he can train them atleast 1 thing it’s they are allowed out the 6yrd box! Imagine if we actually use a gk as a player n not just someone to make up the 11.

Not just about Collins. We have not improved any keeper over the long term of them being here apart from maybe Wilson’s Glove year.

Not sure we improved him, 9 of 11 players were camped in our own box to protect him, lucky we had Hamer and Gyokeres to do the business at the other end.

Marosi was fine, he just got injured and Wilson made himself undroppable at the time

Moore was okay for a season, he was never going to 'improve' per se, he was in his peak years

Wilson himself has turned into a bit part player in the lower leagues to a player I would be comfortable with us playing in The Championship

We can't still be peddling that narrative surely

Wilson isn't perfect and yes our defence in the play-off final season was considerably better but you still have to be good in your own right to win the Golden Glove

He is twice the goalie than what we have in at the moment

But it’s the fact that all of them have regressed look at Moore, of course he was going to regress but he dropped off a cliff and we never got him anywhere near back.

Same with Marosi when he came back with his head guard, now with Collins and latest is Dovin who when he played for Sweden looked absolutely bereft of confidence.

There’s a pattern there and questions should be asked
