Burge was hopeless and I thought I would never see a worse keeper play for us. Collins seems to be doing his best to surpass him.There is certainly a Burge Mk II vibe about him.
So as a teacher if your pupils kept coming last at school and failed their exams who would be to blame ?
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.
What specifically about the GK coaching are we getting wrong?Why do we keep given passes to people whose remit is literally in their job titles?

They're all shit
A caller after the match asked Oggy what our goalkeeping coach was doing , as our keepers have been so poor ,noticed Oggy dodged the question.Burge was hopeless and I thought I would never see a worse keeper play for us. Collins seems to be doing his best to surpass him.
Definitely would not be unhappy with a change in goalkeeping coach but is it that simple. I'm not sure a coach can be so bad at his job he can actually make players worse to the extent we have seen with Moore and Collins.
It feels like something else has happened but fuck knows what as for it to happen to one keeper is unusual. For it to happen to two at the same club in quick succession is pretty much unheard of.
Is he coaching JDS and Sakamoto? Both are so predictable, one dimensional and weak. Is he coaching Sheaf in every game to make a terrible pass which immediately over loads our defenders?
Agreed - of course, you have be made of certain "stuff" to want to be a keeper, like throwing yourself around and having footballs kicked at you very hard, and there will always be good shots, unlucky deflections and defenders going AWOL that you can't do much about, but there are things all of our keepers in recent years have been singularly incapable of improving upon. GK basics like:-We're talking about the keepers.
It's been a problematic position for a while and he's the coach.
Don't disagree with your comments about the other 3.
Any news on when we can expect a decent defensive coach to replace this clown?
How do you know he's a decent defensive coach?Ashley Cole would be nice

It’s the last refuge of fans who have run out of things to criticise now that different players and different managers have failed to turn things around.Let's face it hardly anybody on here knows whether any of our coaches are any good or not.
One, they know nothing about coaching and two they have never seen them coach. Their theories are based on pub talk.

Do we know for sure he’s the defence coach?Or you can look at the facts
Since Aled Williams has become defence coach, we have kept 5 clean sheets in 48 games
I just want to deal in facts - which coach is responsible for which facet of play? Is Williams solely in charge of all our defensive work? Or does he just work with the defenders? Does he tell Lampard how our team should defend? How is his coaching style different from Dennis Lawrence’s? What part of his coaching regimen is failing?Silly take on this one tbh, though on brand for you. Dennis Lawrence was a high profile and clearly effective coach and the defensive organisation and results have clearly got worse since he left.

I’d be genuinely interested to learn the answers to these questions (I assume you can enlighten me). Otherwise it’s just angry fans shouting at a black box.

Having a specific 'defensive coach' is only a recent thing in football generally, the whole team is responsible for defending and the manager / head coach should be thinking about how not to leave us so exposed for eg Norwich's second goal. I'm not sure it can be put down solely to Williams to be honest.Or you can look at the facts

Allen hadn't played for months and we were struggling to put 2 passes together. I couldn't believe he never bought a sub on on 90 mins. Torp for Allen, slow the game down and stick some tackles inHaving a specific 'defensive coach' is only a recent thing in football generally, the whole team is responsible for defending and the manager / head coach should be thinking about how not to leave us so exposed for eg Norwich's second goal.

I find it hard to believe that Aled Williams - or Dennis Lawrence, for that matter - is responsible for our defensive organisation. Surely it's down to the manager/head coach?Fair. We’re treating Saddle as gospel again.
But I think it’s unfair to say people are picking up on coaching as a last resort. The fall off in our defensive organisation is plain to see and has been for a while with all the managers this season.
