Rate would be putting it a bit strongly. Neither have been close to good enough.

Strange one, I’d put Wilson in front of Collins ? all keepers make mistakes, just our fans seem to bury ours when they do,

They do, but Collins was conceding nearly every shot on goal this season.

In my honest opinion Wilson would not be great behind our current back four . He's never been a commanding goalkeeper and his distribution is absolutely woeful

thats why I’d put Wilson in front, TBF even dovin wasn’t great at the start, he’s been playing with a better back 4.
so he’s had less to do, bit like when Wilson won the golden glove and some fans were saying it’s only because of the way we defended, Wilson would cover dovin and be ok, look at their keeper for our goal tonight ? They all make mistakes

Dovin has made multiple superb saves since returning to the side.

I hope so, the next match is a tough one, (Burnley) but after that we should get enough points to finish in the top 6.

And so would Wilson, you don’t go from golden glove winner to shit keeper but looks like it’ll be Collins and that’s worrying, not digging him out but Wilson’s better ?

Above all else, you have to be brave as a keeper. That's not a trait of either of our back keepers, Collins especially.

I wasn’t suggesting we don’t back whoever goes in goal, but the drop off from Dovin is huge. Just look at all the goals Collins has conceded this season. Nearly every one of them was comical.

Hopefully with Kitching back and Sheaf alongside Grimes there will be more cover in front of them

Mate it was an incredible ride , Robins utilised Vik and Gus to the maximum and got the rest of the squad to support them . For me Fadz was the lynchpin to that

Yeah, I’d put Wilson in front of him but Lampard must see something in Collins ? Thought Collins confidence was gone, you could see it, think Wilson’s got a bit more about him to come back from a mistake ?

Whole team defended together, but when Wilson was needed he was there, and he’s allowed a bit after the Blackburn game, we wouldn’t of made the play offs without that

You say, going over old ground.

He was well protected, but also more or less faultless for the majority of that season.

But the point is valid; this is not a solid formation, and only a very good goalkeeper would prosper in it.

Went off on a stretcher and Lampard confirmed it’s a bad one. Probably season ending.

Let's be honest we were very well beaten, we were miles off them. Hamer was key to both the first two goals.

Our front three were not good.
