Burge has won us plenty of games this season. Doesn't deserve the stick.

He wasn't punching earlier in the season and was flapping.

Seems like Oggy has been working with him on that. He's dropped a few easy catches this season, so nice to see him punching the ball away and looking a lot more assured as a result.

Played well over both legs. If he played better on a regular basis he would be playing higher up the pyramid. I don’t really know what people expect of a league one/two goal keeper but they rarely get much better than Burge unless they’ve just came down from the championship.

a few weeks ago there was a thread on here where we all took the piss outta Burge.

Sorry bud, you’ve played a crucial part in the playoffs so far.
Wait till we get promoted

As proud as i am of burge tonight we all know he capable of scoring 8 own goals in a playoff final loss

Never thought I would say this but he was outstanding tonight. His shot stopping has never rely been in question but he commanded his area and punched threw anything that came near him.

I think most have had their moments slating Burge, probably with reason ‘but he was brilliant tonight
Looked very assured and confident, wouldn’t have looked out of place a couple of leagues above.

Nobody has denied that he makes good saves. But you also can't deny that he doesn't normally command his area, is poor at dealing with crosses and makes bad decisions on if he should go for a ball or not.

But last night was easily one of his best games. He didn't have a lot to do. But he did it well. Fair play to him.

If he could keep it up I would be happy for him to stay as our No.1

But who thinks he could?

I slated Burge a couple of weeks ago but I am big enough to say he was fantastic last night proving he can concentrate sometimes...i am still buzzing

Burge played well tonight - for a change
You are obviously someone who has never played football at any level and at school, got stick for being so bad. For this reason, you decide to attack people deemed good enough to earn their living playing football.

To be fair, he had a great game last night. Some great saves.

But also to be fair, he cost us points in the season.

Agree with sw88, we still need to invest in the GK area next season, regardless of division.
