Yeah and he does that job far better than Moore at the moment, regardless of how many times he kicks it out of play.

Generally speaking teams play better when they’re not hoofing it into touch

”official” mom. was interviewed after the match in the lounges, about 6pm. Interestingly he said that Yok was still in the changing room very angry about not scoring Apparently they’re good mates, and Yok had said before the match, any pens, I’m taking them. Wilson wound him up at half time about godden taking it

If Gyo wants to take them maybe he should score them at a better rate

Well, Godden scored yesterday, so I guess you could say it was a perfect pen, but I don’t think it was a great one.

Doubling down rather than admit you're wrong, I'd normally respect that kind of conviction in your beliefs but this smacks of desperation to believe your own ramblings. He's performing well above the standards set previously and hard to believe you're a fan or go to games if you're criticising yesterday's performance and not giving credit where due.

I don’t think Godden has missed one for us yet?

Westwood made some brilliant saves, especially from 1 on 1's. Still the best keeper we've had since relegation.

Wilson bad a good game today, although his kicking is still a worry.

I watched the replay back and yeah I thought to myself Westwood was far more entertaining.

Westwood was the best keeper we’ve had at the Ricoh.

Wilson is just a constant worry for me, very shaky keeper

Highfield road, Cov against Norwich, score 5-4 with a penalty too Norwich, last kick of the game and Jim Blyth saves the pen.

That was the craziest game ever. I recall there were three goals disallowed as well. Blyth best keeper since Jimmy Hill left.

I seriously don’t get the love in for Westwood.

He had an outstanding first season and was then just ok for the rest of his time here.

He played ok yesterday, however I would expect him to make that save. The header wasn't particularly powerful and was pretty close to him imo.

It's one you'd probably expect him to get a hand to but required a really strong wrist to keep it out & push it behind. It's a very good stop.

As said before, the following one from the resulting corner is even better imo.

If that's the one I'm thinking of that was a Doyle block rather than a Wilson save I think

I thought that originally too but on replay it goes past Doyle & Wilson saves with his legs. Stats sites all have it recorded as a Wilson save too.

Great save, using his wrist to turn it round the post. I like Wilson.

He produced 3 great saves in about a minute, there was a third that was offside anyway but still a class stop.

Thought he was much more commanding of his area yesterday, came out and claimed a few important crosses. He’s probably just a relieved to have Fadz back as the rest of the defence!

Yeah not taking away from it , it was decent save but not as quite good as made out imo. I might well be incorrect though

It was a very good save - it was probably his best games for us.

It isn’t about one good save though, he has improved perhaps more than a lot thought he would and at the moment well worthy of the number one slot, have to consider he has had young inexperienced defenders in front of him and the loss of McFadz for a lot of games, reckon MR will bring in another keeper in the summer so we’ll have to see if he remains number one or not.

Wilson is an excellent shot stopper and in the top few in the division
Not too worried about his distribution which at times is not great, but probably no worse than many others


He is very poor at commanding his area and communicating with his defence


If he could improve this area of his game, he would be more than good enough to go into next season with

There were some top class saves in the game. Their keepers full length dive for the one from Gyokeres in the first half was awesome too.
