johnnypd Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 don't know if today's goal is his fault or not, so i'm not basing my judgement on that, but he has gotten progressively worse as the season has gone on. you'd think finally getting regular football that he would improve but he is a worse keeper than he was this time last year. personally i'd stick with him from the start of next season, but basically say that him, krul and forster start on a level footing from the off. if harper's not doing great stick one of the younger lads in. i'd also play krul in a couple of matches before the season closes, just for experience.

gdm Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 We need to loan Krul to a decent team in Italy, France, or Spain and see how he actually does. Harper is too old to sacrifice our future for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CPL Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 We have more weaker positions to replace so in that sense, Yes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weezertron Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 I'd rather keep Harper for next season if it meant keeping Krul and Forster. Dont want a new keeper if it means Harps getting moved to back up and krul and Forster moving on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madras Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 i voted yes, naturally unless we can get someone better 9(which i dont think we have at the club at present.........yet) other positions are far more pressing priorities. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cajun Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Considering it was started about 4 minutes after his "latest clanger" then you can see why people would assume such things He has been making mistakes recently, and you only need to listen to the commentary and see people's reactions to see he may have made another one tonight. Even if he didnt, this is still a reasonable question to ask, ive seen a lot of people on here being torn on him lately. If this thread was made before the game, tomorrow or something like that then fair enough but it was created as soon as the "fuck sake Harper!" posts started appearing about a goal no-one is sure about and the BBC commentary are calling a good save. The bit in bold suggests you have made your mind up about tonight anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cajun Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Kneejerk!!! Basically a lot of keepers go through a dodgy spell, including Van Der Saar who looked like he was pissed for a while making shocking mistakes. It happens and if we are going to be sensible we will judge him over the whole season, not a poor run. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 We need a new GK, sadly. Harper's strength is his consistency, it's starting to go. I don't want Krul anywhere near either, btw. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 can't accuse midds of kneejerk, he's hated harper for years I've not hammered him at all this season tbh. In fact I've even stuck up for the fat, useless orange twat earlier on. I've not seen tonight's alleged mistake but he does appear to have cost us a few goals recently. Still probably not enough to drop him for next year though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Start of the season I thought we'd get away with having him as I thought he'd be a mid-table quality keeper...that confidence in him is waning by the match. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
