He was a clear upgrade on Sels in the Championship season and that was it, but the mistakes he made in the Premier League he was still making down there (that airkick at Norwich to let Cameron Jerome score man). :lol:

 

Not convinced we'd have pulled away from relegation with him and Elliot, the difference between those two and Dubravka when he came in was huge. 

 

Sels is up there with one of the worst players I've ever seen play more than once or twice for us.

As far as keepers go when we were really rubbish Steve Hardwick and Kevin Carr looked like Sunday morning pub keepers. All set to go to the club and play bingo, watch strippers and drink LCL for the rest of the day.

 

And, then there’s Mike Hooper.

We need to redact the past couple of pages, wait, the thread. Just in case anyone from Bournemouth read it. We need this to go through.

I have faith - it’ll go through like the ball goes through darlows hands.

Limited player, like so many under our limited ownership and managers over the years, was probably all we could attract at the time, seems to want to continue his career instead of picking up free money to clock in 9-5 and do nothing like some others so good luck, thanks for trying your part in one of the worst periods in history for the club.

 

A couple of quid in the bank and another free locker at the training ground.

How reliable is Alex Crook? He seems to divide opinion.

He’s far more in the Romano ‘comment when it’s nearly done’ than in the Ornstein bracket of transfer breakers. He also comes across as an insufferable dick on TalkSport.

Classic


He fucking hates us, always got a face like a smacked arse when talking about us. He's also bet Jim white a grand that villa finish above us.

Lots of interesting thoughts, seems like he isn't that rated by many on here.

 

For what it's worth, he'd only be picking up a pay packet with us as well. He won't be anywhere near challenging Neto for the number one spot, he made such an impact last season after displacing Travers that he finished the season as captain. He'll be at best backup and may be even third choice which is why the £5m fee made no sense. If it's about £1m then maybe, since Travers looks set to move on to the Championship. I'm hoping he goes on loan for a year rather than a permanent deal, which would have this making more sense. In 12 months Rudolph is out of contract so Travers would return as our number two and Darlow then be number three.

Much like the other TalkSPORT deviant, The Moose.

 Holy fuck is he/it still a thing!

Utter giggling prat (and that's harsh on prats).

Thankfully haven't had misfortune to listen to that pile of shite in years. Are the other idiots still there too? There was an obnoxious thick Evertonian, Parry I want to say, Brazil (ever expanding and as right wing as Himmler) plus other associated eejits - tri;y awful radio station.

Brazil is still there, face ever expanding and the shade of an over-cooked ham shank.

 

Parry has been axed. I think the embarrassment of the Cinnamon Challenge was too much:

He’s not that bad tbh; I mean, I definitely wouldn’t want him starting too many games for us but he’s a perfectly serviceable back-up keeper for teams in the bottom half of the PL. He’s a solid shot stopper with good agility and won’t kick up a fuss if not starting.  A couple of poor pre-season games have led to some knee-jerk reactions from some.
