Adam Davies

[thehet]

Time to make yourself a hero.
Just kidding.

How many points will he cost us between now and the end of the season?

I’m not sure whether or not I want to know if bringing in a new GK was discussed in January by the recruitment team.

That said, good performance today by the team though. UTB

 

[Frank the tank]

Think he will be fine
He's not brilliant and his confidence is low but cooper conceded from every shot in target anyway

 

[Blade 1971]

How's Ivo doing?

Based on today, he still worries me

 

[Bladeloyal]

With fans like ours who needs fucking enemies

 

[GreasyChipBeattie]

I was going to post something about him after today's game, but decided against it as we'd won.
However, now it's out there, I'm just hoping today he was a bit ring rusty, and a little over enthusiastic to make a good impression.
If not, and today's showing is what have to look forward to, I fear the worst.

 

[Bladesman]

How's Ivo doing?

Not got any better has he?

 

[Booker4]

Listening to Wilder today with t seems we're not bringing anyone in and I'm not sure we can anyway?

 

[JT89]

He’s hardly played so is never going to come in full of confidence. If he gets a run of games between now and the end of the season then we will all be able to make a better/fairer judgement on him at the end of the season.

Some people seem to want us to have an experienced, top-end championship standard keeper as a number 2 sat on the bench all season but that’s just not realistic, how many championship teams actually have that luxury?

The fact we didn’t bring in another keeper in January to allow Cooper to have whatever surgery/recovery he clearly needs is just extremely poor management.

 

[Ginger Gnome]

Davies has tended to have a couple of big mistakes in every game he's played but he's never had a particularly long run of games which won't help. His mistakes today didn't cost us and he's probably due a bit of luck since most other keepers have errors of judgement that they get away with too.

 

[JT89]

I’m pretty sure we can’t bring another keeper in now, even if they’re a free agent, because we wouldn’t be able to register them.

If Davies gets injured or suspended we’d be able to bring in an emergency loan.

Adam is a car crash

Awful

And he won’t be fine at all IMO , every corner today exposed us as defensively lightweight . Add that to the erratic goalie - FFS

I've seen him enough times over the last few years to form the impression that he is not very good. Why we have never had a competent backup mystifies me.

 

[Super_Dazzler]

Rabbit in the headlights, good job we’ve got nowt to play for!!!

 

[JT89]

When have you seen him have a consistent run of games rather than the odd game or cup game where the whole team is terrible?

How many championship teams have what you’d call a competent backup who’s happy to sit on the bench for 40+ games a season?

 

[Edgar Allan Poo]

Only seen him in odd games. Needs a run of games to try to prove his worth.

Hold my beer !

 

[Bell4]

And he will probably get them

Good luck to him

That's just so untrue you didn't watch us against Southampton and Portsmouth

Kept the score down against Southampton, won us the game against Portsmouth.

Would've been 4-0 and 4-0 with this clown show in goal.

Ask any of them, they've all got a better backup than us.

Ask Barnsley fans what they think of him, or Stoke?

I don't need a run of games to make an opinion. His decision making, particularly on crosses is poor. When we release him, I expect him to slide down the leagues.

If you don’t think you need a keeper to have a run of games before you can judge them properly then you don’t know what you’re talking about and shouldn’t bother sharing your opinion on goalkeepers…

 

[Bertie Mee]

Flapper Davies has been nicking a wage off us for years. If the season wasn’t over it certainly is now. The entire team are clearly working their backsides off to keep the ball away from him and they did well doing so today but they won’t be able to do that forever. I’m pissed with Wilder that we are in this position, it should have been addressed ages ago.

 

[coolasanidiot]

Every corner he was awful, looks like an outfield player that’s had to go in the nets. Given that people have been saying all season Coops is injured scandalous that we haven’t had fore sight to get a good back up in. Regardless of whether season over or not we shouldn’t have to panic every opposing attack.

 

[Lower Drop Blade]

Davies seems a good egg but is conference level at best. Should have been binned 2 years ago. Really not sure why it's not been addressed other than he plays a good DJ set in changing room?

 

[Blademan89]

It was brave the mad bastard & comical just glad it didnt cost us a goal lol.

How many games does he have to play before I am allowed to voice my opinion? I have seen every game of his career with us and his weaknesses are obvious. There is a reason that he has never replaced Cooper this year, despite Cooper being clearly injured for most of it.

EDIT just seen the highlights from today and there were two rushes of blood from him that could have cost us dearly. I fail to see how a few games is going to cure him of the faults that have plagued him throughout the year.

 

[Keen Blade]

Season is over , so it's time to give a chance to various players to prove they're worth keeping.

At least he touched the ball today.

Cannon never did - what an absolute waste of a shirt he is.

Coasts through a game while it passes him by.

Does literally nothing , causes the opposition no worries whatsoever.

Never mind the fee - that's a sunk cost - just get him off the wage bill , the "non-footballer".

Chong , whom I haven't rated too highly , played very well today and - like Campbell - was part of the 3 who made all the progress in the first half.
Peck - of course - was the leader of that trio and basically ran the entire midfield himself - what a player !

Yes an experienced veteran who'd be happy to be No2 just to step in .
