Keeper needed

[robbiez666]

Last night demonstrated the danger of relying on one fit senior keeper. Madness.

Amissah did ok when he came on but he could easily have dropped a bollock and cost us the game. We know what the fans are like with a player who has a poor game and do we really want to throw a youngster in the firing line. Our 5th choice keeper, I believe. Look what happened to Long.

Whatever is up with Wes, he fairly regularly needs treatment for something or other, which is not normal for a keeper.

We need to be signing someone at least until January. Whether that's a loan or permanent. Main priority, for me.

So let’s say that Amissah is that 2nd choice keeper. Let’s say he’s the keeper that the club has faith in to do a job.

Wes played pretty much every game last season after we binned off Olsen. He was highly underrated before that and he was almost written off too based on past reputation…

It’s not to say that Amissah is the messiah but it sounds like he is

Wes is ill not injured.
We have three keepers in the squad so I cannot see how we can fit another one in.
Amissah is not our 5th choice and he is 21 as well as looking confident and competent .

Wes hasn't missed a first class game since he got into the team and had a stomach virus last night.

Davies isn't that far away is he?

Not sure Corporal Jones would be telling Napoleon not to panic just yet.

I know Amissah didnt have too much to do last night, but I wouldnt lose sleep over knowing that he'd have to be our 1st choice keeper for the next few games.

What would worry me is the defensive line infront of him

 

[Greasy Chap Butty]

Wes had the shits.

That's next week's song sorted

Amissah did ok when he came on but he could easily have dropped a bollock and cost us the game.

Egan did ok, but in a moment of madness he could have blazed one into our top corner.

 

[Tezza1889]

He's our goalie and he had the shits.

keeping clean sheets between the sticks.

came from Glasgow and he saves em in goal.

And he goes by the name of league one Wes...

I'm still hungover from last night.. Sorry..

What a stupid post
We've got two keepers and one not yet fit
Wes is ill and will be back for next game and if he isn't we will use an emergency loan

Stop being such a drama queen

It's a wonder any club bothers having more than one keeper given there are magical emergency loans available of great keepers.

What a bizzare interpretation

What a bizzare interpretation

You seem to be saying it wouldn't matter if Wes broke his leg against Hull next Sunday because we can use get an emergency loan in and we have another senior keeper who might bit fit soon? A guy with ligament damage who is still in a brace?

Do you not think it would be wiser to get someone until January than take the gamble that there might be a decent keeper available on an emergency loan?

Bit of a jump from what I've said to what you think I ' seem ' to be saying
Broken legs take longer to recover from than the shits

No. We can only have a squad of 23 plus youngsters and at 21 I am not sure Amissah is now “young” as the cut off used to be 23.
We don’t have room for a 4th keeper especially if we bring in a Fleck cover

 

[Auld Reekie Blade]

“…but he could easily have dropped a bollock…”

A bit like Hendo v Villa or Liverpool? Didn’t seem to do him any harm, or tarnish his relationship with us supporters.

"Amissah did ok when he came on but he could easily have dropped a bollock "

Couldn't you say that about any player on the pitch?
He came on and played very well would br my summary. Factual observation rather than hypothetical pessimism.

 

[Keen Blade]

So let’s say that Amissah is that 2nd choice keeper. Let’s say he’s the keeper that the club has faith in to do a job.

It’s not to say that Amissah is the messiah but it sounds like he is

Amissah sounds like Our Messiah to me

 

[Champagneblade]

By the sounds of it, it’s not a keeper we need, it’s a batch of Imodium!

 

[SwissBlade]

Amissah sounds like Our Messiah to me

He’s not our messiah, he’s a very naughty boy

Don't even think about what he DID, just worry about what he MIGHT have done.
It's the Blades Way

 

[Brian Deane]

Egan did ok, but in a moment of madness he could have blazed one into our top corner.

I thought Egan looked very iffy throughout and was very lucky not have given a penalty away when the ball hit his arm. If VAR had been available then I'm sure it would have been awarded.

 

[Edgar Allan Poo]

Wes had the shits.

Why? It's not like he was facing goal machine Olly!

 

[A Storm of Blades]

When your arse starts to gripe and it takes a hundred wipes, that’sa Foderingham…

[sufcboy95]

Since when does Wes regularly need treatment?

 

[jono_t2000]

Pretty sure we were saying another keeper needed when we 'only' had Wes as backup.

Now hes our number 1..

At least give Amissah a fucking chance!!
