Kevin Poole? Player obviously, not coach!

You dont think we are more of an attacking threat from corners?

[Gone]

Noooooooo I hope not, that ONE corner routine he invented that we scored from ONCE was so amazing that Rams and Sky TV had to mention it every time we got a set “developed by Shay Given” piece. Unfortunately one swallow doesn’t make a summer and our goal keepers have useless since he’s been here.

We've had problems in the goalkeeping department for the whole time Given has been with us. Of course Eric Steele was excellent, as was Zuby. Yes we had a brief spell when we became dangerous at set pieces, but then we stopped that for unfathomable reasons. I appreciated his loyalty when Frank and Jody buggered off, but at the same time I was hoping he'd have gone with them.

Harsh to blame Given as our goalkeeping coach is Jason Pearcey.

[Steve How Hard?]

Does this mean that there is the possibility of Chris Weale returning?

[QuitYourJibbaJivin]

Wouldn’t be arsed either way. If we are going to stick with Rooney which seems highly likely unless he walks, he should at least be able to pick his own back room staff.

not blaming all in him.... but, if a top class goalkeeper is in you management team i expect improvement , one of our problems has been the goalkeeper 

[Andrew3000]

Don't know what he contributed but I like the idea of Rooney bringing in his own people who will freshen things up.

Do you have a source - your mate, your mum, someone down the road?  I've had a bit of a Google (other search engines are available) and can't find diddly.  Just wondered where you heard this.......

If we save money then why not

Not the best to judge him on that. We had Carson before who is a better keeper than Marshall Or Roos. I don’t think the goalkeeping position is priority at the moment. Keepers are decent, just not as good as Carson was. 

[hintonsboots]

Poor mans Les Green.

[YouRams]

If he is at least we don’t have to hear sky say “Shay Given has been working with the team on special set pieces” for us to do absolutely nothing with said set pieces. 

[IslandExile]

So is there any substance to this rumour or is it just a close season conversation? It's not like there's nothing else happening.

We were more of a threat from corners for 1 game and then it went back to normal.

Personally not that bothered if he goes, but appreciate he stayed loyal when Frank went. If Rooney is staying id rather he be allowed to choose his own back room staff, so get rid of Rosenior as well
