Yes higher opposition but the 5th or 6th goal (can't remember which one) was a clanger , and they scored 2 corners where the cross came in 6 yard box and he stayed on his line , just seemed a bit clueless , and at 22 you'd hope he'd of played more by now than 16 games in a tier that low (and conceding 32 goals) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on @Day tighten up the Ts and Cs. Open a ‘call someone a w⚓️ in here’ thread in the Jim Smith room and ban non footballing arguments on the forum 😂 Or a better idea just make it clear that people should ask why someone has that opinion rather than telling them they no f all, after all that's what forums are for, comments like his are clearly to wind up someone that supports the same team as him , pathetic May Contain Nuts 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 Well, he's a Derby player now and here to fit a specific (likely non-playing) role for us. Good luck to the lad. Tamworthram, DE56Ram and Ilkestonian 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not great goal keeping, not great defending as a whole, but none of the goals I'd describe as a "clanger". (Caveat: I did watch it on my phone). jono 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rammieib Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 Desperation signing. Why? We have an England kid on the books. He should be third choice and should be going with the squad to games for experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe the lad you're on about is out on loan gaining experience which in the long run in better for us angieram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should be third choice and should be going with the squad to games for experience. Desperation would suggest doing something in a hurry and panic, this guy has been with the team throughout the pre-season, has been training with them daily, has played in friendlies….seems a fairly sensible and considered approach to making a signing. If the complaint is that he’s not of the required quality that’s a different conversation, but at 22 on a one year deal, probably low wages, and with him likely being third choice to enable the young talented lads to get loan time as a first choice somewhere rather than sitting on our bench and playing u21s I feel there’s some logic in it.

He should be third choice and should be going with the squad to games for experience. I think everyone knows Thompson’s time will come, but he’s not old enough to buy a beer yet. If we can get him in men’s football, playing regularly that will benefit his career far more than being on a coach and sitting in the stands. The goalkeeper position is a precarious one, one or two mistakes and your card is marked. If we had to throw a 17 year old in goal Friday night, in a big game, where he makes a mistake. Hard coming back from that, even at a young age. angieram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapeTownRams Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 Strange one this. Not a great record and u would think there are better options out there if we need a third choice keeper…and no, I’m not gonna get into the , ‘So, who ?’ endless discussion… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anag Ram Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 He’s been training with the squad.The management team, with years of professional experience, have seen him far more than anyone on here. They’ve offered him a contract. I would imagine he’s a pretty decent goalkeeper. Caerphilly Ram, jono and DE56Ram 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
