Day Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 But can he flap as good as Fielding? you can guarentee at least 2 or 3 times Bloomers will say Fielding flapped at the ball. I've started calling him Flappy Fielding, I think it sound's alot better, I mean who call's their kid Frank these days? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't believe that Atkins uses his hands at all. ........Always the sign of a very good keeper. Shilton vary rarely used his hands. He used to hypnotise on-rushing strikers. And some keepers use a very pitched squeek - almost inaudible - to disable the opposing forward.Gordon Banks was good at that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex W Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 Flappy flap I believe that post should be in the 'Hodgson for Fanni' thread? And Fielding doesn't flap for balls, he commands his area well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Day Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 Well Bloomers said....... Anyhow I don't mind hearing flap for the ball, makes a change from the powder puff line he kept using. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackNwhites Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 Kitson?! :eek: Taylor was excellent but Poom probably wins it for me. I was 10, Tommy Johnson et al. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorfolkRam Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 Robbie savage was solid in goal, didn't make a mistake in his time between the sticks, how many keepers can you say that about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirigible Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 Shilton, end of... Shilton was past his best when he signed for Derby. Colin Boulton is probably the best keeper we ever had, but if we're measuring by the inch, it might be Les Green Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terrymalloy Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 Gotta be Colin Boulton.. in the context of this club. Shilton is obviously the greater goalkeeper... but his achievements were accomplished elsewhere. During DCFC's golden epoch Colin Boulton was an essential reason why we picked up silverware.

RamNut Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 Les was part of the team that went up in style and finished 4th in Div 1 He could easily have played in the Championship winning team. It was a huge shock when he was dropped and it took quite a while for Boulton to win over the fans....which he did by just being damned good. Still had a fondness for Les though. http://www.derbycounty.me.uk/Top%20Sellers/lgff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was dropped quicker than he dropped the ball in the ridiculous 4-4 draw against Man Utd. I think that was his last ever game for us, but perhaps that's my mind playing tricks on me. Rumours of a few too many pints here and there, then a hurried departure for South Africa owing to one or two people he owed a few quid to taking an unhealthy interest in his kneecaps....

RamNut Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 But his whole career shouldnt be judged on one game played in snow....He made some fantastic saves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RamNut Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 I'm not judging him - I liked the bloke. sorry I'm not suggesting you are....its just people always talk about that match whenever Les is mentioned. Graham Richards trashed his reputation in the centenary radio documentary, whilst everyone else was praised. I was disgusted for Les. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
