sunnyside Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 According to today's Mirror (so taken with a small pinch of salt), he's joining us on loan. Currently playing for Liverpool reserves. Good back up for the Duke? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdinburghRam Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Nige said another player in was doubtful but if Jones was to come then i'd imagine he'd be above Duke in the pecking order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bris Vegas Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 And this would take our loan list for this season to what? 8 or 9? Kuqi, Moore, Ward, Robinson, Bueno, Fielding x2, Duke, Ayala, Jones.. Am I missing anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hartley Hare Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 According to RD, Duke has been recalled by Hull. Clough has used his extensive contacts within (Liverpool) football (club) and secured Jones for the rest of the season. I think this is a good signing, especially done so quickly. I guess Clough knew there was a possibility that Duke would be recalled since Hull's other 2 keepers have been struggling for fitness lately, so perhaps he had this option lined up and ready to go. Jones has got some good experience behind him and having been at Boro he's used to playing behind a dodgy defence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davenportram Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 I guess the League don't think it's extenuating enough to extend Fielding, that's a shame but at least we could get this guy in before the loan window closes later today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Decent keeper that could hold down a number 1 shirt at many clubs but decided to go and play backup at Liverpool and put his career on hold. More than happy to see him inbetween the sticks for the remainder of the season. Interesting that we didn't use the recall option and bring Bywater back.

dcfcdavecov Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 He's played his last game for us hasn't he. http://www.instructables.com/image/FJQRO0FFWI9VFI9/Party-Time-Batch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 I like Bywater...maybe abit twisted in the head but he's a decent keeper that's having a bad season, happens in football. You don't become a bad keeper overnight, and the messiah Fielding hasn't exactly been mistake free since coming back but he's Frank Fielding so we can overlook those.

With Fielding in goal we have collected 30 pts out of 45pts from 15 games. Pts per game raio for Fielding 2pts and Bywater 0.6." Says it all for me.

Hucknall Ram Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 What the mistake against Swansea and people still gave him 7 or 8 out of ten match rating, if that was Bywater he would of got 3 or 4 out of ten, rat out, Clough out and board out.

I agree people on here make him out to better than he is, but he is better than Bywater....poor, poor Cardiff fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What back 4 has been in front of the keepers for those games tho, how many fit genuine strikers that took the pressure of the defence have both keepers had? It's easy to blame the keeper but the players in front of you make a huge difference. Fielding has been lucky being at the club when we had our good spell with Kuqi and Moore upfront. After Fielding went back we had Porter learning to walk again and Davies coming back from how many months out? Recently we've had a regular back 4 of Roberts, Ayala, Barker, Brayford. Having a regular back 4 helps any team out. For me those stats mean jack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcfcdavecov Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Yes there are variables, but confidence, distribution, organisation are all variables aswell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Yes there are variables, but confidence, distribution, organisation are all variables aswell. If I was a defender I wouldn't feel that confident during set pieces with Fielding in goal, seeing this 5ft little bald kid come flapping around makes me cringe even when I'm watching the highlights 2 or 3 days after the game. I don't dislike the kid and I would be happy to see him as our number 1 next season, he just has flaws as does Bywater. Given a full season inbetween the sticks and the messiah status wears off he will come in for some flak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But i think Bywater was the real weak link and in the dressing room aswell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
