Blaynley Coming!

[CHAPPERS]

That was a long long time ago. He is getting on now and therefore is likely to be prone to more injuries.

32 is no age for a keeper.

 

[algie]

Didn't he have on and off problems with his calf muslcles as well.He also had back problems and other niggley injuries

 

[Da Man Clay]

32 is no age for a keeper.

It is old enough to be more prone to injuries, Especially considering the horrific injury he had to his arm. Im happy for Kuipers to be no 1 now anyway so hopefully he doesn't get injured, however it is nice to have some decent cover and competition of Kuipers starts making mistakes.

 

[algie]

When was Kuipers last injured?

Stop trying to find a excuse for your stupid comment you made earlier which i answered and you kept rather quiet about.

 

[Man of Harveys]

What he said. Kuipers is absolutely no way any more injury-prone than any other player.

 

[algie]

The older you get the more likely you will pick up injuries which will take longer to heal then if you were at a younger age.FACT

Really?Hammond,Robinson etc etc

Look, I'm not denying that. I just don't see how Kuipers isinjury prone and I don't think we need both Kuipers and Blayney. Last time one keeper had a proper run in our side (when we one the two titles) we had Kuipers as a very definite number one. None of this two keeper malarkey.

I think most clubs have decent cover for a 32 year old goal-keeper. Especially one who has thrown his toys out of the pram and gone on the transfer list in the last year, and whos contract is running out in the summer.

That's better! Good point about his contract.

I still don't like having two keepers though.

So if Kuipers picks up a six month injury what would you do?

I do know what you mean, and if Kuipers was 5 or 6 years younger id agree.

Max, I’ve tried arguing this a number of times.

Give Sullivan a go and emergency loan a keeper if needs be.

We've put a lot of faith in youth, why not in goal too?

 

[Mendoza]

And at training this morning in goal we have

Michel Kuipers
Richard Martin
John Sullivan
Chris Winterton
Alan Blayney
Ben Roberts


oh and the arguement kuipers isnt injury prone?? i think he is, he always has a massive injury every year

 

[Da Man Clay]

Are Martin and Sullivan not out on loan somewhere? And doesn't Winterton train with the youth?

 

[Yoda]

Martin is on loan to some part time team (can't remember who) so still trains with us beacuse of that. Sullivan isn't on loan and has been on our bench quite a few times this season. (When Hendo last had his hissy fit, and then again when he was injured).

 

[Safeway]

What a f***ing thick thing to say

Nice.

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

While I agree with this in idea what happens if Martin and Sullivan turn out to be very good?

Also is throwing a youth keeper in while in a relegation battle the best idea?
