Crystal Palace Keeper Joins On Loan

[Kinky Gerbil]

That is the daftest thing I've ever heard. No Albion supporter I know really gives a toss about Orient, and Reading??

Like sj said its an age thing - one of the first games I went to was the 4-4 draw at the goldstone the game and all that went on after with Barry Hearn trying to get the club kicked out the league is not an easy thing to forget.

Gillingham have extended the loan spell of Crystal Palace goalkeeper Scott Flinders for a second month. Flinders, 20, was due to return to Selhurst Park after the Gills trip to Crewe on Saturday.

Gillingham manager Jepson told the club's website: "He has come in and done very well and hopefully he has found his feet now. He is highly-thought of in the England set-up as well as at Crystal Palace, and he's been a good addition for us."

BR. Your avator should be changed. It says winning is everything.

The mole is in place. Now Agent Flinders, do your worst!

Mwahahahaha

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Agent Finders sounds rather evil, or someone that works for a fish company.

 

[algie]

thats bullshit. wilkins has proven that he is happy to play his youth, its more likely that he isn't playing sullivan/martin cos he thinks they're not ready for it.

At last.Someone with some brains on here.

The mole is in place. Now Agent Flinders, do your worst!

Mwahahahaha

Agent Flinders can't f*** us up anywhere near as badly as Agent Taylor is doing to your sorry club.

 

[eagleseatseagulls]

Agent Taylor? He was with you for one season wasn't he?

Flinders has let in something like 16 goals in 11 appearances for us.

I fear for you,

 

[acrossthepond]

the club's given him the number 1 shirt?

I fear for you,

In fairness, 16 goals in 11 games playing behind your defence, is a damn good record.

 

[Yorkie]

And you think Flinders isn't?

A clean sheet and 3 points says he isn't.

Well played Polly.

According to the Argus he's been ill.

Scott Flinders today revealed how he dragged himself out of his sick bed to help Albion to a third successive victory.

The on-loan goalkeeper had to be persuaded to play by Seagulls boss Dean Wilkins after suffering with flu for three weeks.

The England under-20 international only spent 30 minutes training with his new team-mates before the game after signing for a month from Crystal Palace.

But he kept a valuable clean sheet under intense pressure as Albion desperately hung onto the lead Bas Savage had given them in the first half.

Flinders said: "I have not been feeling well and this was my first game for four weeks.

"I was worried about playing because I didn't want to let anybody down but it is just great to be here and help the lads to a fantastic win."

Flinders, who played 11 games on loan for Gillingam earlier in the season, believes Albion fans have not seen the best of him yet.

He added: "I wasn't that pleased but I can't complain with a clean sheet on my debut."

Did he play well to keep a clean sheet or was the Brighton defence a solid wall in front of him.

He was a tad shacky (to put it mildly with high balls and crosses), also helped by the fact they could not hit a cows arse with a banjo.....

 

[Publius Ovidius]

he did a henderson at one point, palming the ball out towards the centre spot, but Butters and Lynch were on fire yesterday followed on by O'gooner.....so he was protected well.

their finishing wa spretty dire when they had the chance to score

 

[NS Herald]

Sounds like the back 4 in particular did a great job in protecting him.

He certainly came across as an alright bloke on the radio but with respect to him, the sooner FDM is back where he belongs the better
