BY all accounts Kuipers had a good game vs Bradford - despite the confusion with Little Hinsh.

Assuming both Henderson and Kuipers are fit - who would you pick for the Northwich game?

Henderson wanted to leave and handed in a transfer request at the worst possible time..loyalty is a hard thing to find and this man isnt..I say let the pixie go!

Kuipers has been albion through and through for years MR loyal and is a bloody nice guy and is a better shot-stopper!

FDM!

Whichever one's fit, it seems we do need two good keepers with both their above average number of injuries. I really don't care to be honest, both bring diffrerent things and I'm happy with either and where is that option in this poll :angry: :)

Kuipes is the better shot stopper tho Hendo is the better kicker, i prefer kuipers,

the best keeper we had was when ben roberts 1st came on loan to us, he was a monster!!

I dont think henderson will hang around very long if he's not in the team...i have a feeling that wilkins prefers henderson though..not sure why though!

Well you can't play two goalkeepers, and the question is if both are fit, who would you play? Be DECISIVE!!

Oh, and the right answer is Sir Michel....


The one who has the shirt..obvious to me :rolleyes: whichever one is picked the other won't have to wait too long, a bad game, an injury, an international call will see a change.

I wouldn't really put that down to Kuipers. Hinsh just lobbed him. :lolol:

The one who has the shirt and is in a winning team should stay in so Kuipers should stay in.

For the same reasons as EVERY other manager has....coz he's better!!

Hendo all the way, he'll be remembered by fans long after Kuipers has gone even if only because of his antics at Bradford.

Henderson = Brighton Legend. :bowdown: :bowdown:

Kuipers has been the most patient and loyal goalies of l;ast few years..compared to a little irish upstart who hands in transfer requests willie nillie....if thats a legend then???!!!

I much prefer quality point blank saves ie kuipers ,than getting escorted out of the ground for running on the pitch..if thats your thought process then maybe your idea of a decent fan would be leaving the ground on saturday smashing up a curry shop or doing the job liz costa does for the club!

So Kuipers has never handed in a transfer request, thrown tantrums and refused to sit on the bench then:dunce:

No. He he never asked to move, the reason he wasn't on the bench was due to his massive bust up with McGhee including telling him "at least I'll be here next season". :D :clap:

Kuipers is along with players like Hart and Oatway an adopted Brightonian. He loves the club. That said I'm quite happy to forgive and forget Henderson's unfortunate paddy as he clearly has seen the light now, and on top form is the better keeper.

Kuipers is a good point blank save maker, which is just as well coz with his kicking he's always gonna be under pressure. And if you dont think Henderson is gonna go down in history for Saturday then you are sorely mistaken.

Lastly, sorry to be so harsh but even if Kuipers has been loyal it doesnt mean that it should guarentee him a place in the team. If there is a better player in the said position, and there clearly is, then that player should play, no question.

Not a comparison now as Henderson has come on by leaps and bounds and is far better in every department that MK other than perhaps support, but even that is questionable after Saturday.

What is going to happen at the end of the season with regards to the keepers? Kuipers is out of contract, Sullivan has one year left and I think Martin and Henderson have 2 years left.

The obvious thing would be to let Kuipers go, more than anything due to having 3 other keepers, however if we do not go up, Henderson is likely to want to move on as to not damage his international prospects.
