Michel Kuipers must stay. Sign here.

[Kent Seagull]

I think we need both of them to keep each other on their toes. Competition is healthy therefore FDM must stay even if he's not the automatic first choice all the time.

 

[Locky]

More than Stay.......we should be offering him a new deal and a 3 year contract............................not Fu**ing selling him.

 

[jonnyboylennon]

Stay. Roberts is too northern.

 

[Trotster]

FDM - you MUST stay!!!

Please?

 

[Bigtomfu]

just what the hell happens at every football club accross the land. come the appointment of a new and "Respected, talented, experienced etc...." manager they all without fail are blinkered towards certain players abilities.
SC- still favoured watson over hinshelwood, ie same player but with pace could use his right foot, tackles, makes forward runs, crosses and plays sensibly...
MAGOO- at last believes hinsh is better, but wait for it..... NOOOOOOOO Roberts is cr*p compared to FDM, the only similarity being that they're kicking isnt up to much..
WHY DOES THIS HAPPEN ?
Famous examples....
Houllier- Heskey
Ferguson- Fortune,Neville(S)
Wenger- Grimandi, Wiltord
Reid- @ Sunderland- Kilbane, @ leeds- Paul Okon (Even after venables left....)

This kind of thread didn't sway Coppell, and I doubt it will sway Kuipers.

I refuse to contribute.

Oh bugger, I just have !

 

[Wilko]

MKFDM - Brightons number one !!

So, we sell kuipers then injury-prone Coco gets a back ache and we end up with Flitney/Packham style keeper in the sticks - bollox to that.

Sell roberts and use the money for a striker or midfielder.

 

[Southy]

Kuipers form is not good and on his last few performances it is outrageous for him to say he expects first team football. His kicking is apalling and well below the level required for this division. Yes we know he is a brilliant shot stopper and a top bloke, but that is only half of a keepers game. He should be working every hour in training on sorting out his shite kicking and distribution generally, then he has the right to whinge to the Argus. Both Keepers are good and playing well below their full potential IMO. We have to get tough and forget how good FDM was in the past, on current form with his bad distribution he'd be lucky to get in a conference side.

 

[Kenhead]

please stay michel!! albion legend!

 

[Simon]

When the going gets tough you need a brave Marine!

Michel Kuipers.
You are a fans favourite and part of the Albion legend.
We would all be very happy if you ignored the allure of Hull() and stayed right here sir!

 

[elbowpatches]

FDM must not go! Keep the competition for places not look at making a quick bit of money on him.

 

[Raphael Meade]

Michel MUST stay.

I will cry if he doesnt and the club will be in a far worse position.

PLEASE DONT GO MICHEL!!!!


p.s. fatboy, can i come to his house with you!?!!!!

 

[southstandandy]

Definitely want him to stay - but think it's unlikely he will.

This was always going to happen. We were never going to keep them both happy.

If he does go then thanks for the 2 championships, but I just wish he would go to a club in a higher division than Hull. He is at least good enough for our division (minimum) and probably ought to be playing in the first.

Don't lower your standards Michel - you're better than that.

 

[Zeitgeist]

It's looking a lost cause. Meridian sport ran the "Kuipers going to Hull story". After Bookers less than convincing denial, I fear it could be farewell to the FDM.

 

[Blackadder]

Kuipers must stay!!

 

[berkshire seagull]

One has to give as its impossible to keep em both happy and kuipers is gone.

 

[Raphael Meade]

NO!!! roberts can be gone. sign up people

 

[Fran Hagarty]

If he wants to go, we're not going to change his mind. He's been great while he's been here but things move on.

 

[Zed Seagull]

Michel must stay!!!

If he is not thinking of his loyalty to the club then he should leave.

No player is bigger than any club - disappointed if he is trying to hold the club to ransom.
