I genuinely can't believe anyone can still have this view. He has been excellent for us over the last 18 months. All goalkeepers make mistakes but Stockdale wins us so many points (Fulham home and away and last night are three obvious recent examples) that it more than makes up for it. He is...

What a performance last night. For those questioning his position in the team at one point, have you changed your mind? He won us the game yesterday, along with Knockaert, and was a key part in both wins against Fulham and the draw against Villa. Not bad for a keeper who does not have a lot to...

Stockdale 9 - What a double save. Think we definitely would have lost if they'd scored the penalty. Otherwise solid generally and nothing he can do about the goal Goldson 6.5 - Not a great game but did okay playing out of position Duffy 8.5 - Superb in the air, especially with 10 men. Meant they...

I couldn't remember the details of that game so looked it up and found a report. Stoke equalised in 93 minutes and then won it in extra time. Their winner was from a free kick awarded for an "innocuous" foul as the BBC called it and the defender was so angry he got sent off for protesting. The...

Difference is we'll have Dunk back and hopefully Stephens (maybe even Kayal). I am hopeful from what's being said that Bong will be back (and maybe even Pocognoli too) but, if not, we will still have a stronger team than on Saturday.

Would be funny but I think they'll end up pushing for a top six place. Derby do seem to have a lot of strikers and never quite get the best out of most of them.

That is right according to Wikipedia. That is a lot of money for a player who has played 22 games across three loan spells in last season and a half and failed to score a single goal!

Exactly. Every game from now until the end of the season. I imagine that Hughton will be saying that to the team rather than the next two games look critical.

Think Derby are looking up though. If Wolves catch them, then they are probably not going to make the play offs. However, they probably think we are still just about catchable, despite the gap, so wouldn't want to loan us a player. Weimann is a strange one. I thought he was a decent player for...

Very weird reaction to this from Newcastle fans. Similar to some of our fans reactions to the Cardiff rearrangement last week. You can't rearrange games based on what happens. There is every chance us and/or Newcastle will get to Round 5, which will lead to another rearranged game. We can't...

Exactly. It is common sense not to play him in the Sussex Senior Cup when he played the last league game and may well be needed in the squad tomorrow. Even if he's not in the squad, it is better to not have him play 48 hours before a massive game in case one of the other left backs has an issue...

You can't have it both ways. You are commenting on the stats at Preston but in other games, where you are saying we got a bit lucky, the stats were the other way round so surely going against your initial point. At Preston, we had a number of key players out and it was our first loss in 19...

It is noticeable from that (and other posts) that the reason for Knockaert's celebration has been quietly forgotten. The reception he got from some Sheffield Wednesday fans when stretchered off in the play offs was terrible (not all, but a fair section). As far as I'm concerned, if fans treat a...

Sorry, he's an idiot. Last time I looked this is a democracy and people in parliament were allowed to make their own choices in votes (rather than being led by a a slight majority). And his area voted to remain too so he's standing up for his constituency.

To be honest, that pretty much sums up most of his 56,000 posts on here.

Do you not read what I said. We need a goalkeeper to play in goal for the under 23s. Do you agree with that? If we want to send out Vose and/or Sanchez on loan, we need to sign someone. Maybe we're on the verge of loaning out one of them to get first team games. I don't know. The key point is...

Exactly. If we don't go up, both Stockdale and Maenpaa are out of contract and one of them may well leave, which would make Walton second choice. Alternatively, if we go up, I imagine he will go on loan again to a Championship side, ideally. He definitely won't be competing with the under 23...

Don't worry. None of that happened, he's just clueless as usual. The article says we've signed him on undisclosed terms until the end of the season.

Walton is probably either going to be on loan again next season or possibly back up for first team if we don't go up. Maybe they have the same idea with Sanchez. You need to loan out goalkeepers. By signing him up until the end of the season (presumably for a small fee as it is undisclosed) we...

Exactly. How on earth anyone can decide it is a strange signing with so little information is beyond me. But then I'm sure some on here know more than the professionals at the club.
