Peter Grummitt

 

[cheshunt seagull]

Beeney from this list but Grummitt was the best IMHO by some distance

 

[the full harris]

i voted rust.

i think he did get in the u21 squad or something like that. dunno why?


what about Stuart Kerr?
he went on to play for Celtic.

 

[turienzo's lovechild]

why isn't simon royce on that list?

 

[Gullet]

Why no mention of Brian Powney-an Albion Legend for the older fans?

Do you know what? I was thinking the same thing.

 

[saltash seagull]

This is an age thing.

Graham Moseley for me

Nicky Rust was without doubt the worst Albion keeper I have ever seen, so if this is true I will be gobsmacked

It is true he was called in the Squad as an emergency player in about 1995.I remember it on the back of the Argus and that truth itself.

Mark Beeney for me. Neither Kuipers nor Roberts would even get close to him.

I think most people who go that far back and saw him would go for Peter Grummit - I remeber a stunning save in the south end from Brian Talbot aginst Ipswich - the second best save ever IMHO, after Gordon banks against Pele.
In recent times, I'd go for Kuipers - granite (usually!) in the two championship seasons and had the knack of making great saves at the right time. A brilliant save when you are three up or three down is brilliant but worth nothing - when you're 1 goal up and hanging on with 5 mins to go it's brilliant AND worth two points. I can remember many of those by the FDM

Tony Meola

Has to be Kuipers, IMO I dont think we would of won back to back championships without him!

 

[34064 Fighter Command]

Wot no Andy Petterson

And where's Lurch ?

Chez you have missed off the best ever Albion keeper;
Brian Powney!

 

[Digweeds Trousers]

I cannot believe you have left off the legend himself - Brain McKenna. What a debut against Middlesbrough. Anyone else remember him??
