Coco the Clean Sheet

[CHAPPERS]

Okay, Roberts has now kept clean sheets in his last three homes games and is looking more assured now he has had a decent run of games in the first team. If Kuipers was match fit for tomorrow would you put him back in the team or keep the Welshman between the sticks?

I'd stick with Roberts personally, if it ain't broke don't fix it and all that.

 

[Braders]

yeah stick with roberts

 

[Schrödinger's Toad]

Has to be Roberts - I've always been a fan, but even for those who aren't - when was the last time he tried to skin a defender? It seems like he's making a concious effort to cut it out and concentrate on what he's best at

Yes, but he had f*** all to do on Wednesday.

 

[Brighton Jock]

I'm with you Repugnant i've always liked Roberts and think he's doing a good job now..........

 

[The Large One]

Kuipers is so good, he would ensure that the other team were LUCKY to get nil.

 

[Uncle Buck]

Since when was Ben Roberts a Welshman? I am sure he is a smoghead.

 

[turienzo's lovechild]

he's from bishop auckland, which is vaguely near middlesborough

which makes him a smoggy.

 

[CHAPPERS]

I thoguht he was a welshman.

Damn my inferior knowledge of journeymen goalkeepers.

 

[Marshy]

Roberts is a far better keeper than Kuipers.

Im getting fed up with saying it.

Kuipers will be go in a summer clear out imho.

 

[Bald Gull]

Definitely stick with Roberts at the moment. Think he is probably the better keeper overall (apart from his fetish for trying to dribble round forwards which he seems to have stopped recently)

Although FDM is back in full training, presumably Mcghee still has major doubts about his fitness given that he wasn't even on the bench on Wednesday.

 

[Knightsworld]

Stick with Roberts, he is looking a bit more confident and responsible at the moment so why change

 

[GUNTER]

Seems to be making less mistakes, perhaps it is because he is getting a good run of matches.

 

[Uncle Buck]

I thoguht he was a welshman.

Well both the accents are odd...

 

[Seagull's Return]

After Walton, there's a temptation to assume any comedy goalkeeper's Welsh...

Having said that, Roberts has done the business lately and personally I think he should keep the shirt - although I still believe Kuipers is a better keeper all in all, Roberts has done well in (so far) cutting out the size-seventeen-feet-and-red-nose stuff, and his distribution's certainly better than FDM's.

Good luck to him, could this be another Guy Butters-like conversion to competent, safe player? Can only hope so.

Like at Stockport less than a fortnight ago where he sprinted 40 yards out of his goal and tried to punch the living daylights out of anything that moved?

 

[Seagull's Return]

Moved fast for a bloke in full clown suit, by the sounds of it - or was he in his car (the one with the doors that fall off, clouds of smoke, etc)?

I think he tried to spray water at their bench with his comedy flower...

Gross exaggeration or your imagination is running away with you.
