[Football] David Stockdale

[Herr Tubthumper]

Think DS was just a home loving Yorkshire lad whose family and fishing came first, and football came second. Not quite sure where setting up in business with Leon Knight came into the equation tho

In business with Leon Knight?

My nearest Pro club, love them to go up. Lots flags flying locally, decently supported side for their size and history. Let’s hope they do it for Bill Turnbill! Come on the Chairboys!!

They started a very short lived clothing company together.

Blunderdale never thought he was a great keeper, concentration issues.

This.

Being a great bloke doesn't equate to being a great keeper.

I wish him ell thouigh.

Was my local team. Went to school in Wycombe and lived in Beaconsfield, Loudwater and Farnham Common between 89 and 02
Used to watch them regularly

They allowed us to do a sit in to demonstrate for a new stadium.
We also had great fun with a megaphone.

Its a Brighton fan thing unfortunately some enjoy misfortunes of former players.

And current ones...

People seemingly itching for March, Stephens, Duffy or Connelly to make errors, to not cut the custard.

It’s a funny old world.

Met him and he was first class with my daughter. There is a nasty pattern on NSC that as soon as a player leaves us they:

A) Are open to criticism that they would never have got when they were here from most - suddenly they were shit.

B) Are open to ridicule for the rest of their career.

Completely ignoring all the positive contributions they made to our club...

Doesn’t sit well with me. Bridcutt, Buckley etc all have had the same...

Hemed and Baldock too .... Albion heroes, but some boots put in, once they didn’t set the world alight for struggling EFL clubs.

Birmingham came calling with a 3 year contract on a salary of £40k a week.
Not sure he was worried where he was playing as this arrived each week.
Took the decision this was one last payday too good to turn down rather than stay with us or join Leeds.

You undoubtedly must have served me then! Two of my closest friends had their wedding reception there too. Shame it’s gone, the barrier on the free car park, albeit not theirs, opposite them when they introduced charges was partly responsible. They wanted nearly a million each for the two houses they built on the site! For a semi detached with no parking! Wish the old tea hut in the dell in the BB just down the lane was also still there. Happy days, best cuppa in Bucks and only a quid. Saturday morning bacon butties and a dog walk. You could still drive through BB then too.

It's a familiar thing. Player leaves and was wrong, let's hope he fails. Also sometimes used as a yardstick to beat current players with.

Likewise any player who retires from international duty. While playing for the country he was nit good enough, retires and suddenly a cracking player who we don't have cover for.

 

[GoingUp]

Stockdale was brilliant for us, I thought we were f*cked when he left and saw we got an unknown, short goalkeeper.......... thankfully that unknown, short goalkeeper is turned out to be pretty decent probably our best bit of recruitment tbh

Didn't Stockdale leave because he was only offered a 1 year deal? I think he would have stayed if offered a decent 3 year contract.

Well played Stockers

Hahaha, that was a classic own goal entirely Stockdale's fault. Still love the bloke though. I wonder if he's as deluded as his fellow fans though. I guess not as he would understand how football works.

Every defender knows you should aim a back pass wide of the goal but let’s all laugh at the keeper who got us promoted.

I agree, it WAS funny wasn't it......

Born in Leeds, I believe.
