[Albion] Who is your favourite EVER Albion keeper?

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Brian Powney

That was my vote too. Powney.

Hey I did my best here. These pre-historic keepers were hard to find. The ones that I did include are only there because of NSCers user names.

You also forgot to include Ruel Fox.

FDM, obs, but I am galled by the omission of Nicky Rust. I was convinced he would play in the premier league, even England, when i first saw him

 

[Triggaaar]

I'd be surprised if he got a single vote here though.

It doesn't matter that he was a decent keeper, he threw a strop and refused to be part of the team. How on earth could someone then have him has their favourite Albion keeper?

The obvious answer to the question, is Lewis Dunk

Keeley was a fantastic keeper, but the grass was always greener for him. The only person I can think of who left us twice. As a player he left to sit on the bench at Oldham and then as a coach he left to join Portsmouth. Like I say, brilliant keeper but definitely not a favourite.
Kuipers was my favourite.

Peter grummitt for me , classy keeper

Yep, nothing better than a Grummit tip over the bar in a midweek promotion battle under the floodlights at the Goldstone

 

[Jesus Gul]

Tony Meola

Always and forever Kuipers.
If you know you know.

John Keeley is the only one I have had a pint with. Fairly late on New Years' Eve 1987 in the Stadium Tavern.

Next morning I watched him save a penalty at Craven Cottage. My mate didn't make it, as he had a hangover.

Keelo here too. The only one I’ve played squash against, and the only one who’s sorted me out with comps away at Oldham!

Mark Ormerod.

We wouldn’t have a club to support without his saves in 1996/97. Those saves for Tony Agana and Adrian Foster were as important as Reinelt’s goal.

Plus he played guitar in a band.

It has to be the former Dutch Marine for me. Closely followed by ' Perry Digweed goalie in trousers, safe as houses '. I mean he snapped his cock bone for the cause!

 

[Weststander]

Peter grummitt for me , classy keeper

And me, a brilliant keeper. He made his league debut in 1960 age 18, going on to play 100’s games for Forest and Massive across the top two divisions.

Gary Chivers. It was always so exciting when a goalkeeper went off injured, or was sent off, and an outfield player had to pull on the gloves!

 

[Cotton Socks]

No Nicky Rust option, I'm out.

 

[Seagull58]

Where is Brian Powney?

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

Keeley and the FDM for me.

 

[Munkfish]

Not going to be popular on here but Ben Roberts was my favourite ever Brighton keeper.

He was a class above anything else we had at that time.

Mark Ormarod is bottom of that list. Purely because he grassed me and my brother up to our parents for watching Eurotrash.

No Wayne Henderson?

 

[BiffyBoy100]

Nicky Rust has got to be added to the poll.

Didn't he get an England B team call-up? I vaguely remember some prestigious international link.
