He was good, but past it when he came to us. Just reading his book - great read and he certainly wasn't your typical footballer.

It doesn't surprise me at all that they are struggling to get 30 people to travel over 600 miles to pay £20 to watch their team, in all likelihood, get narrowly beaten by a slightly superior side, I mean, would you?

Their website is worth a visit, considerably better than anything else I've seen down at that level (no large white spaces, plenty of useful content etc, probably better than the sh*t the FL make us have, if I'm honest). Interesting to see, however, that they call their ground a 'stadium'... :~D

Matt.
Could learn a thing or too from there website.

Re: Are Our Young Goalkeepers Off?

Anyone have a fixture list of where, when and who our young teams play? May pop along to watch. After all they are part if our club and deserve our support I think.

Re: Ricey or Pokey

Both great guys. Bevan better than both in my opinion. But bobby the best by a country mile. Best keeper I have ever seen for us in my 50 years as a fan.

Re: Are Our Young Goalkeepers Off?

Speaking to a respected coach recently he explained that clubs look for size first in young goalkeepers as they can teach technique if they get them young enough. He said that one of our young keepers is already 5 foot 6 and just left primary school - hence the interest probably.

Are Our Young Goalkeepers Off?

Interesting comment on the Argyle Forum about some of our 11 and 12 year old goalies being scouted by the big clubs. Worrying news for us if true but guess it shows our youth system is doing a good job with the young lads.
