Any chance ye'll take Robbie back aswell!!!!

I'm convinced the only reason he's still with
us is because he gives Eric a lift to training!

Better than Billy the Fish. No Way. C'mon, be sensible now.:D

I'd say keeper's at clubs with poor form always look good because they have so many saves to make in every match! :D

You made an approach at the end of last season, and both club and player had pleasure in telling Doolin where to go. :)

Quigley's a quality keeper - maybe not the best (i.e. as good as Bazza), but well up there. He has an occasional bad game, but in general, his handling and shot stopping is superb. Five clean sheets in a row now.

Don't know how people can say Forde is the most talented keeper in the league when he flaps at anything that comes into his box at a height of more then 5 feet.

Quigley is also a comfortable kicker with both feet. He's good at keeping the ball in play when kicking an unexpected back pass or rushing out to intercept a through ball.

Don't think you'll find a Pats fan who doesn't think Barry Ryan is quality, I've been trying to think of his faults and I can't.

Shall we put it a poll?

Forde is dodgy, Shels keepers are both dodgy, O'Connor is over-eccentric.

That being said. I've never seen young Pat Jennings do anything wrong :)

I can't comment on the others, but Barry Ryan is definately up there. Quigley's got potential but isn't there yet (has blown hot and cold this year) and Jennings, while solid enough, isn't in Ryan's league.

Derrys keeper is poor, doesn't command the area and his positioning / judgement / communication sre a bit crap tbh.
Though I watched Roma last night and their keeper was dire.

Still saved a pen. No point in poll as some will just vote for their own keeper regrdless
