Tricky, how's your betting going nowadays? Could you snap him up?

Starts for Bradford today.
Played really well yesterday and deserves recognition. With players pulling out of squads and retiring early or doubts about commitment etc, we should celebrate more the lads who are just happy to be involved as much as possible.

He defo has a good attitude, but to say he played really well is too much

Fair enough, all relative I suppose, I'm judging him on what was expected of him. Played a lot better than some of the outfield players whom a lot more is expected of.
(I must say I watched the first half on a spotty train Internet stream)

I agree in one regard and not to be too dismissive of him, he is going to grasp any international opportunities afforded to him given he's in League One at club level.

He played well.
But he was poor at times when ball went back to him.

I second this. Could be down to nerves.

He kept a clean sheet today anyway for Bradford in a 1-0 win at home to Gillingham.

Aye, his kicking doesn't inspire confidence and was actually a defensive risk at times. Is it always like that or was the Turkey game a one-off?

Has been picked ahead of Danny Rogers for the last while at Kilmarnock making him one of very few Irish keepers playing first team football in the UK at the moment. Unfortunately conceded a goal tonight through one of the worst pieces of goalkeeping I think I've ever seen from a capped Irish keeper. I don't think either of the two Irish keepers have been particularly impressive for Kilmarnock this season unfortunately.

McCarthy, Doyle-Hayes and Jamie Mcgrath all playing in the game also. It's live on the BBC Scotland channel.

Bradford City have taken up the option to extend Colin Doyle’s playing contract by a further year while he remains as goalkeeping coach (Telegraph and Argus, 25 May). Doyle was last capped for Ireland in March 2018. Just wondering -- at 6' 5", was he our tallest ever keeper?
