    Goalkeeper options

    Do we have any option in the absence of Given (now seemingly becoming more injury prone)? Kenny scored a nice OG last night (shame for Sheff Utd ), Deano is doing ok at WBA, Colgan is at mighty Barnsley? Any other options? Darren Randolph on loan at Bury from Charlton. Doyle (Birmingham) - don't think he's getting a game there or is he? Not forgetting Joe Murphy (Scunthorpe).

    Looks a bit bleak if Given isn't fit.
    Forget about the performance or entertainment. It's only the result that matters.

    Kenny was probably man of the match last night and that goal was very very unlucky.
    In Trap we trust

    Exactly. Dont get blinkered by the fact he scored an OG. It was a freak goal he could do nothing about. He was excellent for the rest of the game

    Ipswich sent Shane Supple on loan to Falkirk to get some experience and he's been sitting on the bench. Was reading in the paper the other day that Jim Magilton isn't happy with this.

    Kenny was class last night but my mate seems to think both him and Kiely have packed it in. (I think they might have).

    Kiely has for sure but i think Kenny is all clear after his personal problems during the last campaign. Looks better too with the extra hair.

    Goalkeeper motm against 'Boro Didn't see the game but doubt if he was too busy.

    I have obviously seen a fair bit of Kenny and he is probably the 2nd best keeper we have but unfortunately that's not saying much. He can be ordinary at times and then produce a stunning save out of the blue (or should I say red?).

    Sh!t but the rest of the team were no better. One bad game does not mean he has to be deleted from the face of the earth now does it?

    Agreed he played well but thought his reactions were painfully slow, he had already given up on the first shot and then when it came to him off the post he was not in a position to deal with.

    well done great comment, Yes I expect a keeper to get to his feet as quickly as possible, it is a major part of their training. Your name sums you up by the looks of things.

    Thanks for the feedback. I appreciate it.I dont think we as a nation get enough of praise for our hard work. Anyhow tell me what keeper would have saved it or have you just got a chip on your shoulder in regard to poor Paddy?
