pete 2,499 Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 Totally no idea how anyone can think Wes is better than Alnwick and I said that on the podcast last season. After the double save against Kilmarnock and the fact that Alnwick also comes to cut out crosses it is a no brainer for me. Alnwick is just a better keeper. That is just my opinion but I am glad to see that Stevie G has come to the same opinion. It is not a money reason at all, Alnwick is just better. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't rate Alnwick -- I'd like to see McCrorie get the #2 spot. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a no-brainer that Wes is just better. A couple of saves in a one-off game does not mean he's better than a 'keeper that played virtually every meaningful game. I also think it's a fallacy that Wes doesn't come out to crosses; he maybe didn't in the past, but he was decent enough last season at that. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are entitled to your opinion but it looks like the coaching team agree with me. Foderingham is not a good keeper. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foderingham is not a good keeper. We don't actually know yet. McGregor is #1, I would assume, and the rumours of Alnwick being ahead of Wes are just that, rumour. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going with lasts night selection it's a high possibility McCrorie is being considered as the back up. Was surprised Alnwick wasn't brought on Infront of him. Definitely posses the question of who's number two. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't say no to a few million! I'm not actually arguing he (Foderingham) is a 'good 'keeper', merely that he's better than Alnwick. That's just my opinion. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonzo79 15,292 Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 From what I've heard, Wes wants to go back to England. I think Alnwick is mediocre and hope McCrorie is No.2. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
