Title: felt sorry for there keeper
Post by: Alex on September 09, 2007, 01:14:53 AM
after the match when we were walking round to collect the brushes to clean up saw him sat on the bench head in his hands (may have been crying) because of and alcoholic bully jim smith (either that or he didn't like what was shouted towards him in the first half). still felt sorry for him, he was rubbish but also lucky kind of like the real madrid keeper who is just a shot stopper and punches everything never catches but get's away with it.

admittedly the lad had a bad game but hey that happens increasingly often to me. any keeper who makes a mistake at moss lane gets called dodgy keeper, and most of the stuff is the norm here, but there was the 1 prick who was stood behind me who insisted on bollocking him with harsh comments

Did you get a description of this "prick"?

I only ask because I was winding him up yesterday and rattled him as well.  When the manager states in the paper that "the lad Tardif is Ok but he can't catch crosses" its hard likely to fill him with confidence and any advantage we can gain can help.

We give him a real boost by not crossing it until 50 minutes so someone had to do something.

I think we need  to condone this sort of vile behaviour it just will not be tolerated :-

If you think about it really, he got no more stick then any other keeper does when they are at moss lane.
If you ask me he probably got a mouth full of that Wiskey drinking alcoholic that is the oxford manager?

to be perfectly honest, oxford didnt do themselves any good by openly publicising that their keeper was crap at crosses. Alty capalised on it throughout the games (both fans AND players).

I believe that he had been told in the Dressing Room after the match that he had been released

Bit harsh that.
he was obviously nervous due to everyone knowing a particular weakness, but was not at fault for our goal, as a great strike from sedge.

He was poor and flapped at every high ball, but shot stopping wise was decent and telling him he was released iN the dressing room away from home with a long drive ahead after the ecstacy of a win is bloody harsh...JIM SMITH YOU B#8TARD!!!

Yes, I was amazed at Smiths comments actually. It just put undue pressure on him,  like Ecky said, normally a manager would go 'well I'll have to put the young lad in, hes inexperienced but hes perfectly capable'

I mean, we didn't know he was sh*t on crosses, we'd barely have given him that much stick normally. There was a huge collective roar every time we had a corner. And to be honest, I'm not sure the players would have known either. We hardly put any crosses in as it was, God knows how few we'd have put in if Smith said he'd been good! What it did for his defenders as well I'm not sure.

I actually didn't think he was the worst keeper I'd ever seen, a bot shaky but you bloody would be wouldn't you. Prob wouldn't have noticed if this hadn't all been mentioned. Smith just being a wanker imo.

I too saw the lad sat looking really upset after the game, if it was that Smith had just told him he was releasing him, then thats out of order.
Dont think any of the Oxford side earned their money really yesterday, definitely not promotion contenders.

Perhaps Connett should get some balls over at Vics, and tell his keeper he's crap and is being released too!  ;)

Good luck for the rest of the season.
