Re: The goalkeeper situation
 

just returned to the UK after touring the Stanley headgear in Canada/Alaska and am busy catching up on all things Stanley. Thanks for the comments on the perfomance against Burnley, Wynonie. On the goal-keeping issue - perhaps there's stuff I've yet to read - but notice that an International goalie and experienced top flight defender are possibly in Jamie's testimonial on July 24th. Is this too simple or d'ya reckon the official site news item has given the clue. After all, they are both in Coley country and I wouldn't be surprised if Mike Marsh was wooed by John over a casual pint somewhere in scouseland !

Re: The goalkeeper situation
 

Just to lighten up the Goalkeeper situation a joke I found on the web....

Carlo Cudicini was walking down the street one day when he heard screams from a nearby building. He looked up to see smoke billowing from a fourth story window with a woman leaning out holding a baby.

"Help, help!" she screamed, "I need someone to catch my baby!"

A crowd of onlookers had gathered, but no one was confident of catching a baby dropped from such a great height. Then Cudicini stepped forward.

"I’m the Chelsea goalkeeper,” he shouted to the woman. "I’m famous for my safe hands. Drop the baby, for me it will be like catching a ball"

And with that he adopts the classic goalkeepers stance - legs apart and slightly bent at the knees, body slightly bent forward at the waist and with his arms stretched downwards at a slight angle away from his body, with palms facing forward.

"OK!" screams the woman. "I'll trust you. I've no choice! Here she comes!"

So, with the flames roaring all around her, the woman throws the baby from the window. However, the edge of the baby's shawl catches on the woman's watch with the result that the child goes spinning off to one side, tumbling head over heels and with her little arms and legs flailing.

The woman screams and the crowd gasps, all sure that the baby will perish because she will fall out of reach of the man.
Cudicini remains motionless as the child descends, spinning and tumbling further and further away from him as she comes. Then when the baby is only feet from hitting the ground Cudicini dives a full 30 feet across the pavement, catches the baby in his outstretched right hand, pulls her in towards his chest and shields her body with his left hand and arm.

The crowd erupts with cheers and the woman, still in danger herself, nearly faints with relief. Cudicini, still clutching the child to his chest in his right arm, waves to the crowd of onlookers to acknowledge their appreciation. Then, slowly and gracefully, he turns away from them, bounces the baby twice on the ground, and kicks her 60 yards down the road.

Call that a joke Bazf? ;) :D

Just going back on topic for a moment, I thought Allcock looked ok again tonight. He seems very assured and what little had to do, he seemed to do very well.

Re: The goalkeeper situation
 

Very true T.M. I'm beginning to warm to him already.

Re: The goalkeeper situation
 

He was good in what little he had to do, even their "near misses", I'm sure he had them covered. But what happened to the "trialist" ex-international? Along with the midfielder? Did Fearon cock it up by revealing all too soon?

Re: The goalkeeper situation
 

wasnt me who cocked up it was the club.....
David May was meant to be training with Stanley and playing 2nite but he hasnt turned up and they cant get in touch... kevin pressman has just signed for leiscster 2day.....
