does anyone think that elliot desveres a start... but Bavs has been good apart from one or two mistakes. but has kept us in some games....
 
Yes I do.

But Bavs kept us in it at Mansfield in the League and kept the damage down with some inspired saves not least with his foot at Grimsby.
 
all keepers keep you in games. No matter how bad (apart from Crichts) you will still make saves. IT IS WHY YOU ARE THERE. Even Bossu made a couple of saves until he 'threw' the game.

What is the point of having a perfectly good keeper (Rob was brilliant last year) sat on the bench if he is not being allowed to push the guy in charge of the no 1 shirt? Make a mistake you are out, and may take a while to get the shirt back, all keepers know and understand that so the motivation is there not to make mistakes. Bavs however is leading a charmed existence. Good as he may have been in games, he has still cost us in at least three games this season with mistakes. Rob should play until he too costs us three points.
 
Bavo for me everytime sorry Macca. We are all agreed that Coley is a football genius and he must see something in Rob in training that makes him think Bav is the better keeper and that's good enough for me. I agree that keepers will always make saves but similarly they will make mistakes. Bav has saved us more times than he's let us down this season and with the Defence on the back foot he has to make more saves than most keepers in the league.

well after todays performance i think its time coley put rob in the net...
Bavs couldnt command the area at all. he shouts too much... and the layers end up arguing with him. whereas rob is always in control of the denfence
 
yes everyone sings bavs`s praises when he keeps us in games and makes tremendous saves but when he makes a few mistakes everyones against him its rediculous! Bavs all the time for me , two good goal keepers but id rather pick bavs over elliot! :D
 
I actually said a few weeks ago that Dunbavin was costing us goals and I was subjected to abuse on the forum. However, the trend continues and he does cost us goals due to his lack of decision making and silly mistakes. I'm not sure why he is chosen in front of Elliott. It doesn't make sense.

All I can think is that Elliott is not performing well in training, or he isn't really fit enough to play. I know he has been overweight and perhaps he isn't showing enough commitment during the week? There must be some reason why he isn't playing.
 
Tin monkey it is the defence aswell , sometimes bavs makes great decisions and makes amazing saves but sometimes makes mistakes, everyone makes mistakes and just because hes cost us a few goals doesnt mean he should be sub`d! So if elliot comes in for bavs and makes even more mistakes what are we gunna do then! Buy another goalkeeper!
 
well we have 3 keepers.. so perhaps when Francois Dubourdean comes back from loan he might play. Never seen him play before but he sounds good from what i have heard about him !:)
 
its gotta be bavs for me he wasnt at fault for the goals yesterday it was the defence daydreaming again again they just watched the mkdons player go past them and then dived in when it was too late............yesterday just showed the defence has no pace .any team with a bit of pace just picks us off at will...just look at the goals we have conceded at home. our team need lessons on concentration as well cause we had the game for the taking......
 
well said cmon stanley! It is the defence and now lost rocky aswell it going to be hard for accrington`s defence
 
in times like this is when gems are unearthed when they usually wouldnt be played a new hero beckons..[i hope]........

I think you have answered all your own questions.

Re: Stanley v MK Dons, goals from the championship.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thanks REDASH...Sorry to rake the mud,but couldn't help but notice another poor effort by DUNBAVIN when clearing the ball as Williams chopped down the Dons player.All the time,all the space in the world and he returns it straight back at the fallen Dons bloke .It could've richoched(sp) into goal or to another opposition player.I have to wonder about this fella when I read about and see his kicking game.Surely its time for a change?

I have to agree with Tin Monkey. I thought Bavs was seriously at fault for at least two of the goals yesterday - and it's not the first time! I admire the lad's shotstopping, but his basic problem is that he just isn't big enough to command his area, which is probably why he's never made it before. Shrewsbury found out, Scarborough found out, maybe Halifax did too, which might have made them that bit keener to open the door for his disciplinary exit.I know he's scouse, which counts for a lot at the FES, but isn't it time our management team found out too ?
 
In my opinion Coleman has lost the plot when it comes to this matter. How many more errors and dropped points will we have to suffer before he gets dropped. Won't belong before Charlton realize he will be much better of sitting on their own bench and then thats another genuine quality player lost. This has beome almost farcical now.
