I told you Holy is a very poor GK 10:17 - Mar 10 with 4987 viewsWhittonBoy

For a 6'7 GK to be beaten by a tame shot from outside the box that isn't in the top corner is criminal. For those that don't agree with me, please take a look at the goals we have conceded over the course of the season. You will note that this is not the only time he should have done better. A lot of the goals he is standing still admiring the ball going past him. We need a GK the likes of Kelvin Davis, Begavic, Wright again because I'm afraid Holy will not get better, he just isn't agile enough to be a good GK.

I stand by my post on here a few weeks back (below).

Being a Semi-Pro GK myself, I analyse every GK performances and I have to say Holy is awful. This may take a few of you by surprise but let me tell you why:
- For his size, he does not command his area at all and often looks scared
- Cannot move his feet
- Reactions are extremely slow
- Bang average shot-stopper
- Bad distribution
- Poor decision maker
- Doesn’t talk
- Loses his head once he makes a mistake

The thing is I don’t think Cornell can is much better either.

He definitely can move his feet. Ive seen them move.

The problem with wanting a Davis, Begovic or Wright again is that we're in League One and Holy is a League One standard keeper.

That is all.

But Whittonboy is a semi-pro keeper, so he knows stuff.

Spot on. If you're very, very lucky you end up with a Dean Henderson like Shrewsbury. But we aren't going to do much better in League One.

This isn't about me.

I've worked with Malcolm Webster, James Hollman and Fred Barber I don't need your approval. If you knew anything about Goalkeepers, you would know who they are.

This comment is about my opinion on Holy and my thoughts behind it.

That was a quality strike for their goal, Holy stood no chance.

You're coming across great. Not at all like an arrogant cock.

If you were so good why couldn't any of them get you into a league two side?

Can you explain how you plan to attract and pay for a keeper of a similar quality to someone who has 63 international caps and 250+ PL appearances to a L1 team sitting 7th?

The responses from the board are right on point when such utter nonsense is posted.

Please move it to the 'I told you so/Look at me/WAAAAH!' section.

I agree with a lot of the sentiment to some extent, just not the aggressive lecturing.

We're in League One and have a League One level GK. Nothing wrong with that.

I think you're broadly correct that Holy has some major flaws in his game, far too often he just doesn't even see shots like yesterday's goal let alone react.

You really need to work at persuading other people of your point of view though.

Point taken. I don't post on here very often and I do get slightly carried away. It's just passion :)
