I told you Holy is a very poor GK 10:17 - Mar 10 with 5091 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.

I did one with Neville Southall.


I used to read Billy The Fish, so I know a lot about goalkeeping as well.

Trust the process. Trust Phil.

Neville and Hans Segars were my idols growing up, fat and short, thought I'd have a chance!

Southall was in Curve, randomly, after some Towun game a few years ago. Maybe when Jim was boss.

He was the size of a shed.

The End.

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.


Were you ever on Pro week at Alsager campus?

Have to say I don't rate either of our keepers neither give me a lot of confidence. COOK brings one in, in the summer I'd be reasonably happy

GK is the first area Cook will look to fix in the summer. I don't rate either of our two current keepers.

I think the main problem with this post is that it ignores how many posts there have already been saying the same thing.

None of them needed to say "I told you", or "I train with..."

They are fans who have watched and reached similar conclusions, then you pop along and think you're onto something.

As for thinking the goalkeepers/trainers you mention are only know to you is just weird. What kind of lunacy is this? "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."

Webster has been at the club for years for pity's sake and you think it's inside specialist info?

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.


Sure, but we can still do better than Holy. For example, Burge (Sunderland), Ingram (Hull), Amos (Charlton) and MacGillivray (Portsmouth) are all better League 1 keeps than Holy.

You would assume that is a position which will be addressed come the summer.
