It's impossible to put a figure on it. A goalkeeper is just one part of a team.

It was 7 minutes before Peretz decided to go down and make it even longer. He wasn't particularly bad. Especially if you view his performance through neutral eyes.

Mine is over fifteen. It's starting to need more maintenance.

To be sure.

Them's the Laws.

That's my point.

Charles trod on Torp's right foot. Accidental or not it's still a foul. Maybe in future he won't get so tight on a played who's running away from goal.

I don't need to explain why they're childish. You're doing that for me.

If we'd have carried on playing five at the back not a lot different.

Better teams?

Me? He's an ok keeper hut someway short of fantastic. We got lucky today or maybe it was a reward for his positioning. Comparisons with Baz are beyond childish since a) he's injured b) on loan somewhere else and c) unlikely to be seen playing for us again. If by some miracle we do get promoted we're going to need a lot better but for now he'll do.

Great positioning

It's a lot more than that. The return of Bree and the change to a back four are more important.

No it wasn't. Torp manufactured it by sticking his leg out but his foot was trodden on.

I wasn't expecting that, to be honest.

Never in doubt 😏

Stupid time for a stupid substitution.

That could have happened even in training.

Troo dat. Technically though we could draw the cup games and go through on penalties. 😚

Old gits like me. I fully understand those who prefer to stand and indeed there once was a time when I would have been in amongst them but the ravages of time have taken their toll on my knees. That's why I am reluctant to go to away games unless I can be assured of a seat. And a view to go with it.

Saka will be shaking in his boots. Shaking Saka. It has a ring to it.

I've been there a few times on a day visit. It’s filmed in the town of Des Haies on the west coast of Guadeloupe. We even hired a car there and drove around the west half. It’s a French Department of course and hence part of the EU. I don't think there are any direct flights from the UK.

We've been to most of them but not Jamaica. Antigua used to be my favourite and we stayed at the Rex Halcyon Cove on Dickenson Bay a few times amongst others. It has now been bought out and is being reconstructed which has destroyed a few of my wonderfully happy memories with my wife. Barbados had lately become our favourite and I would agree with Gloucester Saint about Rockley Beach. There are several restaurants around there and the Reggae Buses run regularly into town. Barbados is perhaps more built up with three times the population of Antigua. When I get a few moments I shall try to post some photos and videos.

Clean sheet. Luvverly business.

No. He was offside because VAR was brought in. Over the history of the game such decisions have been left to the Assistant.
