Ramsdale

[Kaiser Soze]

Employed as a pundit for TNT today.

 

I get he’s injured and can’t play, but surely be amongst the squad rather than use the opportunity to platform your media career

 

Was laughing his head off with Crouchie  & Cole too, not a great look when we just got beat 5-0 at home

 

What a fucking mess

He should never have been there. Who's fault that is, who knows.

I thought he handled the questions quite well given the awkward situation.

[Baird of the land]

Assume he’s already planning his exit strategy.

Linked with Newcastle in the Sun.

[danjosaint]

Makes sense as Dubravka gone to Saudi 

 

[Galway saint]

If he went would clear the way for the return of Irelands No 2 and if there was ever a signing that summed up the SR era it’s Bazanu

[hypochondriac]

I still like Ramsdale but it was a completely pointless signing in hindsight. Will likely make our money back in the summer and will possibly never even remember he played for us in a few years time. 

[Osvaldorama]

Feel sorry for him. 
 

We should let him go in Jan tbh. It will make us even worse but watching a keeper this good behind this defence makes me genuinely sad

I think most people agreed signing him and throwing him into the first team was madness. I know some loons pointed to the fact he'd played for Ireland a few times and one of them was against Portugal but anyone could see depending on a young keeper who'd never played above league one level was mental.

That phrase is all too common these past few seasons. 🙁

It wasn't completely pointless, signing a top 6 quality goalkeeper was a real coup for us. The bigger issue was we neglected to upgrade our defenders from last season and RM's suicidal style destroyed our season before the 1st January

Yes, really we needed 3 more signings of his stature, defender, midfielder and striker, that would have raised the whole team and given us a chance 

[pimpin4rizeal]

Easily the best keeper we have had since niemi,. Our best player imo .. it’s a painful thought that it’s likely we are gonna have to suffer bazunu again next season 

[Saint Fan CaM]

The Newcastle rumour seems to be sticking a bit, but I can’t see him going until the summer. There’s been no news coming out of the club about Bazunu for months now and I’m wondering if the injury and/or recovery is much worse than originally expected. What does that leave us with? McCarthy - as no.1 what does it matter…we’re dead anyway. But what about a decent no.2 / 3?

I'm pretty sure the club had an image of Baz in his training kit recently? Suggesting he's at least working on his fitness. Lumley is out of contract in the summer? McCarthy is just going through the motions at the club. To be honest, I'm never glass half empty but I get the feeling we're going to drop like a stone next season in the Championship. I think the amount of players leaving especially in key departments I just can't see us replacing in time.

Not only, Bazunu, but also the "FFS, is he still here?" McCarthy, will still be here. It's a depressing thought, isn't it?  Newcastle want Ramsdale. At least it proves what a good goalkeeper we signed, even if we didn't know that already. I agree with you, he's the best player we've got. He seems like a great bloke too. I feel sorry for him, being stuck in such a terrible team.

The club were constantly slagged off for not signing a quality keeper then when they finally do, the signing is pointless apparently! Damned if they do, damned if they don’t.
