I think Pope is rapidly becoming a huge liability. His decision making is appalling. Punches rather than catches, comes out for suicide balls and I've seen 7 year old keepers with better footwork.
A Scotsman talking about goalkeepers, you just couldn’t make it up.

Given was terrible at kicking aswell, and commanding his box.

Great shot stopper but nothing more than that, if we are being honest.
 
Given was always overrated...
Hard to tell, was a different time and facing different tactics. Lot more crosses and whipped in balls to deal with back then in addition to 2 strikers most games with most deploying a big man/small man combo. For me I'd have him as the best.

I like Nick Pope but his kicking is becoming more erratic, his decisions to run out for balls that are going nowhere anyway is crazy and I'm noticing more and more him being rooted to the spot.
 
Let's be real! Only Newcastle fans would get a hard on over an adidas sports shop opening. It should therefore be no surprise that they don't win anything.

You're doing that Trump thing again Roy.

TBF I've not been in it but judging by the videos I've seen, they've basically put up a telly screen, made a lego version of the tyne bridge and blown everybody's mind by changing the Castore logo's for Adidas ones <laugh>
