On a brighter note i think State Benefit could be a potential novice chaser to follow this season, i hope he gets off to a good start in the 1.10 at Fontwell.
The second coming, are we talking about Bruce Grobbelaar?
Dear old Brucie - if he was a race horse you knoiw exactly which stable he'd have been signed up to......
He was one hell of a keeper though. Just a thought, who has been the best No 1 in the last 20 or 30 years?
I suppose that means it's only a matter of time before we get it
Hate the snow.Let us know when it starts falling off your tits.
Globally? Difficult, you'll probably get half a dozen different answers. Certainly not Grobbelaar IMHO. Don't particularly like the guy, but you'd have to put Ollie Kahn* right up there? Have to study last 30-years a bit first.
*Mad as a hatter on the pitch, but now, in retirement, a calm, composed, and highly intelligent football moderator on German TV. A real Jekyll and Hyde character.
Buffon's decent but i always though Pagliuca before him was a better keeper. Cassilas is very good but he doesn't really get noticed much - doesn't need to in those teams I s'pose Always thought Seaman never quite got the credit he deserved either.
Always thought Seaman never quite got the credit he deserved either.surely the old brazilian keeper taffarel has to be up there with the best keepers. he was fantastic in his day and very very few stupid "keeper" moments.
Been reading about a bloke called Lev Yashin. From what I read, some consider him the greatest of all time. Long time ago though.
Very goo indeed but ee was boring though - the best thing about the old Brazillian teams was they always had a really bad comedy keeper - then they started cheating and brought in someone good.
That's about 8 goalies already! Yashin was probably the greatest of them all, but outside your 30-year period (played exclusively for Moscow Dynamo between 1950 and 1970). Seppy Maier was a world class keeper (and a world class clown too) but not the best ever I would say. Same era as Gordon Banks who was a terrific keeper also (remember that incredible save against Pele in a Mexico World Cup?).
