Butlands promising and the flavour of the month. If ruddy doesn't get a half I'll put my fist through the telly. Apart from getting sold to Liverpool for a ridiculous amount of money there's not a lot more ruddy can do. He's awesome, we all know it, and if the FA can't then they can suck our collective balls. It's going to take decades before we can fix the damage the FA has done to the game.
I , as many others, said a year ago if Ruddy has a successful season he will be knocking on England door. I think Howson will be doing it a year from now too.
Your right with the John ruddy plays for "little old norwich" bit, but wrong with the JB playing the entire game bit as Barton is suspended
You don't mind the occasional interloper gatecrashing a thread - although it does help if what they have to say makes some kind of sense
It annoys me too. If your going to have a pop at least have it make sense and for the love of god, try not to tumbleweed. This guys managed both! It's like when people say "I hope delia doesn't overcook the pies" or whatever It doesn't annoy me that they've said something about delia or whatever, say what you like, it annoys me that you can tell they GENUINELY believe that delia cooks all the pies at carrow road. I mean, just do the maths people, it's not possible. I could say "I hope your nameless faceless foreign conglomerate doesn't make business decisions that are a detriment to the uk economy" or "I hope your oil rich family doesn't percecute minorities and stifle free speech while conserving all their country of origins wealth while the populous struggles to feed their families" But I don't.
Bit harsh Beef, I think the guy was only attempting a bit of banter, suggesting JB was relating to Joey Barton rather than Butland. Ok, it was crap banter, but harmless nonetheless and for once it wasn't about any nonsense stereotype.
Pitch forks and torches at the ready, we descend on FA headquarters as one! I'm on the brink of giving up on England, ruddy not playing atall will seal that!
Playing against some of the best teams in the world, improving your game exponentially, doesn't cut it with England. There is a complete lack of respect of our club and our players. It's sickening. I don't think an England squad will ever be selected on ability ever again.
I'm going to play devils advocate here, what of Ruddy is still at the tail end of his recovery from tw broken finger and Norwich have asked that he only trains with the squad or remains a substitute for when it's only necessary? Absolutely disgraceful if the above isn't relevant though. If you're going to start a player who's only played league 2 games why not play Clyne, Zaha, or even me? I could do a better job than a lot of the players from 5000 miles away! There are probably a few league 2 players that are better than Butland!
It's also times like this I'm glad I don't have British TV available to me. But then again they now have Dixon so the punditry may be better!
Ridiculous. Aside from three or four games in the Olympics, he's never played above league two. Hopefully Ruddy will get at least the second half and will play infinitely better than Butland
He actually said he hoped to use both and that John might come on in the second half. Its by no means certain he'll play him
