I’d be amazed if this was the case.

Honestly he's not injured

Hes been fit to play for weeks

Which makes this all the more baffling

I thought Binks was left footed... why try to clear it with his right???? put your fucking boot through it ffs!!!

 

[fatso]

You didn't answer my question

Once we've got into the top 6 the other results are pretty much irrelevant, MR paid for the poor start by getting the sack,
Once we got into the top 6 the outcome of the entire season was in our own hands, when you get where you want to be, you have to stay there.
The results at Derby, Plymouth and Luton have put the season on a knife edge.
How we failed to get at least 4 points from those 9 is absolutely beyond me.

Frank has to take some responsibility for sticking with Collins and Simms who are woefully out of form.

 

[Cally Fedora]

It’s actually more for his mental health that Collins needs dropping. He’s patently a busted flush confidence wise and it’s unfair to keep selecting him. He’s basically cost us 10-12 points single handedly.

 

[robbiethemole]

the most stupid thing there is Kitch won the header, if Collins stops on his line he picks the fucking ball up and it's done!!!!
I hate the c**t with a passion

 

[Lionelr]

Keeper woes continue, however we have looked poor going forward the last 4/5 matches, maybe excluding West Brom. As in no real structure to the play, direction. We went through a period where it was really clear, the ball is slowed right down, played out wide, cross comes in… goal. That seems to have gone and now we’re having to pounce when the other teams make an error

 

[northstander]

Best player on the pitch today according to fotmob...

 

[robbiethemole]

Lampard refuses to comment on single p[layers?? Well Frank we do and we know Collins is fucking wank and a liability and you MUST stop picking the wanker

I trust, but if that is the case then someone in the media needs to ask the question. We’re not being told something. We can all see it, so there’s no way Frank doesn’t.

 

[pusbccfc]

At what point does Collins tell Frank himself that he's not up for it?

The uncomfortable truth is that he did have a good game before throwing it all away

Second this. I asked him after West Brom if he was fit and ready to go, he said yes. So unless he was lying, you can't fathom out the reason behind keeping Collins in. It genuinely cannot be good for the player himself.

With Brad you can just feel it coming (in the air tonight)

Or formation away from home?

 

[fatso]

Formation and tactics are completely irrelevant if you have a disaster in goal.

 

[The Reverend Skyblue]

I swear on my life, I would rather have Gemma Collins in goal for the Boro match

 

[The Reverend Skyblue]

And for the playoff semi. If I see the cunit in goal for us ever again I’m going to fucking give up and start taking crack cocaine everyday for the rest of my life
How our last two managers, both ex pros who have played for two of the biggest clubs in Europe , think that twat is a good enough goalkeeper to play above Sunday village football level , let alone championship level, I just don’t understand.
I’m just don’t understand it, I really dont

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

Beyond anger now, how many times can he let us down and get away with it.

 

[Adge]

And he probably won't, so everyone will be happy.

Including himself!

 

[SkyblueTexan]

We have reached point, where Tyler or Bell are legit options instead of collins. Its gone to far now, for his own career and mental sake.

No one is saying Wilson is the saviour, but hes a better bet than collins currently, who's shot. Genuinely dont think he would save any shot currently. cant imagine what the team think.........

It has to be Wilson on saturday, purely to change the narrative if nothing else, we may loose, likely concede, but cant continue with Collins anymore.

Been saying this like a broken record for weeks now. How Collins continues to start is beyond me.

 

[Bernie Rhodes Nose]

I’d rather have a Collins English dictionary in goal

Good shout. We were all lost for words in the end.

It's baffling and frustrating they keep on picking this clown.

 

[SkyblueTexan]

Simms is another donkey who’s probably glad Collins’ is in goal so that nobody notices how hopeless he is upfront. He (not Saka) should have been subbed off after the red card.

Agree with you on that own, keep on hoping Simms will come good but he's got worse .

 

[skyblue_55]

Might have been mentioned before , but Wilson is doing the warm up & kicking , so why isn’t he between the sticks ????

 

[skybluelee]

And he probably won't, so everyone will be happy.

Yeah but what about Brad’s feelings?

 

[Sick Boy]

Might have been mentioned before , but Wilson is doing the warm up & kicking , so why isn’t he between the sticks ????

I imagine it’s because we’d need to change our approach to games to accommodate him because his distribution is dreadful….and he’s not very good either.

Because Collins is so good how he not in the England blind team is beyond me.

 

[eastwoodsdustman]

He had a really good game yesterday up until his brain fart at the end.
How many times has he come out to catch the ball there before? I can’t recall him doing it.
I think he must be all over the shop mentally in games and looks like it before and after matches.
There must be something not right with Wilson too for him not to play. Either he is fit or he isnt. If he is fit enough come off the bench in an injury situation then why not from the start?

 

[Para1140]

go to 7.28 and guess who the keeper was for FGR that day against Luton

 

[JimmyHillsbeard]

Rinse and repeat.
Collins’ confidence is completely shot.
He refuses to catch the ball under the bar and tries to fist it away, often this is inappropriate and puts us under unnecessary pressure.
He is desperately trying to reset the narrative and command his area. However his self-doubt has robbed him of all judgement. Consequently he charges far too far out far too early in an attempt to collect balls that he has no hope of getting. THIS HAPPENED FOR BOTH BURNLEY GOALS (even though he wasn’t solely at fault for either).

Yesterday he had no business charging out for that ball. It’s a mystifying decision and only happens to keepers trying to overcompensate. Regardless of the fact that even if Kitching loses the header it doesn’t put us in real danger, HE WASN’T EVEN ATTEMPTING TO CATCH THE BALL - a punched clearance could have gone directly to a Luton player with him significantly off his line.

As I said after Burnley, persisting with him is an act of self-harm for the club and is destroying him too.

It looks to me like Brad suffers from anxiety.As a sportsman he won’t be allowed to use Beta-Blockers etc.This is on Frank and the his team as much as on Brad himself.Do the right thing and take him out the firing line for his own good.This pile on and the personal abuse directed at Brad,is a f***ing disgrace from so called supporters.Give the lad a break.

 

[clint van damme]

I imagine it’s because we’d need to change our approach to games to accommodate him because his distribution is dreadful….and he’s not very good either.

Let's stick with the fella that costs us at least a goal every two games then

He got great support yesterday and at Albion, (I wasn't at Plymouth so don't know about there).

But football supporters wanting a player costing them points dropped isn't really a pile on.

I’ve said that at this point I’d play Wilson but I can understand why they’re also reluctant to.
