Bedminster Born And Red Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 Thumbs up or Thumbs down for "Flapper" on Saturday? On the positive side he did play 300 games for us and proved himself to be a more than capable shot stopper. On the flip side he did play 150 games for "them". But he did make one "rather decent" penalty save in a City shirt once if my memory serves me correctly!! I think he'll only make the bench though.

slartibartfast Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 Think I remember reading that he leapt around like a demented kangaroo when Crewe scored that late late pen ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bedminster Born And Red Posted April 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 I know that he wasn't a great fan of GJ. With some justification I might add. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One BCFC Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 He is gas, no. GJ had him spot on, thought he was better than he was then went to the dark side... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoldenBall Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 Think I remember reading that he leapt around like a demented kangaroo when Crewe scored that late late pen !

Robbored Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 Wears Number 1 but is on the bench at the moment I think. Lost his place? He'll be whinging and giving off sour vibes to anyone who'll listen to him. If he doesn't get back in then he'll be looking to move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dynamite Red Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 His last season I expect before joining Crewe's coaching team due to persistent shoulder problems. Fir me it is not that he went to the Gas it was his general attitude before and after leaving us. He has made his bed and will be greeted accordingly.

BS15_RED Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 Never forget him bowing to the sags and giving them the we're not worthy when he came back for the JPT game at the Gate. A total "James Blunt" as far as I'm concerned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiwicolin Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 Sorry it's a thumbs down for us. He chucked his toys out of the pram when Basso was there. Hasn't done anything since he left us. Won't be clapping him on Saturday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciderup Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 More interested in saying goodbye to Marv, Fonts and Louis TBH. As far as I'm concerned, Flapper is gas so he can do one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pongo88 Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 He had / has a few behaviour problems and tantrums but so what? He seems to be like many on the forum. I enjoy the spats on the forum so I will welcome him back as a typical City supporter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gillies Downs Leeds Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 Spot on Robbo. I'll never forget how he totally blanked Basso when he got the no 1 slot - wouldn't even take part in the warm ups with him. Not whinging at all. He is very happy still being involved in the game, has been coaching Liverpool's Academy keepers and more importantly has raised thousands and thousands of pounds for various charities in the last couple of years.

Northern Red Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 He's a cock. My abiding memory is at the end of the 7-1 drubbing at Swansea, Tinnion was sat in the dugout on his own, visibly distraught at what had happened and knowing he was about to lose his job, and Flapper walked past giving him dogs abuse. He then spat the dummy as soon as GJ dropped him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could have been giving him dogs abuse, But maybe he was venting frustration at the shower in front of him caving in - no keeper likes to let in seven, let alone a professional one. There was more to that Johnson situation than meets the eye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
