Davefevs Posted November 13, 2021 Report Share Posted November 13, 2021 Seemed an upgrade on Fielding at the time. Commanded his box better, more decisive. But destroyed by a Catherine Wheel v Brighton. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dolman Pragmatist Posted November 13, 2021 Report Share Posted November 13, 2021 My recollection is that he played for us against Sheff We’d, the club he supported, but appeared to give less than 100%, and was swiftly jettisoned by little Lee. It’s a sad state of affairs when fans can’t remember players who only played three or four seasons ago!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carey 6 Posted November 13, 2021 Report Share Posted November 13, 2021 Never thought he was as good as Fielding, managed to actually have a worse distribution accuracy than FF as well. Celebrated more when we scored though so fans preferred him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUSSEL85 Posted November 13, 2021 Report Share Posted November 13, 2021 He was pretty average, had better keepers and had much worse. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gillies Downs Leeds Posted November 13, 2021 Report Share Posted November 13, 2021 For attacking corners, I recall that he would be near as damn it on the halfway line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottishRed Posted November 13, 2021 Report Share Posted November 13, 2021 He was yet another one that was touted as the replacement for Frankie. As I recall he started well enough and, as mentioned above, did command his box way better than Frankie. Then it all faded away thanks to that goal against Brighton.....

ashton_fan Posted November 14, 2021 Report Share Posted November 14, 2021 (edited) He started off really well but was one of those keepers who was brilliant while confident but once he made an error it would usually be followed by another. Also tended to try and blame others when he made a mistake - I remember this happening at Wolves where he let in a late soft goal which he should have gathered then tried to blame Wilbraham, he was close to getting punched in that moment.

Davefevs Posted November 14, 2021 Report Share Posted November 14, 2021 @Clevedon Redwe went to that game Joe Bryan in midfield, a skinny Dominic Iorfa at RB for Wolves. Wagstaff started his first game in ages from memory. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good summary. If you look at his whole career he’s basically a L1 keeper, who had a run in our side because Frankie got injured but his form was really erratic, we have definitely had worse but not good enough for us longer term. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was suggested that, at the moment Sidwell shot, RO'D was not watching the game, but, rather, was looking up at the sky at the spectacular firework display going off outside the stadium.
