mcbcfc Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 A mate of mine who's at uni in liverpool said there's a rumour goin round that young everton keeper John Ruddy will be signing on loan till January.A decent signing, he has some league expirence and England under 19 capsGJ said he had players in mind to bring in till November and with our links with Moyes could be true Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redhyde Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 I don't see why Ruddy would come to sit on the bench here when he's already got experiance.I suppose it'd be better than not sitting on the bench at Everton but i'd thought he'd want match experiance.

Dan C Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 If It was Ruddy he would not just sit on the bench. He would provide serious competition for Basso. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
next_year_I_hope Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 good shout and if i remember correctly if we are losing put basso in goal and he can play up front.(sure he started has forward with cambridge) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redhyde Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 If It was Ruddy he would not just sit on the bench. He would provide serious competition for Basso.That's what GJ will say too, to us and to him while reassuring AB that his plaace is no way under threat until Weale gets fit.I can't see any loan keeper coming in and displacing a contracted one, it rarely ever happens.

GrahamC Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 Likely to be fourth choice at Everton next season so a distinct possible, I'd have thought.Johnson is talking about getting someone on loan until November and he seems to fit the bill.

The better player should always be selected but when have any of the myriad of loan keepers come in and actually displaced Phillips or whoever?We've had Boaz Myhill and Ben Foster here and neither despite having more pedigree and better futures in the game have got in the team.It's not worth upsetting a contracted Goalkeeper by putting a loanee ahead of them. It just doesn't happen much. Unless it's for a year or something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barrs Court Red Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 City have had a loan keeper between the sticks, it was during the mid 90's and his name escapes me. City didn't sign him due to the fee involved and he now plays in Scotland.He wasn't English if that helps jog any memories regarding his name Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Casual Connoisseur Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 Not at all impressed with Baso in the slightest and I am not convinced that if thi skid does come that he will be second choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walshy Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 Ruddy is quality. I've seen him play for his old club Cambridge. I was going to suggest we signed him a couple of weeks ago, but thought he wouldn't want to drop down to our division.Hes 6ft 4 and David Moyes reckons he's a future England keeper.

SC&T Board Members Blagdon red Posted July 20, 2006 SC&T Board Members Report Share Posted July 20, 2006 Ruddy coming sounds like a good shout judging from GJ's latest comments on the main site:"I think we'll be taking the option of a keeper from a big club with English experience. It'll be a loan up until around Christmas time, then the keeper can go back to his Premiership club and Chris Weale should be fit to challenge Adriano Basso."Seems to tie in exactly with the original post on this thread.

It just doesn't happen much. Unless it's for a year or something like that.Thats because we have had managers such as "best mates Wilson" who never dropped players such as Philips or Peacock no matter what they did.Johnson should have competition all over the park, and if Basso makes a mistake he should expect to find himself on the bench.

TomBCFCUK Posted July 20, 2006 Report Share Posted July 20, 2006 Just speaking to my mate whose a Evertonian and i brought the conversation up about Ruddy and he stated "He's good, played once in the first team like, made a few good saves. Was rated really highly when he signed last year from Cambridge. Big lad, shouts alot."But he hasnt heard anything about this.Sounds promising, expecially after Johnsons quote about a Keeper from the Premiership!Would love to see him here next season....TomBC#### Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
