Keepers don't have to be ugly, or do dandruff ads either. I reckon 1.91m is a great height for a keeper, much taller and you can lose speed and agility, shorter and like Gordon Banks you need brilliant ability and anticipation to compensate. I'm 1.91 but that was probably the best aspect of my goalkeeping. When you see Fulton play, watch how quick his feet are. If he can move back under a ball easily, if he positions himself quickly .......... The feet are even more telling than the hands for a keeper IMO.
I still feel very negative over the decision to play Tommy at Bradford. We had nothing to gain.
I'm also worried that losing Angel again could give us all the same problems as last season, but of course if Dancing is right and this is Ollie Banks time he is obviously a player with potential (which is why he's frustrating).
The second keeper we sign will be interesting. Personally, rather than going for experience in case Fulton's a vampire, I'd sign a young developing keeper. Keeper's can have long careers and experience is important, but youngsters can do it, especially when encouraged by an experienced senior player at centre back like Ian Evatt. Another young keeper to train with and discuss the game would be good for Fulton, whereas some know-it-all old-lag happy or unhappy with the subs bench ......... What do you think?
