I see he's in the nets to keep the Chelski out tomorrow.

 

Got me thinking -

 

Keepers I've seen in a Wanderers shirt :-

 

Best - Branny (pen save against Reading)

Shocker - Simon Farnworth (any cross)

got a lot of time and respect for Aiden.

when we were good, a lot of people forget that he was the man inbetween the sticks whilst Branny was injured.

he was one of our biggest unsung heroes ever. FACT.

He also coaches the keepers at City's academy with Gumbo.

 

It was a long train journey back that night after Horne's hit and hope.

i dont agree with that i thought he was crap,espicially once the crowd started to get on his back,

 

he had a hard job trying to replace branagen when he was injured .

 

the only 2 good keepers we have had for some years imo are branagen and jussi.

 

bad keepers we have had in my time supporting bolton are

simon farnworth

dave felgate (wales no1 :::::::lol:::::::)

kevin rose ](*,)

aidan davison

gavin ward
