Superstitious Dave 0 Posted August 22, 2010 Told you all he is a quality keeper just needed time to settle in!! commanded area well yesterday brilliant stop for the one on one. If the defence had a bit of pace john wouldnt of had to come racing out plus it wasnt a penalty anyway according to people sitting in the barclay! Anyway what a save, you wont see many better penalty saves all season, i celebrated it like a goal!! I bet some of you chanting his name were slating him on here just a couple of weeks ago, funny game aint it!! Also what a goal by jacko i think he could push holt and martin for their places which is what we want!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mister Chops 7 Posted August 22, 2010 I like that if a goalkeeper gives away a penalty, and then saves it, he becomes an instant hero.If I set fire to your house, and then put the blaze out before any damage was done, would I be a hero too? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Howson is now! 0 Posted August 22, 2010 Anyone sat in the Barclay claiming it wasn''t a penalty either wasn''t watching, or the Yellow tinted glasses are so tinted they couldn''t see through them at all.I sit in block B so was dead in line behind when it happened, Ruddy took him out big time, the yellow card was a correct decision because the Swansea player had taken it away from goal.Everything else you''ve said I agree with though.

I don''t think he''s over me though.Ruddy didn''t need to concede the penalty, but his save was extremely good and deserves praise. However, had he not saved it, I think his judgement in conceding it would have been under greater scrutiny than it is today. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The penalty was caused by the attacker completely outpacing the slow Russell Martin forcing Ruddy to come out. Keepers are in a no win situation then and we were lucky that Ruddy wasn''t sent off! Ruddy wasn''t that poor in the Watford home game either, he was let down by the poor defence in that one. Thankfully the defence has got better! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
I am a Banana 0 Posted August 22, 2010 Yeah he certainly helped himself y-day for saving the penalty, but who gave it away in the 1st place?! [;)] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In the same way it''s wrong to now place the boy on a pedastal. Players prove their worth over seasons not 4 matches.We have seen the best and worst of Ruddy already and lets hope he is settling in and we continue to see more of his best. Make no mistake though, he will drop a few clangers, every keeper does but getting on his back will help no-one. My dad maintains that Kevin Keelan is the best keeper he has ever seen at Carrow Road, he is also says that when he first watched Keelan he had some real howlers! The good thing for me though is that Ruddy has had a difficult start yet he seems to shrugged it off and is improving game by game. For that he deserves plenty of credit!
