swjf50 0 Posted April 23, 2013 With Stoke''s aerial bombardment is there a case for bringing Ruddy back because of his height, size and dominance in the penalty area?I think it should be seriously considered. I''m not saying Bunn has played badly, far from it, but he may get flattened, so Ruddy''s extra strength would be useful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Highland Canary 76 Posted April 23, 2013 Ruddy. And, hopefully, a linesman who know which direction to give throws this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thisisbabyish 0 Posted April 23, 2013 Ruddy as he will have nothing to do!This has 0-0 written all over it, both teams will be very happy with an extra point and I can''t see either team coming past the halfway line let alone threaten the goal! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JayNCFC 14 Posted April 23, 2013 Here is hoping that is true...For me, Ruddy as he could command the area better, but Bunn has done little wrong of late (maybe the reading goal a little weak?) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mre2 1 Posted April 23, 2013 So the choice with only 4 very important games left is between an in-form goalkeeper and one that has been out a while with a fairly serious injury and is going to be rusty. It''s a no brainier surely? I really don''t understand fan''s logic sometimes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chunky Norwich 0 Posted April 23, 2013 Personally I feel Bunn has done enough to keep the position for the remainder of the season. Let Ruddy have a rest, a good pre-season under his belt and then back to number one next season Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ROBFLECK 132 Posted April 23, 2013 If Ruddy is fully fit he should play Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Greg 0 Posted April 23, 2013 Definitely Ruddy for his strength and hight. But Bunn hasn''t done anything wrong recently though in my opinion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paul moy 235 Posted April 23, 2013 Ruddy deserves a shot after Bunn was partially at fault for the goal on Saturday IMO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Brownstone 0 Posted April 23, 2013 More to do with Ruddy''s physical presence against that of Stoke than Bunn''s culpability for Readng''s goal for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SYG 0 Posted April 23, 2013 "Ruddy deserves a shot after Bunn was partially at fault for the goal on Saturday IMO"Partly to blame? Did you see how much that ball moved in the air?! Any keeper would if struggled with that, tbh Bunn done well to get some sort of touch on it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jersey Canary 143 Posted April 24, 2013 If fit then Ruddy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fire3822 0 Posted April 24, 2013 Mark Bunn for me,he is fighting for the cause & nobody can question his commitment, I was in the North Bank at Arsenal ( unfortunately) but you could see the passion he has in him, he was so angry when the pen was given,punching the ground when it went in & wound the Arsenal fans up at every opportunity which was so much fun for the three of us Norwich fans to see.Stoke haven''t been scoring loads either & it sounds like some people are scared of them already.I would maybe try Ruddy for Man City but let Bunn keep the position he has looked so good in for the other games, it''s the least he deserves.

alan32 0 Posted April 24, 2013 ruddy for me bunn has done okay but we need the big man back he is playing well in the u21 team as he gets fitter would also give the fans a lift plus get valuable game time before our last 3 home games when he must play Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HazzaJet 252 Posted April 24, 2013 Ruddy with Bunn on the bench. I was expecting Ruddy back last Saturday but I guessed he probably still wasn''t 100% fit. Ruddy also has more experience playing with us Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gnasher 0 Posted April 24, 2013 I don''t get the argument that Bunn has showed passion and commitment - surely any player should and does otherwise they get called out? (See Morison). As a number 2 he''s been given a rare extended period to show his worth and has done so, next season he will either go to another club as number one or slot in behind ruddy once more.Ruddy may be rusty, but he has been back in training and played a couple of games for the U21s. A keeper of his ability can win us points single-handedly on a regular basis, this and the confidence he''d give the crowd and players on his return outweighs any sentimentality to Bunn for me.

Row D Seat 7 0 Posted April 24, 2013 If Ruddy''s fit enough, then Ruddy. If he''s not, then Bunn. If Bunn isn''t fit then Camp. If Camp isn''t fit then whichever keeper isn''t out on loan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Casey 0 Posted April 24, 2013 Definitely Bunn. Show some loyalty to the lad. Plus, we don''t want Arsenal or any other club for that matter remembering how good Ruddy is for the summer transfer window! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Syteanric 1 Posted April 24, 2013 We are safe now, no need to rush Ruddy back.. bench him for the rest of the season and start him afresh for the friendlies. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

city4eva 209 Posted April 24, 2013 When I saw Bunn give away his gloves and shirt at the end of the Reading game, I did wonder if he knew he had played his last game for us. Ruddy for me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fleckyfan 0 Posted April 24, 2013 The very fact this debate is happening is proof of how well Bunn has done. I was pretty worried when Ruddy first got injured.but if Ruddy has looked sharp in the under 21 games then I''d play him. He is our No.1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
