He clearly wasn't gash. It became a popular NSC opinion to slag him off. He was okay for the first few months and has been brilliant since returning from injury (and in that Rotherham game before he was injured) so that's most of the season. As I said earlier, if you're not convinced by that...
To be fair, if Stockdale doesn't convince you after his recent performances, then you're clueless. He's been one of our best two best players in the last two months. I genuinely don't understand some fans.
