How long will we keep Walton? Maximum 12 months I think before we will get an offer we cant refuse.
Really? We'd not noticed.
Never mind, there's always next week.
He made three good saves today, which did exactly that. (And you obviously missed the Rotherham match, because the reflex save from Greer's slice, was as good a save as you'll see anywhere, all season).
People's lack of objectivity absolutely baffles me. It's like once they've pinned their negative colours to a particular mast, they can't possibly see any good in their target, lest it contradicts their previous opinions. Stockdale has made some really good saves, and has been clearly culpable for two or three goals conceded. A refusal to recognise either is just embarrassing and renders your argument invalid.

Agreed. Walton has done just fine, but people were queuing up to heap praise on him for routine saves that Stockdale would have been criticised for not catching, for example.
Stockdale had a good game today, couldn't have done a thing about any of the goals (somebody said it was a poor throw out from him which eventually led to their first goal: that may be- I can't recall- but every goal comes from somebody surrendering possession somewhere on the park so why target Stockdale specifically?).

And if Walton was 29 not 19 you'd be questioning his positioning & handling on a couple of goals/ saves so far in his short career.
