I'm not totally on board the Jason bus, I'm just getting absolutely f***ed off with the supposed fans having a constant go at a player or manager decision, when people at the club obviously know a damn sight more than 99.9% of fans
Last 5 games each:
| Player | Pos | Squad | MP | Starts | Min | 90s | GA | GA90 | SoTA | Saves | Save% | W | D | L |
| Jason Steele | GK | Brighton | 15 | 15 | 1,350 | 15 | 28 | 1.87 | 64 | 38 | 60.9 | 5 | 4 | 6 |
| Bart Verbruggen | GK | Brighton | 13 | 13 | 1,170 | 13 | 16 | 1.23 | 51 | 35 | 72.5 | 6 | 5 | 2 |
You're in your own little NSC echo chamber if that is the case. Believe what you like, I don't mind Steele being on the teamsheet especially in a game where build-up and accurate passing from our keeper is going to be crucial.
Will you break wind?
Bart:
Yeah this is where im at. Always backed Steele in the past, and dont want to give the guy unnecessary grief, but more recently I think there's been a slight tipping towards his mistakes or areas of his game that arent so strong outweighing the benefits he does bring. Not by lots, but enough to suggest that Bart would be at least as effective between the sticks (if not more) but with a higher ceiling. I dont think there's currently much between the 2 keepers, they both have strong and weak areas, but I feel Bart has a higher ceiling and he's improving on his weaker areas quickly. To speed up his learning and get closer to his potential I would go with Bart from now on, but Steele will still remain a perfectly good back up.
This, this and a thousand times this. Lucky Steele is made of strong stuff because he can't fail to be aware of how some fans behave. But it's good we've got yet another Steele bashing thread.
I broadly agree with you, but his current form is a worry.
But to be clear, Steele's form could not be any worse.
I’d like to see a list of the games, my interpretation is that RDZ has largely been protecting Bart as the younger keeper, even in that list above, Steele’s have all been away, and in the big ones or ones we’ve been resting players / absences.
So we can't have any opinion on team selection then? OK, got that.
That seems to indicate Steele has not responded well to the player rotation policy
From what I’ve seen, most people do from around 16:35 on alternative saturdays
The trouble is 10% of NSC think they are the 0.1%.
Or, as summised above, Bart is being protected and Steele is facing the trickier fixtures.
No, I said in an earlier post you are entitled to an opinion....I also intimated there are a lot of moaning minnies on here
