Official sites preview for todays Reserve match (KO 2pm, Woodside Road, Worthing):

"The Albion line-up features the experienced trio of Paul Watson, Nathan Jones and Gary Hart, however goalkeeper Ben Roberts is still struggling with his back problem."

*still* got a back problem? I thought he came back? (pun intended)
I had given him until the new year to get fully fit and start challenging Kuipers before all my faith was lost in him....well he's got a little over two weeks and it aint looking good.
Time for him to just leave?

Agreed, hes earning a bit also.
I think like Chappers he will retire at the end of the season.

he,s been injury prone all through his career,
just before he got injuried for us he had the longest consecutive period of playing in his career!!

thats why we got him on the cheap!!

Chris May is a good keeper but he's too small to make it at professional level I would imagine.

Supposedly good, was linked to Liverpool (rumour) not so long ago, still a young lad. If he fails we just keep Keeley on the playing staff :D

It has to be said that if Brighton does wind up as a football club we could easily start up a charity foundation for knackered footballers. We seem to attract them with abondance.

Kitson
Piercy
Roger
Blackwell

Anymore?

Chris May is not good enough.

He is too small and even the goalkeeping coach does not rate him.

Richard Martin is a very good keeper, and John Sullivan not bad either.

Yeah, i think Shay Given is over rated also!!!

Chris May was standing next to Jake Robsinson once and he only looked a little bit bigger!
