I make that 450 minutes of league football without conceding a goal from open play. Not bad i reckon and at Middlesborough we kept them out for the full 90 minutes.

What is this down to?

I reckon he is a better communicator than Roberts and has better command of his area along with supreme shot stopping.

Roberts may have better kicking but Kuipers never does anything stoopid when distributing the ball where Roberts has on numerous occasions got our full backs in trouble.

Well done Michel, you're No 1 in my book.

and much of that has been with second choice centrebacks.

The FDM is a true legend

 

[The Large One]

Hear, hear CTS.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

an unbreakable combination of Kuipers and Butters!

 

[Trigger]

He's simply the better keeper...

Statistics never lie!

Long live the FDM!

 

[Shizuoka Dolphin]

And of course the one goal on that was a penalty! Good to have him back!

 

[Trigger]

By the way Chappers, Flitney was in goal for the Cheaterfield game you rusty bullet hole!

 

[dwayne]

well one good thing about Coppell going is that any manager coming in (including blind ones) will be able to see which is the better goalie and act accordingly.

 

[CHAPPERS]

By the way Chappers, Flitney was in goal for the Cheaterfield game you rusty bullet hole!

Indeed he was, Well Done.

 

[Marshy]

Roberts is still a better keeper imho.

 

[Gary Nelson]

Imagine if Coppell had sold FDM to Hull 2 weeks ago, and then fucks off to Reading!!
The violence there would have been!!

 

[Rich]

There both top keepers

 

[albiongirl]

FDM is more vocal and encouraging He doesn't say "Away" any more I kinda miss that

 

[fatbadger]

CTS - I couldn't have put it better.

IMHO it's all down to the communication.

Altogether now...

our best 'keeper's a former dutch marine,
a former dutch marine

etc etc

 

[Everest]

It's just a coinsidance, co-inscidens, koeinsidans..

f*** it. FDM = legend.
