Completly overboard reactions on here, yes he made an error but no one has died. Made couple of class saves earlier. Draw is good result, of course we could have won it but that's football for you. Of course PiG is our best keeper but to villify him in this anner is completly un acceptable.
ees complicated no?

What are the chances Andy Naylor moans about us in the Argus about us laying into Casper?

We're f'ing brilliant
then...
He clearly made a mistake - who's to say another keeper (Brez I suppose) wouldn't have fluffed it with the other chances Casper dealt well with?

Silly old bat
so you would be happy for him to carry on in goal then
As a back up keeper, yes. Obviously I want Kuszczak back as soon as possible but Ankergren is capable at this level and doesn't make silly mistakes in every game as some would have you believe today.
As I said he kept 14 clean sheets last season at this level but I've seen several people post that he is non league level which is ridiculously over the top.

I reserve my right not to say anything about Naylor online. Believe me there are a few things.
I remember them well, and there's nothing wrong with my memory. I'd wager even with those 14 points, he's cost us more with his unique approach to goalkeeping basics.

You registered today just to have a go at Ankergren. Bridge has also been seen with cigarettes. Care to have a go at him also?

Quite high. More so because he's not even an Albion fan so he love laying into Albion fans.

He made some great saves in the first half, but that is his job ffs. Howlers like that are inexcusable when committed on a regular basis.

When he was playing every game he was a good L1 standard keeper and did us a job in the Championship yes. 14 clean sheets over 40+ league games (and some cup??) is OK even with our good defense that season.
This season when he's played one off games he has looked below his usual L1 standard. The knock even 2-3 years ago was that he can shot stop but shots bounce off him or he flaps at crosses, otherwise he would have been in the Prem. But he's not and never has been consistantly because he's not an all round keeper. He's Champ+ at one thing role and around Blue Square at best for the other. Averages out to a L1 keeper who should hopefully be doing well for one every week next season while Brez or another sits on our bench behind the exceptional PIG

yes and other seasons you'd have a great point as his shot stopping is above any other Albion keeper in 10 seasons. This year though PIG is at least as good at shot stopping AND can do the rest to an equally high level rather than being google bait!
No, because he doesn't do it EVERY time he plays.
He's pony, total liability
But Kuszscak wasn't well enough to play.. so..
If we don't make the play offs, Ankergren will be no more to blame than:
Kuszczak, who cost us 2 points v birmingham
Ulloa, whose penalty being saved cost us points v Barnsley
CMS missed a lot of chances, including one early in the second half v palace that could have led to us getting something from the game, v millwall at home gifting them a goal, and missed penalty
Barnes sent off twice, as well as his missed penalties and other missed chances
El Abd conceding penalties, losing his man
Orlandi missed chances to extend leads v Bolton and leeds, costing us points
If we don't get into the play offs, it will be all the points dropped over the whole season, not just today's.

There may well be reasonable case for a debate about his place in the squad going forward, but i can only imagine that most of the posts on here are from dickless keyboard warriors who are jealous of the fact that he has made a career as a professional sportsman, something which they couldn't imagine in their wildest bipolar episodes....
Agreed. I still think we can do it. As you say everyone makes a mistake. I wish I could edit my post about sacking him but that's passion I guess.
No ankergren is not capable at this level..... i totally disagree.
