    If he lies down across the goal, there won't be enough space anywhere to squeeze in the ball.
    Banning people is no longer my hobby,
    but take a look at my photo blog:

        Good call for Neil. Paddy won't let him down. He never let us down. Unlike that Brazilian dwarf who partially replaced him.

          well, at 6' 1 1/2" he's not exactly a dwarf. But perhaps you weren't referring to his height... Anyway, you can't really blame him, it was Hughes who signed him...

          Be funny to see how Paddy fares in goal now. He was great for us.

            That Brazilian "dwarf" was part of the reason we had hope to stay up. I'll never forget what he did January that season. Utter brilliance.

              One game. At West Ham. Another game was Villa away. Shot stopping alone doesn't a brilliant keeper make. But, hey, keep slagging off Kenny, the ordinary fella, who helped get us up playing is part in a team effort. Who then helped us stay up. And who doesn't own a helicopter, or leach £100K a week not playing for one whole season.

                Not to mention the small fact he won QPR Player Of The Year the season we went up under Warnock.

                  Paddy was brilliant for us but this seems like a desperate move from Warnock. Recently Paddy was supposed to be presented to the crowd at Loftus Rd but it was cancelled after a twitter backlash though official reason was that he was busy or something. Probably be here as backup to Smithies now if Warnock had got the job

                    Is he really that bad now? Still only 37.

                    Neville Southall was always a bit overweight for Everton when they dominated the PL in in the mid-80's.

                      This. It beggars belief some are prepared to coat the fella off, Stan. Some same folk who harangue others who say it's been a bit s hit under Jimmy.

                        Agree, it's the mentality of some that being a big name and earning £100k p/w and having the odd good game equates to us as a fanbase being privileged to have them at our club. No ones having a go at what he's up to now but a player who actually did well for us gets humiliated for trying to make a living as he hasn't set up a gold plated pension pot at our expense.
                        Lets forget and ridicule the players who were actually good and played well over a period of more than 20 mins and didnt result in us paying more in wages than income resulting in massive debt and turning us from a club generally well liked to a bit of a circus. These type of nonsense transfers summed up everything wrong in the modern game but don't matter he stopped a shot at Villa.

                          Id have major doubts whether he is still up to championship level, it seems he has only played 3 games in 2 years. Got no game time at Bolton, Ipswich or Bury (think he was doing Bury a favour by cancelling though)

                            Yea because as you can tell from my post, I slagged off Kenny completely there by not actually mentioning him. Great keeper in the champs and wasn't half bad in the prem when he came up. Shame about him slagging us off and all but I'll leave that to the side.

                            As for Cesar, how about the fact that we conceded only one goal between 2nd January and 2nd February in matches against Chelsea, Tottenham, West Ham, Man City and Norwich? We have his performances in those matches to thank (Along with Nelsen in particular against Spurs) for that run which could have kept us up if a few things had gone our way attacking wise.

                              Kiraly, the former(?) Palace keeper, singlehandly sent Norway out of the Euro-qualification against Hungary. Not sure how old Kiraly is, but he was really amazing that night.
