This, he's made far too many mistakes for me, been really disappointed with him.

Without a doubt.
His distribution was class at first but even that is **** now. Slow around the box and slow to get down to shots. He's done.

Yup.
Said it on the way home, Marshall saves shots I’d expect a keeper of his calibre to make.
Other than that, not been good enough.

If he had a false moustache and surname called macey he’d be hounded out a couple of months back.
Great signing but sadly 3 years past his best.
Can do a lot worse but do agree feel he’s on the decline

Totally, not been impressed by Marshal. Distribution was excellent early season but not convinced lately and not just because he had a shocker of a game tonight.

We had just been saying he looked a bit suspect tonight then the third goal happened.

I’d like to think that there would be a natural progression where he phases out and Johnson emerges over the next few years.
Still not convinced it’s where I’d be starting the rebuild though.

The fact he’s got a mistake in him and he’s not making the saves we would like means it should be a no brainer to sign a new younger model.
I do think his save in the first half deserves a huge amount of credit though, was an incredible save.

He was a big part in the shambolic display, I don't know how manty times he chose the wrong option with his distribution. Part of the reason we could barley get out our own half. Macey was never as bad as Marshal has been.

Really?
Made a mistake tonight with a misplaced clearance
But can't think of other times when he's had a poor performance.
Get's a bit like this when we lose eh, suddenly everyone has always been pap and needs punted asap

He's not terrible but at his age and a few mistakes creeping in I'd be looking at bringing in proper competition for the gloves next season. Let Johnson go away and play for the year.

Have thought he needed replaced since about November.
Save % is in the 50s. Quite comfortably amongst the worst in the league.

Not making huge amounts of glaring errors but a save % rate that suggests they just aren't making the saves they once would have.PM Awards General Poster of The Year 2015, 2016, 2017. Probably robbed in other years

I was buzzing about signing Marshall, and I really expected him to be our Gordon, but he doesn't seem to save much. The one save tonight from point blank was a good save, great maybe, but I can't think of many other times he's done that.
Whereas with someone like Marciano, I can picture 4/5 brilliant saves off the top of my head. Marshall is better than Macey, but nowhere near the level of Rocky anymore. 2/3 years ago yes, but he's not that keeper anymore unfortunately.

Definitely not my top priority. Been criticised a lot for not making saves this season (not something I agree with, hasn’t conceded a load of soft goals) but largely praise for his footwork and distribution.
Tonight he made an absolutely superb save he had little right to make, and yet put us in danger numerous times - eventually costing us a goal - with his poor kicking and throws.
Also spilled a straightforward shot late on, and did get away with dropping a cross in the first half, but was an awkward one to deal with and probably the right call to come for it, given how it panned out.
Just a bad night for me, rather than a keeper whose in a terminal decline. Given the work that we’ll need to do with the squad in the summer, it won’t be cheap - and a really good replacement for Marshall would come at a real cost.
Hope for another season or two, whilst making the transition to Murray Johnston would the best plan at the moment, I think.
