never knew that he came on during the N.Ireland hammering to the Netherlands at the weekend, then again never watched the 2nd half.
Man U, Rangers, Derby, Olympiacos, Odense, West Ham....aye, he's no McPake right enough, he'd be well out of his depth in the SPL.Quote:

You know absolutely zero about goalkeepers if you think roy carroll, probably the most nervous footballer ive seen play is an excting prospect. Hes never been first choice at any club hes played with and many cases not even second choice. Signing players on a downward spiral has been exactly what is wrong with this club for the past few years.Quote:

Your opinion of Carroll does not make other people mugs or knowing zero about football!Quote:

People who use a list of a players previous clubs does, nothing to do with opinion. Another on here who struggles to read a post before getting on the keyboard.Quote:

Spot on. IIRC there was widespread negativity at Leightons signature and yet he was a revelation for us and went onto play in the world cup and gain a further 30 or so caps. I reckon Carroll would be a great option for a goalie.Quote:

Just my opinion.....
350 appearances is pretty good from the bench, maybe mugs like you should refer to Wikipedia before making nonsense statements?Quote:

The clubs hes warmed the bench for?Quote:
