SPWF 8,230 Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 41 minutes ago, DBBTB said: I hope this is a fishing trip because Stewart is an excellent coach. He played a key role in developing Gordon at Hearts before he came here and goalkeeper is the one area Scotland always look fairly strong in but since he came to the club McGregor went to another level, Alexander was a perfectly fine keeper for us and the improvement in Foderingham has been notable since joining us too. There's a ropey section there with Bell, Simonsen & Robinson but no manager or coach has a 100% track record and IMO the positives he has brought significantly outweigh the negatives. It helps that Foderingham obviously has talent to be nurtured and coached. Where as Bell and Simonsen are below average goalkeepers. Simonsen in particular is probably the worst keeper in the club's history. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JC10 1,449 Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Hopefully stays, decent enough track record but can understand if the new gaffer wants to bring in his own man. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foderingham has got better. The boy Brown left and played in the SPL. Kelly will probably make a career in football maybe even with us and so might McCrorie. To me McGregor was developed by Thomson but I am sure Stewart also improved him but you would have to ask all these keepers to really know Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You make no mention of cones or fast feet or dominating the penalty box. Which includes staying on your line and shouting at others. Or slightly outside it for Fod.

Anyone else unhappy about this? I don't think he has done much to improve the keepers he has coached and is very much part of the previous failed regimes. I fail to see what he brings to the table and hope he will be gone in the summer when there will be time to get a good replacement. Thoughts? My bug bear .He is still part of the Scotland set up .

tannerall 25,935 Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Lots of posters slagging off our goalkeeping coach. Why ? Now we all know our defence is shite. No one on here would deny it. But we are only losing an average of 1 goal a game, and have the third best defensive record. All of which suggests our goalkeeper is good and therefore the goalkeeping coach is doing his job well. Problem seems to have been with our coaching of the defence............................ Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BallochBear 1,613 Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 As Pedro was a goalkeeper himself maybe he'll tell Stewart what to do anyway so doesn't need a new coach. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
