Daweii Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 It says a lot that I can only remember Johnstone saving three shots.. He saved two in the 2-0 loss at Tottenham and one in the match on Saturday. Now I am sure he has saved more, but not many more.. Since signing him we have; Lost 2-0 (Spurs) Lost 1-0 (Wolves) Drew 2-2 (Preston) Lost 3-0 (Brentford) Lost 2-1 (Forest) Now I know our issue has always been conceding goals, but we were having vastly more success with Bunn and Gollini in goal. If we can't sign a keeper on a free then get Bunn in he's a shit keeper, but Johnstone makes him look world class in comparison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barney_avfc Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 I believe Mark Bunn's contract ends at the end of this month. It appears he's a well liked member of the squad but Let him go. He just isn't good enough, even for a backup keeper for me. Not sure where Jed Steer is with his rehabilitation. We could need 2 keepers this summer 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was an experienced back-up goalie to go with signings like Marshall, Taylor and Postma. I dont think anybody expected him to be a world beater If anything it was the sad fact the No.1 was consistently awful that he was thrown into action (I dont think any of his starts was for injuries to our keeper) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSV Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Talk hes signing for Northampton on a 3 year deal. I am guessing Steer will be our number 2. Gollini loaned out. SJ to Boro.

TRO Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 (edited) If you chucked two coats down in the park.....you would be hard pressed to have Bunn In goal. ps I've seen bigger wingers Edited June 28, 2017 by TRO 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NIVillan Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 Back in the Day your number 2 would play Reserve Footy to keep sharp, now the Reserve Goalie who sits on the Bench doesnt see much action as they just train with First Team and sit on the Bench. They are often like Bunn a journey man who is happy to sit there just in case. The ones like Steer see a lot more competitive action in the Reserves and are 'developed'. Unfortunately due to the last couple of seasons our number ones being less than crap, Bunn has seen a lot more action than was anticipated.

Agreed the lack of reserve football is a bad hindrance for the English league. Youth players don't get to play against adults so don't develop fully. The likes of Grealish and Gardner walked through youth football but didn't learn the hard stuff so now playing against adults they struggle. As for Bunn, he seems a likeable character but hopefully we get better in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
