Who had Bromsgrove in the sweepstake? Think this one might have been expected ;)

Great signing for them. Loved him to bits. But I feel both our keepers deserve the chance to play for us and keep improving so am not disappointed he is not coming back at the moment.

Where does Platty rate for those who have been going longer than myself?

I've seen

Nick Bussey
Paul Evans
Matt Seargent
Dan Platt
And now Catlow & Bunn.

No other GK's spring to mind, since I started coming, have I missed any - other than the odd short term GK, to cover injuries.

With respect to the others, he's the best GK in that small list, just wondering how he compares to GK's before 2010ish.

We've had some good GK's over the last few years. Haven't we?

Great question that has only one answer. I'll take no arguement on this one.
Danny McDonnell was an absolute legend. I believe he could have played at a MUCH higher level. Gutted when he finally moved on to a then very good Worcester City.
Tim Clarke did move on to a higher level playing many years in the Football League before returning to us at the end of his career as well. Quality but had the odd Rick in him as well.
Any of those in your list would figure highly after those 2 though with IMO Platty topping that list.
In all my years we seem to have been blessed with good keepers though I'm sure some will come up with some exceptions! :D

1. Danny McDonnell
2. Tim Clarke
3. Platty

3rd after those 2 is a very high accolade indeed

Couldn't agree more.

Just running through the 'regular' keepers I can remember we've had I'm struggling to find a poor one.
I'm sure there must be though.

I could never decide whether Andy quy was a poor goalkeeper or whether that was as much a result of being in a side who were relegated there was also mark gayle and a couple of Australians one on loan from Coventry I believe and I'm sure we had another Australian for brief time.

Yeah, Quy wasn't the greatest admittedly. Australians? You've got a better memory than me Chris!
Then again so has a goldfish.....
