I think a 28/29 year old McGregor was better than the version he isn’t now at 37/38. So I’d say past his best. Not disputing he’s still a good enough keeper mind you.

It was our first clean sheet at Easter Road since the Ryan Stevenson Edinburgh Derby and it was largely down to that excellent finger tip save by Doyle. I don't agree. I thought he got all the credit he deserved down there. Had a good game and apart from a slight fumble towards the end he was decent. Certainly his best game in a Hearts jersey and he got all the plaudits he deserved. Since then, although hasn't cost us yet, he's been poor.

You’d think folk (me included) would have learned their lesson this season after Clare. How come the same patience isn’t being shown towards our goalkeeper? He’s already had a derby winning save and looks pretty solid for the most part. Because Clare looked like a player, Doyle doesn't. Doyle also came with a pretty poor reputation, unlike Clare.

Colin is young and has plenty time to fine tune any flaws and Bobby's a good 2nd choice. He's 33? 15 minutes ago, JyTees said: I don't agree. I thought he got all the credit he deserved down there.

Lord Beni of Gorgie Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 One thing I like about Doyle. He is big and comes for things. Couple of drops, but usually the keeper coming for it, particularly one of his size, knocks the opposition out of the way and the defence clean up scraps even if he does drop it. He's not brilliant, but for the above reason I would take him as first choice over Bobby, who is really quite flaky but capable of some good stops. In the summer would be good to address keeper, left back (again) and wing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the goalkeeping issue anyone at the recent game against St J. would agree that Clark was dodgy, so much so our crowd were getting at him. It's a no from me.

Just don't think he's been very reassuring. Been a few flaps that on another day might've cost us. We can't rely on the ball dropping in our favour all the time.

jambonian Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 (edited) I was really disappointed that McLaughlin never re-signed last summer. Thought he was the best keeper we've had in a long time. When we knew we were signing Zlamal it was said that he was a good shot-stopper, athletic but didn't control his penalty box well enough, not shouting and helping defenders etc. but he's been okay. Doyle has came in and I thought he controlled the penalty box a bit better but he does tend to get caught out when the ball comes towards him quite often. Must be doing something right though if Rep. of Ireland are interested. Zander Clark for me would be a decent replacement if the other two left for some reason but i'm not sure he's any better, i'd say about same as them. And the third keeper, Kevin Silva, the American guy, don't know much about him, is he a youngster and maybe not ready for the first team?

maroonnicky63 Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 I hate to say it but if he keeps on performing the way he has been doing he will be moving down south. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The White Cockade Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 i'd like to see Bobby get another run in the team he was brilliant at the start of the season and saved us a good few times he had a couple of dodgy games and his confidence dropped when the team as a whole were struggling but I think he's done enough to deserve another chance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason wasn't able to sign a pre contract at the end of the season. He had well over a year of his existing contract to see out until he signed an extension.
