Sweeper07 4,287 Report post Posted January 20, 2019 Our new keeper did not appear to have excited many on here so far - 2 posts before this one. He stood up well on Saturday and gave us some confidence that he will be solid for the rest of the season if he keeps fit. Good Signing ! Welcome to the best team in Paisley ! 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think most people were sticking to the Arrivals thread tbf. Good to hear he had a good game. He had absolutely no chance with the goals, both well placed finishes. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
djchapsticks 9,259 Report post Posted January 20, 2019 He made a couple of good saves in the first half and generally comfortable all around. He also looked strong at corners. Couldn't understand why the Alloa fans were giving it the big, 'wooooooaaaahhhh' every time he had the ball as if he was dodgy. He never done thing wrong. Suppose it was justice for all their pish that it was their own goalie who later made the biggest balls up in the match. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MenstrieSaint 1,076 Report post Posted January 20, 2019 I like the way that he jumped up and thumped a corner out of the box with both fists, might make us more solid defending set pieces. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scam75 497 Report post Posted January 21, 2019 I liked him. Not had a keeper for ages that inspires confidence from corners and that punch nearly reached the half way line! Thought he was quick and sharp. Time will tell but certainly looks a useful upgrade. Every chance he'll get a stiff workout on Wednesday. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fmckinn 259 Report post Posted January 21, 2019 Liked the look of him. Quick off the line , commands his box, comfortable with the ball at his feet.. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

antrin 5,081 Report post Posted February 27, 2019 I’ve now said several times that, I really like our big goalie, two caveats, though... 1. I am unsure if I qualify as being “older”. 2. I’ll reserve comparative judgement till I see how Hladky behaves in the final minutes of a European match when Saints are leading with no chance of cocking it up... 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Point 2 contradicts point 1 above resulting in automatic qualification for the older category.

Hendo 3,049 Report post Posted February 27, 2019 Billy Thomson was a better keeper than Money. I think his reputation was damaged by the odd well publicised cock up in the odd cup semi final. Hladky bears more than a passing resemblance to BT, both in looks and ability. Thomson is still goalie coach at Killie. He must be in his 60's now and still only looks about 35. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dirty Sanchez 1,741 Report post Posted February 27, 2019 You used to expect Money to save penalties. Expect. Because he usually did save them. I reckon he's not only better than everyone since him, he's streets ahead of most of them. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
santaponsasaint 5,275 Report post Posted February 27, 2019 Looks a great keeper. And speaking to players on Sat. They say he's a great guy in the dressing room and training. A real find. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Magic Monkey 4,676 Report post Posted February 27, 2019 It's our new #moneyball approach starting to pay off. Shame he's not on a proper 18 month deal or we'd have an asset on our hands in the summer, even if we did go down. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
