    TERRIBLE defending from Gresko.

    Interesting YA Thread...game's almost over and not a single mention of the YA involved. If no one else is going to mention his name, I'm not going to break the ice...

    Brad comes out early to clear the danger. Kicks the ball all the way to Ian Walker.


    Still yet to make a save though....

    Leicester corner....
    .....headed back across the goal twice, and ends up with Howey who volleys under Brad.


    82'nd min, Leicester 2-0 Blackburn

    You never quit with your Leeds boys do you Brian? :D

    Regardless..I don's see West Ham going up, and I'd bet the farm that Leeds is going down...so in either case that'd make the #1 and #2 English keeper in Div 1...

    I still think there is no way we are going down. One win jumps us to midtable, 2 wins would be great. It isn't over for us yet! Only 4 points from 11'th place

    What a nice situation in the GK position we have here! Despite being one of the hottest keepers of the world last season, it won’t be a disaster for USMNT if Brad’s not up to his past form this season or even ever again. Not that many national teams can say that. :)

    Watched the EPL highlight show tonight here, and Brad was in a totally helpless position for both of those goals. Once again, his defence didn't do him any favours.

    Want to know the difference between Rovers-- and to a great extent, Brad's fortunes-- between this season and last? It's in the defence. Like night and day...

    Brad's one of the best 'keepers in the world, arguably, but without a tight and cohesive back four in front of him, not even he can do it all.
