Macca had cat gland injections? He certainly moved like one the way he pawed that shot away.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Where is at commentary? Is it an alternative to Sky or whatever it's called on the web site?

He has more passion than the bland lifeless lot on Sky i player stuff

Funny that we'll remember that save when thinking back to this game and not his rush of blood which led to their equaliser as well as another error which led to Davies clearing off the line!

Not Macca's best performance, but I'm not really criticising when you consider the number of points his saves have won us (and cost our rivals) in other important games this season.

Hope he's still with us next season.

Interesting rumour which I am sure is credible especially as Motherwell have been to BP not too long ago for Clay & Tait so will know all about Macca. However, listened to his interview a few months ago on that D34 post or whatever it is who enters something every week for us to read. In that interview Macca was pretty insistent that he wanted to stay at the club.

Appreciate a double your money offer will be tempting but involves a lot of family upheaval together with a need to learn a new language!!!

Hopefully he will stay and whilst he makes a few gaffes each season what keeper at this level does not. If he does go thanks for all you have done for the club James.

Watched the Tottenham game earlier and the Watford keeper made a huge clanger that led to the first goal. Goalkeepers that don't make mistakes don't exist. The better ones just make fewer.

I also heard that Macca interview and his insistence that he wanted to stay, no matter what happened this season. If he has since had a lot better offer from elsewhere, then he may well have changed his mind.

Great save but can I just say why was he so far to the side of his goal? He shouldn't have put himself that far across, exactly like the goal we conceded he was miles to far out. He should have been stood a foot inside his near post..

None the less a great save and a very good goalkeeper.

Fate? Luck? Instinct? Who knows why, but he was in the right place at the right time.

I'm enjoying the renaissance of James McKeown.

Macca not the best keeper we have ever had but a great shot stopper and certainly a match for most keepers  in League 2.I reckon since being our no1 he normally has 2-3 costly errors a season but more than makes up for those by winning us 12 points.I hope he stays unless we can get someone better and that won`t be easy.

I think you'll find that all keepers, even the ones considered the best will make 2-3 costly errors a season.

I knew they had John Moore commentary!

Please can someone at the club upload highlights of the match as commentated on by the GTFC video crew? I'd love to hear how John dealt with that Matt goal!

I much prefer the video crew's commentary because it's in the moment (unlike that post-production stuff that Sky do. It removes all emotion from the game).

Ok howlers ala Coventry at home Les and again vs Swindon he has that in his locker however he more than makes up for that with match winning saves like Saturday.

Plus he was outstanding in the Port Vale game. We could have been three down if not for his great saves, including a penalty.

Agree, there can't be that many clubs at our level that show highlights at half-time and at the end of the game.
