Macca's save

Macca seems to have improved under Russell, were as with Warrington there never seem to improve.

Best goalie for Town during my 40 odd years following, no, but a vast improvement this year and has showed that he is committed GTFC signing a 3 year deal.

Look foward to watching Macca's saves later, back to the fortess of BP on Tuesday for the clash of the 2 in form teams.

Jason Pearcey was shocking aswell.

the same one as Rhys Wilmott & Tommy Forecast

I hope they put a video on youtube of just all the saves he made from that game

Saying that maybe they’ll not bother till after january

Quoted from petethemariner

We have had some great keepers over the years, in addition to the ones mentioned there was  Danny Coyne, Aiden Davison, Paul Crichton, Steve Mildenhall, not forgetting of course Tommy Forecast!

Well he was certainly legendary!   No honourary mention for international great, Nick Colgan?

Quoted from fiveallive

Macca's performance reminded me of Danny Coyne today.

Yep. His save near the end was indeed an absolute worldie but it wasn’t the only one.

I remember watching Town win away at a QPR side featuring a young Peter Crouch one Paddy’s day and Coyne must have made 30 saves, at least 10 of them that he had no right to.

Like Macca, Coyne lacked dominance in the box but Christ he was worth the entrance fee alone on his day and probably kept us in the second tier a season or two longer than we otherwise might.

As someone posted earlier, Macca has already reached legendary status for me and whether he makes 10 years at the club or not he deserves a testimonial. Not many players stick around longer than 3 or 4 years at this level anymore.

I was there that day too. Best goalkeeping display I've seen live bar none. Coyne at his best, pulling off a number of close range reflex saves that we're as good as any goal. McKeown is certainly playing well, and on current form he's one of the best in the league, but Coyne was a different level.

Think we won 1-0 with a late Groves goal but could be wrong.

Crouch certainly got some stick from the Town crowd that day and we took a fair few to that game. Used to enjoy our games at Loftus Road, always a good atmosphere.

I remember it as a Wayne Burnett tap-in from a rebound, but I could be wrong. I definitely remember that we deserved to lose by a huge margin, but aren’t those just the best away days?
