Well, well Bowie, I thought we were leaving it there Saturday evening, but no, here we are bringing it up again.
This started with me asking the question why Sels gets beat on the six yard box then was on his knees for the second, your reply was try something positive, did I not then say I have reservations about him in every game, but it appears Mr Glasner agrees with me if he’s looking for a new keeper.
I will be very careful if I post again.
Crazy how some get away with criticising players on a regular basis without anyone questioning them.

1956 Sels has been great for us, but if errors start creeping into his game, he will be replaced in January. It's the Premier League, it's ruthless.
2.) 03 Sep 2026 14:27:02
Sels had one good season with us under Nuno. We need a better keeper.
3.) 03 Sep 2026 14:51:18
I don't think Sels made a mistake for either of Liverpool's goals imo. It's purely in the skillset of world class goal scorers and creators, which Liverpool have. It's what they do, despite the best efforts of any goalkeeper or defender. ?♂️
4.) 03 Sep 2026 15:22:31
Glasner knows Henderson and must think he is a superior goalkeeper, otherwise this would not have come to light. That does not mean Sels is a poor goalkeeper at all. I like Og being able to make decisions, and being supported by Big M. So he was allowed to go for the players he wanted; it is just that he did not get them.
He did not want inferior players, just better ones. This is not like the past, when a whole group of players just came to the club, most of whom have now left. So, let Og do his job.
5.) 03 Sep 2026 16:47:14
No, we will stop Og doing his job by having conversations about football. ?
6.) 03 Sep 2026 17:59:45
Stokey, he cost us a point against Leeds.
7.) 03 Sep 2026 20:00:51
Looking at The Free Agent List, how about Joselu???
Only 36???
8.) 03 Sep 2026 20:01:53
1956tree, I also said I was only replying to your post. Then you get obviously disrespectful, saying I was waffling, then on to how you've seen more games than God. And I basically had no right to pull you down.
For me, I don't care if a fan arrived yesterday. Every little helps. And, btw, I'm a Geordie. But, apart from my family and friends, I live for this club. It's banter. And, btw, that's me a lot calmer in my older years. ?
9.) 03 Sep 2026 20:10:29
It must have been the 100th time, Stevie, as the other 99 times he'd have saved that, according to Stokie.
10.) 03 Sep 2026 20:47:37
I think Henderson will come in January, but personally I don't think he's any better than Sels. Not much to choose between them. And, 1956, please don't disrespect Bowie, without him and the others this site wouldn't exist.
11.) 03 Sep 2026 20:48:58
The second Liverpool goal took an upward deflection off of Murillo's boot. It's pretty hard to re-adjust at that range with that much power.
It was a hell of a strike.
12.) 03 Sep 2026 20:50:43
Never was the amount of games I'd seen mentioned, Bowie, Bud. I agree I shouldn't have said you were waffling, and I apologise.
13.) 03 Sep 2026 21:01:55
Very much appreciated, tree, bud. Hope we get on. Great site. Yes, bickering but brilliant. And thank ya, Vale, my friend. ??
14.) 04 Sep 2026 09:01:26
Stevie and 56, I accept that Sels cost us a point against Leeds, but can either of you remember any other mistake he's made recently? He made 2 or 3 excellent saves, as he did against Liverpool. As I said, we tend to forget the other 99 times, because he's a goalkeeper. Nobody mentions Milenkovic's clumsy challenge that led to the free kick in the first place, do they? It's the goalkeeper's curse, last line of defence, always in the spotlight.
I don't see anyone calling for the Serbinator to be replaced.
Skeggs, "he's had one good season with us under Nuno"..... Sels only arrived in February 2024, mate. Come on, you've got to do better than that, mate. ???
15.) 04 Sep 2026 10:02:31
Stokey, I did say if errors start creeping into his game, mate. Vale Red, I've met Bowie for a drink, good bloke, enjoyed his company, but this site managed to get by before he appeared on the scene: me, Skegs, Larry, DTP, Gold Stars, Carlo, Two Tone, Gazi, and apologies to anyone I've not listed, all pre-date him. No offence, Bowie, mate.
16.) 04 Sep 2026 10:40:11
Stevie, mate, don't get me wrong. As you say, the Premier League is a ruthless place and goalkeepers' form and errors made will be closely monitored.
Plus, OG will have been keeping an eye on the future.
Sels is 34, Hendo 29. I know goalkeepers last longer than outfield players, and some seemed to go on forever (like Navas and Lev Yashin back in the day), but time catches up with us all...
17.) 04 Sep 2026 17:48:24
So stevie bud, you've got the tent around him before the vet arrives like a few others ?
18.) 04 Sep 2026 20:48:16
Bowie, Sels is a good shot stopper, he's weak on crosses, always has been, but he's the best we've got.
29 Aug 2026 14:36:25
Can someone explain to me why Sels always gets beat across the 6 yard box then is virtually on his knees when the second goal is scored. Sorry people rate him but I don’t just surprised he managed to get off his line a couple of times.
1.) 29 Aug 2026 17:46:02
Tree, you ever thought of a positive alongside that bud? Coz the laddie has many.
2.) 29 Aug 2026 18:28:17
He's a shot stopper who didn't save the shot because he was virtually on his knees, and at first the ball went across the 6 yard box and he missed it. Just saying, folks on here are very quick to jump on outfield players for bad performances, but for me Sels gets away with any criticism.
He's always stuck on his line when crosses come in; the 6 yard box should be his to command, but he doesn't. I find him very frustrating, that's all.
Rant over.
3.) 29 Aug 2026 18:47:56
Appreciate your reply Tree, and yeah shotstopper. And for me cannot stand his service. Yates could head a ball better than his kicks. But, you know what, bud. He's one of us now. Like your MGW, Murillo etc etc. Love him. Came in when we were f***d. And changed the whole outcome. But, you've probably forgotten that?
4.) 29 Aug 2026 19:08:45
What are you waffling on about? I could be on here after every game with concerns on Sels. Suppose you will bring up the Golden Glove. Well, shock horror, the defenders didn't have anything to do with that. Don't come being clever with me.
When did you start with Forest? Oh yes, when Clough was here. I had 12 years before that, mid 60s. And who's been slagging the club off recently? I think that's been you; it certainly hasn't been me.
5.) 29 Aug 2026 21:18:51
Take notes on this one, Reds. ?????
6.) 29 Aug 2026 21:25:00
Now now tree, it was actually early 80s. Look into my eyes. after the snap of my fingers. Relax. Hope you've got more medals than mutley. I wasn't being obnoxious in any way.
7.) 30 Aug 2026 16:14:01
Let's leave it there, shall we? I will remember not to pass comments in the future.
8.) 30 Aug 2026 18:00:07
Tree, all I done was answered your comments?
10 Mar 2026 21:34:13
I wish Darren Fletcher would shut the f. up. he gets right on my nerves constantly drivelling on and on.
TNT Sports starring Mr Darren Fletcher talking verbal diarrhoea.
1.) 11 Mar 2026 01:04:04
Let's play guess who. ??
2.) 11 Mar 2026 01:36:58
Don't think it's him, RRH. No spelling mistakes. But then he might have bought a dictionary.
3.) 11 Mar 2026 10:52:28
1956? Means he's 60, so it ain't btp, he's much older than that. ?
4.) 11 Mar 2026 11:49:07
Balloons, do a quick recount. ? ?
5.) 11 Mar 2026 13:37:44

6.) 11 Mar 2026 14:51:10
God, I walked into that one. ???
7.) 11 Mar 2026 15:37:55
???? Great site, Mats and Spreling.
8.) 11 Mar 2026 17:35:54
I was born in 1956 and I was glad to lose 9 years for a short while. Back to being an old git again, I guess. ?
9.) 11 Mar 2026 17:43:49
Oi old twit scarfs with ya stokey.
10.) 12 Mar 2026 00:33:24
Stokey that was not my reply please believe me bud. I've been asking the eds about it. Just wrong.
{Ed001's Note - I have asked Ed33 to have a look into it for you. No idea what happened there, I mean you often post gibberish ;-) but that goes beyond Geordie gibberish into just plain nonsense.}
11.) 12 Mar 2026 08:53:48
?? Just doesn't make sense at all. Swear wasn't me.
12.) 12 Mar 2026 10:21:26
Eds I am really concerned about this reply to stokey? I really cannot make head nor tail of it, yet alone sending it. Something just ain't right?
{Ed033's Note - The same IP address was used on your reply to stokey as all your other recent posts. Meaning, most likely [if it wasn't you], either someone else used your device and posted instead of you or another person in your location (so they have the same ip address) knows your username and password.
The solution should be, to change your password on the My Profile page and not let anyone else use your devices.

Its ok ed he just needs time to recover and remember ??
14.) 12 Mar 2026 14:49:28
Will do ed33 and thanks, changing it now.
02 Feb 2026 23:19:02
Well just watched a replay of the palace goal why is Sels always stuck on his line with no attempt to come for the cross coming across the 6 yard box.
1.) 03 Feb 2026 08:41:16
That's always been my problem with sels, he flaps at anything in the air, great shot stopper though, also poor with distribution.
2.) 03 Feb 2026 10:02:00
In Mats defence how many keepers in the Premier league these days can you say dominate their box? Only a few at the very top end? ?.
3.) 03 Feb 2026 12:03:56
Not so bad if he punched it and cleared his area but he palms the ball or flicks it anywhere.
