Love Doyle and would have hoped that once Foster was loaned out he'd have had the first opportunity in goal. Boaz or no Boaz. The Championship season of 06/07 he featured in 22 matches, conceded 18, kept 8 clean-sheets, and made over 120 saves... He's proven to be very capable at this level.

That said, now that Myhill has been given the number 1, and the chance, he should be given the time. Hart had some rough matches early on, and patience was rewarded.

And without him that season we would never have got promotion.fact IMO

I remember Doyle saving an important penalty in one match as well. Everyone was raving about him after that.

Anyone remember which match this was?

Wolves away. I think we won 2-3. Jerome scored a sublime goal in that game.

I was right behind it in row bb at the front. No deflection, but it seemed to swerve both ways. Nevertheless, the ball flew in below shoulder height slap bang in the centre of the goal, right at Myhill's starting position. It was a rocket shot, but definitely a keeper's error.

I won't be jeering him, but he looked shaky against Everton, poor position for the free kick goal and flapped at the second, He doesn't fill me full of confidence, just hope he can turn it around.

Hard to believe we didn't win a game today that we dominated for long periods. They never looked like scoring until Gomis conceded that dumb needless free kick. They hadn't looked like scoring, then suddenly they were gifted a set piece in a dangerous position, seemed the only way they could score.

We were great down the right, but weak on the left, with Ridgewell looking disinterested and Fahey just dire.

If we had had a decent foward on the field today that could make the right kind of runs, we would have won. I fear more of the same, dominating games but not winning, until we get some strikers fit.

Well from the replays that were shown on Sky basically straight after the match, with a view from behind the ball, you could see It take a slight deflection. Now with the ball traveling at the speed It was that slight deflection would have decieved all but maybe the best and that's only a maybe.
You could see Myhill was on his way to his left as soon as the ball was struk, but the deflection carried It back towards the middle of the goal, over his shoulder.

Imo I think people are looking for an excuse, a sole person to blame, and because we no longer have the 'worls class' Foster they will turn their attention to the not as good but still a decent replacement In Myhill.
Get over It people, Foster Is gone! And more than likely won't be coming back. Get behind the players we have now FFS!

I was worried this would happen! Myhill is taking the brunt of ill feeling of the foster switch! He deserves the chance to prove him self!

From what I saw of him at hull he looked a good keeper!

Those fans who jeered him need to find a brain... Bang out of order! This team is going to need our full backing! Jeering 1 of our own is just stupid, goal keepers like strikers are all about confidence... Like a few have pointed out hart lpoked a little dodgey at first, there were calls for Taylor to keep his place after the man city game... But we got behind him, built a relationship and his confidence!

They sure did..... and I was one of 'em. Hart was a complete mess up to and including the Sunderland game and I remember thinking he was was the worst goalkeeper I'd seen at St Andrews; thereafter he was brilliant and without him we'd have lost at least six of the games during our unbeaten run. Strange game, football.

A goalkeepers game is all about confidence, myhill and Doyle have not had extended runs in the first team for a long time, myhill is not a bad keeper watching him yesterday his confidence was not there and this only comes from playing games and getting used to your defence. I have seen myhill on a number of occasions mostly for hull where in some games he was brilliant not least when they played us. Don't knock the guy just yet, just remember Ben foster dropped quite a few clangers for utd when he got a rare start over van der sarr.

I cant believe we get threads like this after one game.

I don't think it is one game.

Before yesterday's game some Blues fans told us that they were worried about our keeper after watching hi last week against Everton.

I also say if he is "not bad" then why was he an understudy to Scott Carson, who WBA have since got rid of?

Just saw one of their goals and it was from a long way out but took a nasty deflection

I was right behind it I'm certain it took no deflection.......

Same I was on row LL just to the right, looked like it went straight in. I was shocked at how Myhill didnt get it

Hart and Foster both struggled when they first arrived, don't hear to many people moaning now.

Myhill will need working on for sure but he's got the best coach to help him. Most of it's about confidence, which I think he lack's at the moment.

Give the bloke a chance.

Good point, Brian! I think we've assumed that Myhill is too long in the tooth to improve... But who knows. I am sure, like the rest of the team, we need a little bit of patience.

Bit of support here wouldn't go amiss. We have been spoilt in the goalkeeper area for the last 2 seasons so don't expect him to be as good as Harte and Foster but for christ sake get behind the bloke. Writing him off so early helps no one.

Same here, no deflection, he didn't seem to make any effort to save it at all for me, should at least be putting his arms out to save it, but for me he looked nervous, REALLY nervous!! Doyle deserves a chance to show his potential whether its in the league/cup/europe as he really hasn't put a foot wrong every time he's featured in the first team!

As soon as Jack Butland returns form the under 20's England squad I would put him into the team.
For the matches he has played so far for England in South America he has been man of the match for England, saving a penalty along the way.

He has waited long enough and I am npt convinced with myhill.

If your not convinced with Myhill wait till you see Doyle.

There Is a reason Myhill was braught In, because Doyle just Isn't up to It.
Saw him against Coventry last season In the FA Cup, he was abysmal, every ball that went anywhere near him he flapped at It.

Would rather have Myhill In goal every day of the week!

Myhill was appauling in the last two games letting 4 past him as if he's stoned!

The games against Everton and Derby are available on Blues Player, what them back, see hoe slow he is, he's a liability on his non-performance so far, we could have won both those games with Colin Doyle in goal IMO.

You can't drop him after one game as it will wreck his confidence... CH needs to have a look again after 5 or 6 game and them make the decision...

We have been spoilt the last two seasons with Hart and Foster so whoever we bring in will not be up to their standard... give the guy a chance ...

Look at It like this.

Bruce was here for 7 seasons, he didnt think Doyle was anything more than a 2nd choice keeper.

McLeish was here for 3 and a half seasons, he didn't think Doyle was anything better than a 2nd or 3rd choice keeper.

Now we have Chris Hughton, we let our #1 keeper go, but Instead of giving Doyle a chance he went out and got another keeper In. Obviously he aswell don't see Doyle as anything better than a 2nd choice keeper.

Myhill was not at fault for either goal at the weekend Imo, the defence was absalutley awfull, there was no marking and no closing down at all.

The second goal did take a deflection off of Caldwell, It was evident from the replay SSN showed straight after the game.

And I'm not going to even count the Everton game as he hadn't even met his team mates before then.

People really need to get over the fact that Ben Foster has gone and won't be back, Myhill might not be a Foster but he's the best we have atm. Not just my opinion, also the opinion of the BCFC manager Chris Hughton aswell!

Has Maik Taylor retired or found a club yet? Might be worth trying to get him back?
