Chapman

[Pat O’Cake]

Anyone else heard the rumour he’s out for the season and a new keeper expected today?

[Iron Age]

It wouldn’t surprise me if my back is anything to go by.

[samways1]

Just been to Glanford Park and the players were out training. No sign of Chapman but there was Foster and another goalkeeper I didn’t recognise.

[BarnardFoxtonBarker..]

If true could this pave the way for Rory to return and save us from the NLN. Wrexham did sign a keeper yesterday.

Height of mystery GK? Taller than Chapman?

Well it is Rory’s best season to date he hasn’t let a goal in.

i have just asked a Wrexham fan on Twitter what he is like and he hasn’t seen him play, so I presume they don’t trust him bringing another keeper in

From what you did see, was the goalie you saw another kid? Or did he look old enough to have a bit of experience??

[Iron Age]

No mention of Chappers by JD.

[billpuntonsghost]

If the goalie was leaning against the goalpost it could be Geoff Barnard?

[Awaywego]

0 minutes in the nl or the fa cup mick.

JD said today on Humberside that he was making a late decision on Chapman’s fitness and he’s been rested since training on Tuesday, sounds touch and go, also Pugh and Richards Everton both sat out recent training sessions as a precaution. Sounds like we might be a little patched up tomorrow but we have a squad with options in, including the keeper.

If chappo does play surely JD will have to have another keeper on the bench something he normally doesnt run with…

I hope hes fit to start, if hes out its a big blow , what do members think re Foster stepping in ,it would worry me a wee bit, there was a mention of another keeper

[Iron-awe]

Young Foster in goal isn’t a problem for me, yeah he’s made a few errors, he’s young he’s learning that’s how it is. Chapman has made a couple of errors since he’s been here, that’s life, it happens, it’s goalkeeping. We shouldn’t put too much emphasis on who’s in goal, we should just concentrate on supporting the whole team today and hope they can produce a great result this afternoon.

the thing that worries me is not having a keeper on the bench, possibly if Chapman had have come straight off he might have not aggrivated it the second time.

[Iron Age]

It’s the age old problem, the defence has to have confidence in the goalie, the goalie had to have confidence in the defence. It then goes up through the team. If the confidence isn’t there the team sits deeper and deeper.

[Bartoniron66]

All this results from this stupid falling to the ground once a keeper catches the ball, it’s was only a matter of time before a keeper got injured doing it and with our luck it was ours.
Hope our other keeper takes note! kicks out of his hands and doesn’t do this stupid falling to the ground, not having chapman (if that is what happens) severely effects our already slim chances of staying up, so all in all it’s f@@k up

Burton Albion but he is at Colchester now.

[cassidystash]

A big concern for me is how our players cope with a big crowd. Very few of them will have experienced such an atmosphere, I hope they don’t freeze.

A valid point .. may take them a while to settle down after the initial nerves and tension.

Team should be announced about what time .. 8pm here 2 hours to KO
