    100% agree. They all do these days and it's poor. It's poor coaching, poor decision making and damn frustrating to watch.

    Why didn’t he just catch the ball; what this trend of pathetic punching? Very poor.

    ""he couldn't have done anything for the goal" says the commentators.

    No but he literally couldn't have done less either. Pathetic punch and then stood and watched yet another ball go past him.

    Great sweeper, **** keeper. Sorry but it's true.

    He's in the side because he's so good at playing as an extra defender and that's fine but in a game where the ball is actually put bear him in the box a lot he's nowhere near good enough and Walton should play.

    Not defending Collins but he got a good clearance on it but Brittan might as well not have bothered with that attempted block. Not been his best game I’m afraid

    It wasn't a free kick, Brittan could have done a lot better. The frustration is Collins part was the easiest for one of our players to get right. Catch the bloody ball.

    I’ve said this since Collins took the spot.

    Collins is a good sweeper and his ball distribution is better than Walton.

    But for agility, shot-stopping and also catching the ball, Walton is quite a bit better.

    We’re lucky to have 2 good keepers, but for me Walton is better. You can’t teach agility, but you can kicking.....

    I don't think there's much in it waltons made a few **** ups earlier in season when playing. Similar levels for me.

    Walton can jump about as high as a 20 stone man,never seen anyone so bad at jumping for the ball,he is a good shot stopper but Collins got him beat on more parts of jigsaw big Val wants

    Plus I think it was Britain who should have done alot better at not letting him get the shot away.

    He should have caught it. The punch wasn't good as it didn't have height or distance and basically was punched to their player at the edge of the area. Britain maybe could have done better but their player showed great composure. Something we lacked.

    but the real issue is it should never have been a free kick. Helik was having his shirt pulled throughout the battle and should have gone our way. But the ref clearly gave them every flop to the floor as a foul, even when if it was their own player or we werent in contact
