Is Joe lumley our David James?

‘Calamity James’ - such a good keeper, but part of what he was gave him that.. erm ‘thing’ will ‘Sloppy Joe’ be seen as that crazy awesome keeper? A cult hero even?

Thirteen clean sheets under Lumley this season..

 

[FabioPorkpie]

No.

The David James that played nearly 600 Premier League games and 50+ times for England? No, Lumley is nothing like David James

The New Rene Higuita?

After being called out publicly I doubt we will see him again for a very long time if ever

I think CW said he should have saved it.

I'll bet you 3 likes he doesn't play Friday or Monday

 

[r00fie1]

Utter rubbish.

 

[Canyoudigit]

The New Rene Higuita?

Soapy joe is the worst keeper we have ever had.

Nah, he’s not that bad. No where near. 13 clean sheets this season, concedes on average a goal a game..

Huddersfield, Luton, Blackburn, Coventry, QPR all conceded more than us.

We’ve scored the same as Blackburn, one behind Sheffield United and two behind Huddersfield.

We need to be better than Sheffield and Huddersfield.

Sounds like he’s defo starting on Friday!

 

[Stocko]

He will be playing tomorrow, and we’ll all be shyting ourselves whenever he comes rushing out of his area

 

[Colgates_shaving_foam]

David James was a really good keeper who won teams a lot of points but who made the odd massive mistake.

Joe Lumley is a bang average keeper who makes a massive error every single game, sometimes the opposition score from it sometimes not.

No, Lumley is nothing like David James unfortunately.

You’ve never seen Brad Jones or Ben Roberts I take it

 

[Centralscrutinizer]

Nobody seems to be able to appreciate what they're witnessing with Lumley. A work in progress and the genesis of a new groundbreaking lightening sweeper keeper role.

and Ian ironside and even Maurice Short back in the late 60s, early 70s .... joe takes the title

Tbh I'm not really worried when he rushes out. Usually works doesnt it? How many times has he been caught out doing that?

I am worried any time an opposing player has a shot on target, from any range and angle. Cause that's bizarrely where Lumley struggles. You do wonder how he got in to this line of work.

 

[newyddion]

With Fry out we can just push Lumley a bit further forward and afford to put another attacking player on the pitch!

Don’t be tempting fate! Someone might read this and tell them to shoot towards the goal!!
