    O'Donnell without question. Yes he's made mistakes but so does every keeper and he's made tonnes of saves to keep us in games throughout the season. He seems to be a player lacking confidence in those infront of him and you can't blame him really.

    Plus we haven't had a keeper coach for god knows how long so that hasn't exactly helped.

    Remember when Rouven needed his chance because Doyle kept making errors, and Doyle was considered a mediocre keeper?

    Just saying.

    If anyone thinks Wilson is better than O'Donnell need to give their head a wobble

    We should recruit a gk coach to work on the errors but finances have dictated otherwise....thanks to Mr Rahic

    Now is not the time to be bringing in a relatively inexperienced keeper.

    O,'Donnell has made a couple of errors lately that have led to goals
    However, lets be honest, he must be a nervous wreck playing behind our brittle defence

    So, no brainer for me, stick with O'Donnell

    In O'Donnells defence if we let every team having 50 shots on target every game there is a chance he will make mistakes.

    Why's he not very good?

    10/11 clean sheets this season playing with a defence like we've had and fans pick out a couple of mistakes.

    Saved us from a hiding on numerous amounts of time.

    Can't agree ricc, I never had any confidence in Doyle. Always shat myself anytime a shot with a bit of power went near him.

    Can't say I agree, although Doyle wasn't a bad keeper.

    Sorry Ricc, but this is just a big pile of shite. O’Donnell has kept us in plenty of games this season. Yes, his recent form has been poor, but who can blame him with the quality in front of him.

    To suggest he’s been suspect all season is ridiculous enough, but to suggest Wilson be given a go is ludicrous. And then to top it off, you then add the most stupid statement of all, that fans only rate him because he plays up to them...!

    Get yourself to casualty, because that bang on your head has caused you some serious issues...!

    I'll ask you the same question that I asked Ricc, is the 5th highest clean sheets in the league down to the defence?

    No more than O'Donnell to be fair, he cost us points at Blackpool and last week at Walsall that I can think of off the top of my head, unfortunately being the last man he will make mistakes, I'm surprised he's done as well as he has this those 4 in-front of him, take Cadiss out and they hardly fill you with confidence.

    Have to agree with @BoingBoing@BoingBoing, @Ricc@Ricc, recent criticism of O'Donnell has been largely fair and justified, he has messed up a few times - but over the course of the whole season, he's been one of the best players.

    Wilson away at Macc was quite the sight, looked like a ringer from the crowd had been given the keeper jersey. On that performance alone - trust me it was that bad - I'd have O'Donnell in front of him every single time, no matter how bad his form may be.
