Richard Wright

[ant london]

I don't know whether this is funny or sad?

Oh, and in club like ours we should always have at least one decent keeper coming through who'd be third choice. Richard Wright FFS! Guy was actually pretty shite even when he was highly thought of in Ipswich. And this was like ten million years ago.

Was Richard Wright in net for them when we played them in the FA Cup and Eyal Berkovic scored that screamer from the corner?? That really does feel like 10 million years ago I have to admit

I was wondeirng where we going to replace Taylor, im surprised we let him go as we was popular with the lads and happy to be third choice. Wright seems perfect for the role i was hoping we would get one of the out of contract keepers like say Gordon but thats asking a bit much and a bit of a waste of wages. Wright is perfect for the role imo. Good signing.

For a 3rd choice we could have done worse.

Taylor btw turned down a new contract from us, wasn't let go.

o did he?thats fair enough, prob has ambitions to be a second choice not a 3rd choice :P

FFS use one of the youth lads for this. Thats what they are there for.

Yep, serious ambition from Taylor. He knows he has the quality! ha!

[simplytolmie]

He is one of the 4 keepers on the City squad shoot today I thought it was him when I watched it this morning but dismissed it as bollocks.

But no Marwood has done it again. Marwood is ex Arsenal so it makes sense he loves to buy anyone to do with Arsenal. I think we may make a late bid for Anders Limpar to fill the void left by AJ.

this is the link to the photo shoot. Wright is seen on the back row and he's tiny compared to the other keepers.

Julio Cesar to QPR, Richard Wright to Man City. I can't help but think there has been some kind of mix up here ... With Richard Wright, Scott Sinclair & Jack Rodwell, are we filling some sort of home grown quota?

[Hazy2]

Is Pearce back Have I been dreaming about our wealth,and trophy winning.

I think we are.

[Florida Blue]

Can I just ask who you lot expected us to get to take the role of 3rd choice keeper that would never play? It seems a decent replacement for Taylor to me.

HART
PANTI
GUNNAR

I thought Nielson got released?

Nielson was released but resigned when Taylor left.

As for Wright, he is a hell of a good drummer.

Without a doubt.

Bobby doesn't use youth outside of training. he only buys.

[DoomMerchant]

To be fair, Live at Pompeii is a fantastic effort, and he plays a really prominent role, and is one of the....

Excuse me? What's that? The goalkeeper? Fuck me. You've got to be joking, well surely i thought you meant the decomposing corpse of the Pink Floyd keyboardist. This is breaking news, isn't it!

[Nigels Tackle]

on the bright side, he's still better than david de gea....

[Dameerto]

What is the fucking point of having an EDS and academy setup if the brightest young keeper doesn't even get a lookin as third choice senior keeper?

What he said

[ross.mcfc]

Remember him and Weaver were the future of English goalkeeping.

I’d rather bring Nicky Weaver back.

[paulmclaren]

It's decisions like this that makes me think every single player in our youth setups will never get a crack at playing for city ever.
What is the point in bringing in someone like Wright when we have youth players there waiting for the bit to chomp at?
Absolute joke.

Funnily enough he would fill Club grown player quota and would actually make lot of sense from that perspective.

It was Wright, Weaver and Green who were supposed to make goalkeeper real strength for England. It was position of weakness until Hart.

Weaver would have been a top keeper if he wasn't a pisshead.

To bridge the gap between them being absolutely nowhere near it (as of now) & possible 1st team squad keepers (as of a few years from now).
