corrigan. amazing at taking crosses. the ball would come in and you could look away and start a conversation with your mate, you just knew the outcome was a simple catch. few dared to challenge him on crosses either. i loved the way he'd come on at mr and flick the crossbar so it wobbled like a bendy twig. he was immense.
me old man tells me he was fat and embarrassing to begin with. keepers eh!

I think we can realistically start asking this question in about 10 years time
Shay has a mountain to climb to even be considered in the same class I hope he manages it

I agree with you. It is still early days for Given.

Joe for me!
Had a shaky start after harry finished up but became a really safe pair of hands and a City ledge!
I think we have always had a history of good keepers at City though...we've needed 'em!
Shay is undoubted class and although he is a new boy in time at the club I'm in awe of his professionalism.
He is a superb keeper and may yet eclipse Big Joe?
Only time will tell!
Really happy with him though!
