We were lucky too if it wasn't for Bellamy...or any of the oithers too.

He made a good save with his feet from Giggs , 2 saves from Berbaflop which he headed fairly straight at him and then pushed one over from Giggs which was straight at him.Of course they were all good saves but not that special and what we all would expect a decent keeper to make.
i kind of agree with you Dougie. the one i needed him to make was on Owen's ball. the berbatov stops were down to berbatov not having any fucking ability in the air. I *do* believe another keeper could easily have let one of those in though, so dont misunderstand how i feel about Shay. I think he's fantastic...just wish he could have found that something special to keep Owen out. it's asking a lot i know, but...it would have changed our lives yesterday and for a while to come for sure.
