Makes sense to me not to ask him to travel down to London on Friday when Wildsmith had done alright in his last game. Friday according to Moore. Missed all the preparation for the game so Wildsmith got the nod. Sounds like BPF is No1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwellOwl Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 BPF will be back in team on Tuesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davetherivelinowl Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 Wildsmith didn't do much wrong yesterday. OK he dropped his first cross but that's clearly because he was fouled (though the ref didn't give it) and his next kick (when his head was still spinning) was woeful. But even when he doesn't drop clangers he just doesn't inspire confidence like BPF has done (eg first few matches). It remains to be seen whether BPF can still inspire confidence now we've seen him drop clangers too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A E Neuman NYowl Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 BPF has made a lot of mistakes over the last half dozen games that have cost us points. The timing was right to drop him even if it is just for one game so he can refocus and try to recapture his early season form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sethman75 Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 It's not BPF that is the problem, he killed it mid week in the international games at a MUCH higher level than L1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barnsleyowl1996 Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 First goal wildsmith made a reasonable save , parried into a decent area and the lads provided a good finish (questionable defending though ) Second goal , he could have come out perhaps BUT mainly poor defending no closing down the cross and then brown not being goal side . Certainly not goalkeeping errors like the ones BPF has been making 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was the problem in those games. The keeper’s shirt should now be Wildsmith’s to lose - BPF needs to wait for his chance and take it when it comes, just like Wildsmith has. If BPF walks straight back into the side then that tells him he doesn’t have to try his best to keep his place. We need to create competition for places.
