I love lists that have conducted by British fans. Some of those rankings are insane.

Yep and VDS recently broke some sort of clean sheet record held by said keeper, which left the commentator to say 'he's done it, edwin van der sar has beatn death'

Nigel Martyn was a good keeper but not better the David Seaman or Tim Flowers!

I didn't know about the Death record. No Nicky Hammond in that list as well, who can forget his legendary kicking! (the goal Adcock scored for Posh in 92/93 comes to mind!)

Jan Tomaszewski kept out England in '74 and was also named the best keeper in the World Cup - he's nowhere on the list.

In recent decades the Belgians Jean-Marie Pfaff and Michel Preud'homme were both good in a great era for their nation while Ricardo Zamora, Frantisek "Cat of Prague" Planicka deserve a mention too.

Steve Death was a crap keeper, we always scored past him, he had one of the biggest jaws in football...second only to Jimmy Hill!
