Don't remember Cooper being a 'short arse'. Wasn't as big as Joe Corrigan, but didn't think he was Warwick Davis or anything!

Indeed. He's stopping the ball from going in the which is I believe, the main requirement for a goalkeeper. I don't see why he shouldn't be successful at a higher level either. It's not as if the goals get bigger  |

I meant for a keeper, but yes, perhaps short arse was overdoing it a bit. |

I'd do a little wee if we signed Foderingham permanently

At the PdC evening, Jeremy Wray explained that we have got a very favourable loan arrangement with Palace as they will pay his wages as long as Wes is in the team. Wray suggested they didn't want to fall out with Palace on this and that Palace rate him.
If we can get him on loan for the rest of the season, then why pay a fee for him now when Wes is out of contract in the summer and a lower tribunal fee or even free. If we get promoted, then the prospect of regular football at League 1 level might be more appealing than Palace's reserves. Of course, the risk is another club come in for him.
Of course, Palace owe us a decent keeper as we let them have Fraser for nothing in 1998 (cheers Rikki and McMahon)

http://twitter.com/#!/wes_foderingham/status/149929404573810688 Wesley Foderingham @wes_foderingham Following think im gonna make a few ppl happy this christmas!  I personally buy into the fact he's gonna stay at least until the end of the season, if not longer. this tweet mixed with a few others he's been sending out over the past few weeks... Unless he's fucking with us obviously...

I met Paul Cooper years ago and I was much taller than him and I am 5 foot 11, I also remember meeting Shay Given and no way was he 6 foot 1, Scott Endersby was "only" 5 foot 9 and another old keeper of ours Chris Ogden was only 5 foot 8. |

Footballers (especially keepers) are always listed taller than they actually are. Daniel Sturridge is down as 6ft 2 for example. Shay Given isn't 6ft 1 either. Wes looks shorter than 6ft 1 to be honest.

Flint was on Wikipedia as 6'8", it now says 6'5.5", yet Oakley, who's 6'6" is shorter than Flint (according to Bodin)?

Wes just tweeted that Liam Ridalgh nearly just killed them both hitting a puddle on the motorway!!! Surely we should use the same practice as the Government and Royal Family and not allow more than one of our excellent current back five to travel in the same vehicle!!!! Come on Paolo, sort it out!!  |
