Re: Gabor Kiralyi
Finished his career where it started with his home town club.

One of our worst keepers. Made the simplest of saves, an acrobatic miracle. Thinnest, disappearing mass on every one to one.

I gave up with you on goalkeepers when you gave Lee Grant 3 in the player ratings at Watford after a 3-1 win and said it was because he should have saved Drinkwater's shot in the first minute, this a shot that went wide.

Palace got shot of Kiraly and when we signed him, my future son in law laughed - he had a student Palace season ticket at the time. He was one of those joke cult heroes, there. Gaborrrr!!!!

He’s had a great career but he was no more than average in his short spell with us.

Re: Gabor Kiralyi
No, the referee was not a bit lax, he got it 100% wrong. One of his duties at a penalty is to ensure the goalkeeper is ready to face it. He should not under any circumstances have blown for that penalty to be taken.thatdberight wrote:I'll just check the list of things a keeper has to do once a penalty is awarded.

Re: Gabor Kiralyi
Danny Coyne. That was the Welsh keeper, who was not very good at all, despite SC raving about him.
Think it was a case of not liking Beast, so every other keeper was magnified to world star, in his eyes.
Grant, I saw, plag a blinder against Villa, in the League Cup. Stole Beasts place and was never the same quality, thereafter.

Re: Gabor Kiralyi
A very tidy 25 yr career playing 800+ games for numerous prem clubs, bundesliga etc inc 100+ international caps . While never a world beater it’s a career he can be immensely proud of .
In fairness he was no better or worse than beast imo, though not as good as Grant technically

Re: Gabor Kiralyi
Kiraly didn't play much for us and I can't say I have any thoughts/memories on how good he was either way.
Lee Grant though? He was gash, and I know I am in the minority on that so people can have a go! I cannot believe he cost us a million quid (or just under, from Wednesday). Kiraly was better than him, then again most goalkeepers know that when you make a save you should try and push the ball wide and not 3 yards in front of you begging for the tap in.
I don't mind saying my opinion that before Tom Heaton, I think our most consistent keeper prior was probably Paul Crichton. Michopoulos, Beresford Round 2, Jensen, Coyne, Grant, Kiraly, Penny (think there's a few I am missing) were all bang average at the very best. We certainly had a long stretch of mediocrity after Beresford (first time round) and Crichton.

Re: Gabor Kiralyi
I was young at the time but one of my lasting memories of Paul Crichton was how far up the pitch he'd get when the action was in the oppositions final third. I swear he was near the centre circle at one stage.

Re: Gabor Kiralyi
Really goes to show how far we've come and how good we have it now. I thought Grant was as good as we could hope for at the time, and was worried when he left. But the guy who sits next to me couldn't resist any opportunity to criticise him. I recall on one game, Grant back pedalled to tip a 25 yarder onto the crossbar in front of the cricketfield end'. I stood to applaud and the guy next to me screamed 'kin'ell Grant you useless c*nt'. Not quite sure what he was expecting but it's funny how some players can divide opinion.jedi_master wrote:

Re: Gabor Kiralyi
He was bloody awful. I'll always remember that shot he went all 'Massimo Taibi' on at home to wolves when we had a very faint chance of reaching the play offs. As for coyne, he was a decent keeper before us but again was gash for us. I don't think we won many games when he was in goal.

The difference between Jensen and the likes of Kiraly, Coyne, Grant?
Jensen was a poor keeper who put in some extremley good performances and for one year consistently performed like that week in week out, the others were average keepers who performed averagely. I remember Grant having a good run but was he any better than Beast on his day?

He has been a decent keeper in his time. I will refrain from my usual disagreement with CT over the Hansbury V Neenan debate, as every time it happens CT gets it wrong

You are spot on with Kendall making his debut at Chesterfield. He played in the first two games against Derby and then the nightmare at Blackpool.
Kendall had been a really good goalkeeper but he’d retired and was brought in by Mullen to coach. Mullen, for whatever reason, chose to play him. That day at Blackpool was his last ever game.

Re: Gabor Kiralyi
I remember going down to London on a Friday ready for the match against qpr on the Saturday. Danny coyne was in our goal. He went to clear the ball missed it completely and qpr scored into the empty net whilst coyne was down on the floor. He received treatment and was stretched off. Remember saying at the time I've never seen a keeper get subbed with embarrassment. Little did I know how serious his injury was at the time.
