Kval
Cennamo
Penny

In all seriousness I can’t look past Heaton, Pope and Jensen for this generation.

Pope
Heaton
Pearce (more for being part of my earliest years following Burnley, than ability).

Seen them all from the 1950's and we've had some brilliant keepers.

But Colin McDonald was on a different level.

Blacklaw, Stevenson, Heaton.......we've been blessed over the years but McDonald was exceptional.
Couldn’t agree more…McDonald certainly was exceptional with Blacklaw not all that far behind in the days when goalkeepers weren’t protected by referees like they are now.

I'd agree with these three out of the ones I have seen. Never saw McDonald, though.

Just on the basis of being a GK and not playing out from the back I would say Pope was the best .
