Like most keepers he is prone to the odd moment of madness and his kicking is sometimes wayward.
And earlier this season he was beaten in one to one situations twice by headers.
But his shot stopping is good, he has a good presence and is confident.
I'm not sure what Lee Camp could offer that is better and so I'd stick with NE. With more first team football I believe he will become even better.
Free transfer bargain, as good as anyone we've had since Marshall.Quote:

We wouldn't have said "improving" if they had equalised from the last minute corner that he gave away for no reason :facepalm:
Best goalie in the Championship.
Agree with all if the above ,he's improved, he makes odd mistakes ,which keeper doesn't?? I remember Marshall not being perfect in coming off his line and distributing poorly .
I first thought get Camp in asap, however I now think ,
he's developing quickly, with every game, he knows the team ,he has great spirit and commitment ,comes off the line with pace ,something Marshall lacked, hes a good shot stopper .
Let's keep him there ,we got this far with him .
Jury still out for me. Got a lot to learn.
Least goals conceded in the Championship, let's drop him :hehe:Quote:

Has anyone said that about him not commanding his area? He definately likes to come out for a cross. Sometimes (QPR) he gets it wrong but he likes to come off his line.Quote:

Warnock said Camp is still some way off being ready for first team consideration last week.
Was he a Warnock signing ? Where did we get him from ?

He's ok and that's about it for me. I'd keep him ahead of camp but he's nowhere near the level Marshall was at.
Warnock signing ?Quote:

All outfield players also give the ball away at some point during a game but usually no mention is made of it afterwards. He's definately better than Marshall was at the same stage of his career and deserves to keep his place.Quote:

He's bang average. We win games despite him, not because of him.
He's even further away from consideration now after getting injured in the warm up before last night's U23 game! Replaced before kick off.Quote:

On your basis, the rest of the squad must all be 'bang average' as well because every one of them has had more than one 'off day' and given the ball away on many occasions in each match. The evidence would however indicate otherwise - look at the table and statistics.Quote:

So only costing us the one goal every four games :hehe:
I read a few weeks ago we've conceded the least amount of shots out of any club in the championship. I think he's well protected by our defence. He's fine - especially on a free - but will cost us a fair few goals throughout the course of the season.
It wasn't a very good pass back to him from Bamba who was dreadful in the Bham game. It was cleared out wide towards Peltier which he was instructed to do. Peltier got caught flat footed and Morrison should have done better. Very hard to criticise Etheridge for that.Quote:

Agreed on supporting them, Always do during the game! Like I said I don't think he's a bad keeper. If we were going to strengthen in Jan other places are definitely more of a priority, was just stating I think he's pretty average.Quote:
