Flavs - Championship club is palace

[South Bank Hank]

Palace will remember Flavs dominant ariel display in the second half at their place

Was he good with the washing machine then?

At least he kept a clean sheet.

 

[Sandbach Shrimper]

Can't blame him, he's 30 this is probably his last chance to go to a bigger club. That Kiraly can be a bit erratic so I reckon Darryl might get his chance there. The stick he gets on here is excessive, he's given excellent service to the club.

Who we gonna sign to replace Flavs?
Could have offered him a 2yr deal at least, even if T&B were going to use Mildew as No.1.

That way we wouldn't have to go trawling around for yet another player

 

[lee bradbury is a legend]

thought speroni was their no 1 and not kiraly?
isnt kiraly at burnley?

will miss you darryl, top man and pro.

 

[Shrimper2thecore]

Think this would be a terrible decision from Flavs, but I am happy for him to leave if he wants to go

 

[PrawNZ]

you can name more players than usual on the bench next season so he will deffo be on the bench. He might be getting a nice signing on fee too so good luck to him

You can only name more players on the bench in a Premier League, Carling Cup or FA Cup game. Championship games do not count

I doubt very much he'll get many games there, but good luck to you Darryl, and again, thanks for the memories and that great match up at Hartlepool. A true gentleman, in the Chris Powell mould.

This writer for one will also miss oggling at his wife at various club functions.
No need to go to Meet The Blues day now for sure.

This all feels a bit "Flat" to me. Surely Darryl should have been offered a two or even three year deal to stay on. Why have we got to this position were we let two of our keepers go and replace one with a better deal than darryl.. It does not make any sense to me. Darryl flahavan is a very good goalkeeper and WILL save any team points over a season. Sure he has some weaknesses but he would be the second name on my teamsheet everytime!

What it comes down to is: Tilly just doesn't rate him that much.

Mine too. After I have named the first choice 'keeper.

 

[BoyWonder2]

His awesome on FM, hope SM is better.....

In all seriousness, good luck to the fella. His the best goalkeeper I've seen in a Southend United shirt, but I have to compare him to Wyan Wobinson, Carl Emberson, Danny Gay and Tes Bramble...

Hang on lads Speroni is toliet. I would fancy my chances of displacing him given a few training sessions.

 

[OldBlueLady]

It's kind of ironic that as Darryl leaves to go as a 2nd choice keeper to Palace, that our former 2nd choice has also left to go to Crewe. I wonder if they thought to even offer Collis anything when they discovered Darryl was off? I wish Darryl well at Palace, he's never going to have the same rapport with the crowd there even if he gets in the team, that he did here, and I also wish Collis all the best too. Maybe at another time, with a different team set up he would have been our first choice.

Shouldn't this be in the battle of the beers thread. For what it's worth I think it's a nice refreshing lager to accompany a pizza or some pasta.
