Fighting for the playoffs....

We are down to the last two weeks of the regular season and we are still fighting for the playoffs.  Right now we are in the eight and final spot but we have Colorado, Galaxy and Columbus chasing us.  As long as we get two points in our final two games we will be fine.  We are playing good football right now or as Juan says "effective football."  He really has gotten us on the right track.  We are defending well as a team and taking advantage of our chances.  If we can continue this in the playoffs we will be a hard team to beat.  As for me I continue to wait, I have been training and playing well in reserve games.  It seems like Matt is Juan's choice down the stretch.  So it is out of my hands for now, all I can do is keep ready in case the team needs me.  Daryl continues to do a good job preparing all three of us for each game.  He knows the game well and allows me to teach Nick(3rd gk).  I enjoy helping Nick, he is a young raw gk with an open mind and wants to learn.  So I have enjoyed talking with him during the sessions,  it reminds me of when I was a rookie and Scott Garlick would talk with me during sessions.  I picked up so much from Scott and hopefully I and giving some of that back to Nick.  I really think Daryl and I work well together and look forward to next season with him.  Plus he is the only gk coach I have had that is shorter than me so I like that too, haha.  It will be an exciting last few weeks in the league so stay tuned......

I have been enjoying the EPL these days now that it is back in full swing.  There has been alot of talk about the form or lack there of from Paul Robinson.  One mistake doesn't make him a bad gk but if this continues to happen then the coach needs to take a good look at it.  How can he be England's first choice if he isn't in form?  Also alot of talk about Shay Given and big Sam bringing in Jussi.  I would hate to see Shay in another team but it is the coach that makes the choice.  Plus Jussi is a very good gk.  I first mentioned this to Chewie way before all the talk started about this.  So I want to go on record and say I thought of this first, haha. 
Well to all my gk friends enjoy your football.

All the best
