Kelle Roos

[strachanmcgheegoal]

I never understood the Alexander deal (I mean from his perspective).  Unless there were concerns for Lewis even then.

best and most able back up we’ve had for a while.

He was decent but Cerny was better imo. Someone of the standard of those two would be good as back up for Roos 

[Byrne Baby Byrne]

When did we last promote a youth goalie and he actually played a few games? Ryan Esson?

 

Random note - dismayed to learn danny rogers is 29 years old

Agreed

I see his wife has been named as captain of our women's team.

Most experienced player at 29 as all others in squad (of which there are currently only about 11 plus any youngsters promoted from 18s) are 21 or below bar Paterson

She only signed a 1 year deal. Was hoping she would have signed a 2 which would have indicated a contract extension was on the way for Kelle.

agreeing to be captain hopefully means its probable they will be staying

I know, fingers crossed. I was just hoping if she'd signed a 2 year deal now that maybe it was a hint that the extension was agreed for him too.

I hadn't realised that. Was hoping the same as you really.

Pretty sure lassie football contract lengths are irrelevant. Not like she’s the main breadwinner

Correct 

[Tord31]

Kelle was the player put up for the media today for tomorrows press.

Will it coincide with an announcement that he's taken the #1 shirt or is he sticking with #24?

You make me laugh Tord.

We need to get his contract extended pretty soon. Want him to be tied to club long term 🤞 great keeper

Agreed.  Some of this transfer cash should get punted his way in an extension.  Best keeper in the league, statistically.

[Postman Pats Cat]

I wouldn't get carried away with this guy yet. Before his injury last season he was flappy as hell. In fact I can't remember him making a bloody save. Every shot went flying in. I specifically remember saying to my mate... he doesn't dive, he doesn't save shots. 

Now granted form improved second half, he made some crucial saves. The up turn in defence i put more down to bollock and donny throwing their bodies at almost every shot rather than Roos turning into Craig Gordon. 

I wouldn't be splurging money at this guy yet and I have a fear he will cost us at times this year. His career track record says this to be true!

Only senior team he's been #1 is Rotherham for 1 season; so to answer your question it's unlikely he will ditch 24.

Disagree with this, thought Roos was immense after injury, made plenty fantastic saves, don’t think the defence was as good as people make out given the number of saves Roos was having to make.

Apparently he wanted to keep 24 (picked because of his kids birthday).

We should have given #1 to Doohan or Ritchie. Going all season with no #1 is too crazy for my liking

You credit his play with Pollock and MacDonald in front of him but don't cut him any slack for having the Stewart and Scales combo in front of him.

[starryfish]

The goalie we had in the first half of last season was back with a vengeance today, and the rest, a dreadful performance from him. Made one good block but a huge number of unforced errors, his attempt for the second Saints goal looked weak as fuck as well

Roos has unfortunately spent enough time around Doohan to know he’s shite so Roos standards have dropped again. Needed Gorter back as he kept Roos on his toes

Yes like others he did not have the best of days.

You do realise Gorter wasn't here when Roos was at his best, he'd already been sent back home by Robson.

I’m sure Gorter was on the bench the first few games after Roos came

[Broken_Glass]

I wasn't a fan of Roos when he first came in however he made me eat my words after he came back in from his injury.

St Mirren away he was absolutely atrocious again. Hopefully just a blip as the whole defence was shaky which doesn't exactly breed confidence. 

[milne_afc]

Roos made a couple of cracking saves, header from a corner and a 1v1.

Would’ve lost had he not. He’s definitely a confidence goalie based on what’s in front of him though.
