Who do you rate the best of City's Goalkeepers?? Got to be Marshall, though the other 2 were special at their levels! :bluescarf: :thumbup: :thumbup:

David Marshall. Best keeper I've seen in a City shirt since my first game in 88.

Hallworth and Neil were decent keepers - (although Neil couldnt save penalties lol) - but Marshall, in my opinion, is a mile above these two.

The only two keepers who come close, again in my opinion, are Ron Healey/Bill Irwin.

Marshall for me with Alexander a close second but Roger hansbury doing cartwheels at Cardiff arms park had a great rapport with the fans and a good keeper to boot

Yea i agree. Mark Grew for his save in '94against Man City. And George Wood, he's got no hair but we dont care...all stood out as given their all for the shirt.

Local boy Mel Rees a brilliant young keeper with a great future ahead of him tragically died of cancer at the young age of 26 just over twenty years ago.

Always seem to have done well for keepers in recent years, however when we've had a bad one we've a terrible one :lol: :ayatollah:

Not forgetting Heaton to the list too, he was a good keeper but sadly for him Marshall just smashed it in the end :ayatollah:

Definitely my top 3 favourite keepers these 3. My most enjoyable days were with Alexander in goals but I'd have to say Marhsall is by far the best Keeper out of the 3.
