James McKeown always has worldy performances against us. Strange to have him drop two clangers, he's usually one of the best in the division.

I think we might win something this season after all. I vote for No 1.

Close call between 1 and 5 but I think 1 just shades it as keepers notoriously can’t play with their feet so a bit of an excuse for 5.

I'm guessing that empty stadiums aren't good for some players' concentration. There are always blunders, but they seem to be occurring a bit more often this season at all levels.

If these keepers can’t concentrate when no one is berating them how would they concentrate when there are sixty spotty teenagers behind the goal shouting, ‘oooohhhh You’re raspberries arghhh’ at every goal kick? It would be bedlam.

I think it is more to do with the standard of keeping at this level, regrettably with clubs higher up hoarding players up to under 23 level and beyond the historical process of players filtering down doesn’t occur anymore.

No1 has the bonus of a blunder from both keepers, one followed by a equally amateurish blunder from a “striker”.

We've seen some unexpected bloopers at Premier League level as well. I suspect that the adrenaline level isn't what it usually is, and players find it harder to stay fired up.

I've been a fan of Port Vale's Scott Brown in recent seasons but he dropped a couple of clangers yesterday along with Walsall's Liam Roberts

Massive errors, but the first is terrible with him just wafting his leg at it and deserved everything he got. 2nd, it happens, just unlucky.
