That is the problem. People who think

Ruddy is nailed on if he's physically fit are unrealistic. One move where he gets caught out of position, one moment of indecision between him & the defence & we're shafted.

He's the better keeper, but it's not a risk-free option.

  - Agreed (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 4, 13:07:49

    - That's not the point (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 4, 12:50:20
      - only the keeper would be to blame (NCFC) - SCC 28, May 4, 12:58:41
        
        Maybe it's strange, lol (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 4, 13:11:30
      - Hoots is the manager (NCFC) - phrankin, May 4, 12:58:00
  - Agreed (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 4, 12:46:28
    - I guess if he plays him he's confident he's sharp enough (NCFC) - duke of york, May 4, 12:50:40
      - So you would blame the management? (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 4, 12:58:14
        
        Nobody (n/m) (NCFC) - duke of york, May 4, 13:09:06

        maybe those who don't want him back yet would (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, May 4, 13:06:22
        
        I just want the best for teamk to play personally (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 4, 13:19:36
        
        In the end, whether Hoot has done a decent job this season all rides on staying up. (NCFC) - phrankin, May 4, 13:00:19
        
        Agreed (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 4, 13:18:03
        
        exactly if we get relegated (NCFC) - SCC 28, May 4, 13:01:51
        
        No doubt. (n/m) (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 4, 13:23:57
    - so keepers coming back from injury need a pre season behind them? (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, May 4, 12:49:22
      - If we're at the start of the season the games aren't so crucial (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 4, 12:52:48
        
        then even more important we play our england keeper (NCFC) - SCC 28, May 4, 12:59:36
        
        Okay, I don't think you really get the point (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 4, 13:02:42
        
        No I wouldn't blame the management. GK fuckups are part of the game. (NCFC) - phrankin, May 4, 13:03:51
        
        if he's clearly not fit then they should be blamed however (NCFC) - SCC 28, May 4, 13:07:24
        
        Thanks for answering the question clearly (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 4, 13:05:31
        
        if it's clear he still isn't fit (NCFC) - SCC 28, May 4, 13:03:45
        
        Might be able to during the game (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 4, 13:06:39
        
        Bunn has hardly been in inspired form of late. (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, May 4, 12:56:50
        
        Yeah I know that mate (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 4, 12:59:57
        
        A difficult decision for Hoot. The type of decision he is paid to make. (NCFC) - phrankin, May 4, 13:02:31
        
        Agreed on all counts (n/m) (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 4, 13:06:03
- Truth is keepers always get stick over basic errors. Play ruddy. (n/m) (NCFC) - admckechnie, May 4, 12:33:15
