I believe by the time Coton arrived the backpass rule had changed and that destroyed him as a player. Although he was very much a step down from Coton I would agree(who, for what its worth was criminally underrated in my view, having seen almost all the City keepers since Corrigan I would probably rank second only to Ederson).His whole career was based on that game for Luton.
Tony Coton made him look what he was, an average No2
Ederson is one of my favorite players of today, but distribution apart, TC was head and shoulders above him as a keeper.I believe by the time Coton arrived the backpass rule had changed and that destroyed him as a player.

I see now how what I wrote reads... I was including Joe in that and all round he was a better keeper than Ederson, but the distribution that Ederson displays will change the way keepers are seen foreverEderson is one of my favorite players of today, but distribution apart, TC was head and shoulders above him as a keeper.
And personally think a lot better than Big Joe.
Criminal that he was not an England regular, but TC had a bad reputation, hence the England snub.
He was snubbed by England because Swales used his FA position to veto his selection so he didn't pay anymore cash to Watford.Ederson is one of my favorite players of today, but distribution apart, TC was head and shoulders above him as a keeper.

A name has been banded about by the older fans is Ian Bowyer
In my intro I said some gave City decent service, I would certainly agree that Viera and Pearce both had reasonable seasons and were good to see but they were well below what they had been in their pomp.
Agreed Allison put too much expectation on both him and MackenzieRobinson was a vastly underrated player, the fee got to him and it destroyed his chance with us, went on to have a good career.
RIP.
According to Roy Keane he's a one trick pony anyway. Fuck me this bloke is employed as an expert punditMay as well stick Messi on the list now then...
