Very much so, don’t think he stops bellowing out orders for the full 90 minutes
Well to be honest he did my head in. Did he really think they could hear his bellows? Then his wandering around to almost the halfway line for what purpose?
He will get caught out if he continues to do that against more able sides.
Stay where you are supposed to be.
That's exactly what a goalkeeper should do, If you don't like it take your rattle and yourself somewhere else.

Thought you would pipe up. Very predictable sonny.
I will remind you of that when he gets lobbed and we go a goal down.
Seems you are in control over who can speak on here and attend matches.
Enjoy your anonymity from your keyboard.

Prem teams not in Europe yep
Newcastle or Leeds at Holker Street would be ideal; full house and TV coverage……we’ll probably get Shrewsbury away

Morecambe at home would be nice - they owe us a match in front of fans for getting promoted

well i was sat 2 rows behind you and I could hear Farman over the noise of your rattle - so the players probably could hear him....
The rattle was only used twice.
The difference is the players are concentrating on what is in front of them and more on what is coming from the management than his orders.
Could you actually hear what it was he was saying or just the general noise?
Lobbed goals are the thing at the moment.
Please introduce yourself on Saturday as I like to know who I am speaking to . Chipmunx doesn't exactly do it.
Or do you prefer not to be identified with your comments?

A shame this is developing into an (unnecessary) spat. Some goalkeepers (seemingly Farman included [who had an excellent game]) like to be very vocal to keep their own awareness/alertness/readiness at a peak throughout. Arguably it helps the defence as well.

Will be a pleasure to meet you but won't be able to shake your hand of course.
Yes a few of the faithful haven't got their usual seats for various reasons.
The cellar has one candidate already---,he just doesn't know it yet. He is on trial.
Upon Paddy's release he has now taken up professional boxing and has his first bout next month.
He earned his spurs defending us when attacked at Atherstone.

Defenders (I know I did when I played) always prefer a vocal keeper warns you of opposition attackers etc etc They are the eyes of the defence. Mind you I often chose to ignore the keepers advice at times! Often led to some interesting conversations with them. One thing a keeper always did when he let a goal in was blame the defenders - never their fault. So if Farman gets lobbed it will be your fault Holkerbird for not warning him
