What's this about? I'd look myself but don't want to go searching through their website.

I'm not copy and pasting it on here mate, nor am I going looking for it and linking to it

Basically, bird who said Howard convinced her to abort their baby used the reason that he wasn't going to be living in England after this year as part of the argument for the abortion. Was on Twitter when it was printed.

Wasn't that in the Mail that story? Not that it's much better like, but still. It made for interesting reading, basically backing up the theory that he is a completely and utterly detestable penis of a human being

Oh, for -- he had six clean sheets this season. Can you at least admit that a clean sheet is an okay game?

Not at all, Joel kept three consecutive clean sheets last year and was criticised for that. Especially the Palace game where Jagielka cleared one of the line and Liverpool game where someone said he had nothing to do.

That was our famous one and only Dithering Dougie - criticised him for keeping three sheets while making out Timmy was the best thing since sliced bread oh for him to be proved wrong, and conveniently get banned!
I love him to be on here now to state his case for Timmy!lol

Robles is only 25 which is very young for a keeper. He came through the system at Athletic Madrid and moved to England aged just 22 to forge a new life. He's represented Spain from Under 16s through to Under 23s.

He has every chance of going on to be a great keeper. At the same age Big Nev was losing out to Jim Arnold between our nets and was at Port Vale on loan.

I'm just saying - he could be great.

He was more favoured than De Gea, who also made some mistakes and the United fans wanted him out, Ferguson new better, lets hope he can match De Gea in the future.
What I like is I am relaxed with him in goal, glad not to be clenching my backside when I am at a game, I think he could be a good one.

So would I, I'd love to see what crackpot theory he'd come up with. I have a feeling he'd just bleat on about Howard's performance against City the other week and say Robles hasn't had anything to do in the last two games

Its a joy when we concede a corner now as the ball is not sent in under the crossbar to test a blithering Coward in Howard - Robles 6 ft 6 inch presence he comes out to punch - dive at the ball with his hands with players coming in - look its just basic keeping something Timmy can not do - our defence seem to like it as we have yet to concede in three games!

He had De Gea ahead of him at Atletico & then once he left for United Cortois came in on loan to be number one!
Not saying Joel is up to those standards but most keepers in the world would struggle to oust both of these keepers!
Im one for giving him the number 1 jersey and getting a young back up in in the summer

I hope he can get a run in the team under RM and prove his worth one swallow does not make a summer ., but on his showings this season He looks 200% better that Timmy which would not be that hard to do!
As you say he could save us millions if he proves himself - as we just use a cheaper no 2 as back up he should have been in 18 months ago!

If he is still in goal in March, then I think we can safely assume Howard will be gone in the Summer.

Joel's league appearances have coincided with me forgetting to change over my Shades of Blue calendar from Jan (Robles) to Mirallas (Feb)

Am keeping it on Joel just in case I jinx it, sorry Kev, but by March (Deulofeu), Joel will have to make his own luck

The first report I heard about Stones was that he would captain Everton, that was after his U21 debut

So the report was crap then? Seeing as it looks unlikely he will ever captain us

On twitter = rubbish, anyway Howard is religious, not a muslim despite what some think, chances are he is pro life so i cant see this being true.

Whats any of this got to do with his bad goalkeeping - RM saying Tims nearly fit and in competition to get his place back?

He won't, and putting Robles name in the same sentence as a true Everton legend like Southall is a disgrace.

Robles has had a similar start to his Everton career as Southall. Jim Arnold came at the same time as Nev and kept him out
of the team. In fact, Southall was sent out on loan for a while.

You've made your mind up already, though, by the sound of it.
