Steve Ogrizovic

[BlueAmigo]

A great read

 

[Walken]

definitely a 90's throw back! Wasn't a bad player by any means and looks in really good shape now at 61. Cray to think coaches told him he was 'too big' to be a keeper, it seems british coaches by and large have always had backwards prerequisite ideas no matter the era

In 2003 Ogrizovic was the subject of a hoax that said that he had been kidnapped in Kazakhstan and an online petition was set up to campaign to get him released. This was proved to be false when the Coventry Evening Telegraph interviewed him at Coventry City's training ground at Ryton-on-Dunsmore.[12]


Shame he didnt get kidnapped tho.

Politically Ogrizovic is a Conservative.

And now we've got people criticising Pickford for being too small at 6ft 1. Strange world.

I'm sure Sheffield Wednesday had a goalie under 6ft at one point. Hodge?

I remember that whole he’s too tall to get down to the ball thing being said about keepers then .

Wasn’t Paul cooper under 6 foot as well ? I’m sure he was

I remember kevin pressman for them, decent keeper

Nothing to do with oggy or pressman but Sheffield Wednesday related , do you remember the randomness of Paul Warhurst the defender being stuck upfront due to injury and scoring an absolute hatful in about a 10 game run ?
