bigal1946 Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Sources at Gillingham are speculating that our former keeper could be making a return to Priestfield for an initial loan spell that could become permanent next season. Wondered if any Rovers fans could throw some light on this rumour? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J*B Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 He's always moaning saying we don't let him play or even train on twitter - so I don't see why not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigal1946 Posted February 25, 2011 Author Share Posted February 25, 2011 Lol, exactly what i thought! It's Big Al and I'm co-publisher of www.GillsConnect.com Most Gills fans would love to see him back between the sticks but like many feel his wages could be a stumbling block and also reckon there are teams in both the Championship and League One that might appeal to him more. I'll keep an eye open on this Rovers forum for any developments Best of luck for the rest of the sesaon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
92er Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 There has been nothing in the local paper or on Radio Lancs about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Backroom Tom Posted February 25, 2011 Backroom Share Posted February 25, 2011 I always thought Brown did fine when called upon but seemed to get criticsed a lot. His height is his main problem but he's a good shot stopper. Hope he goes somewhere he can do well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

modes98 Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 He is an ok keeper, just to small(height wise) for the PL. He has stated a few times he wants to play and he has no chance here. I find it hard to think nobody wants him in the lower leagues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Presty On Tour Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 Too small and needs a booster seat to drive a bus by all accounts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigal1946 Posted March 2, 2011 Author Share Posted March 2, 2011 It would seem Gills have missed out on getting him on loan as Jason has tweeted his mate saying he's on his way to Cardiff City grrrrrrrrr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAPT KAYOS Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 He is an ok keeper, just to small(height wise) for the PL. strange comment... why just to small for the premier league - are all players in the P/L taller than those in the lower? Is Shay Given too small, Mark Bunn ... Jason is only about an inch smaller than him I agree on the ok keeper - not really done anything wrong when called upon (except maybe the goal in the Cup at Coventry) - strange that people seem to dismiss him so easily.

Considering his build he would need to be taller. Bunn is a lot slighter than Brown and this enables him to get around the goal significantly better. Height is quite important for a keeper and there aren't many under 6ft. Given is a great example of one who made it but he is something extra ordinary, his shot stopping skills are up there with the best. Brown at crosses is awful, Bunn hasn't shown that to be a weakness yet. Brown would do well in the lower leagues but he just didn't have it, whatever it is and his physical attritubes probably hinder him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Southampton Rover Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 I think it's a bit harsh to criticise Brown considering he's performed very well when called upon. He's saved about 500 penalties for us too which just goes to show what a good shot stopper he is as well as being able to anticipate where the ball is going to go. Good luck to the man, I hope he gets first team football and maybe move permanently next season to get first team football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 I don't understand all the criticism of Jason. He's not a bad keeper and has never let us down. We just have a glut of good keepers and we should let him move on with thanks for being a good backup for a few seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
67splitscreen Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 In many peoples/supporters eyes IMO Brown lost a lot of respect after his rant when he left for Leeds. He's done fine when called upon but was never going to be No1 during his time with us, he is so far down the list now, with his contract expiring, a move is best for all parties.

Backroom Tom Posted March 4, 2011 Backroom Share Posted March 4, 2011 He's also lightening fast, remember how quick he was off the bench to deck Beye after he took out Pedersen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAPT KAYOS Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 1. Considering his build he would need to be taller. Bunn is a lot slighter than Brown and this enables him to get around the goal significantly better. Height is quite important for a keeper and there aren't many under 6ft.

Does it - proof? 2. yes agree on height - but its not the be all and end all 3. Robinson is not exactly hey ok on crosses As with others I don't see where people get this idea he is not good enough for us. We are luck that we do seem to have a good back up of Keepers (again) and that should IMO be the only reason to let him go - as he is not happy and want's to play games.
