Has anyone got a video of his slide towards The Boothen at the full time whistle?
P.S. Ryan Shawcross is a fucking legend.

That slide was brilliant- I'd love to see it again. His passion is excellent.
P.S. Yes he is.

It certainly was J. Sorro’s passion is excellent to watch, he is a Stokie (he was just born in Denmark by mistake )

Some on here wanted him 'dropped' after Everton.
Class keeper and got the 'heart' we need for the fight. They ALL make mistakes!

ALOT of people on here we're questioning his ability after Everton and wanting Simmo back in the sticks.
GOARN Sorro!

People were right to question him...he made mistakes! Some werent backwards in coming forwards when Simmo made mistakes.

I believe that save from O'Neil at the near post was an extremely vital moment in the match- I thought it was in.
I wasn't campaigning for Simmo's inclusion but was a little bit concerned after Tommy's Goodison nightmare. Thankfully, he proved his quality on Saturday.

Simmo had had an unbroken run of several seasons UNCHALLENGED. He did great on the whole and I love the bloke.
But Sorro makes a handfull of errors and some leapt to question him.
They were wrong. He's a class keeper who occasionally makes mistakes- like they ALL do!

Dont get me wrong, I'm not totally ruling out Simmo, but in times of crisis (now anyway), I know who i'd rather have.

He’s gotta be up there for signing of the season.
There’s been millions spunked away on keepers this year and Sorro has been just as good, if not better, than most and he was a free transfer.

Somebody would have to explain to me very carefully, possibly including the use of pictures, how Scott carson got ahead of him at the Villa last year,
He was top draw Saturday.

Actually it is measure of the quality of the bloke that he came back from the nightmare at Goodison (where he knows he gifted them two goals) with a display like the one on Saturday. His elation showed at the end with that "slide" in front of the Boothen. Top bloke - we are lucky to have him - and to have got him on a free is amazing. We are also lucky that Simo has remained committed when he has had to take over like he did at Villa. But, I do suspect that Simo will want to move on this summer - he's wasted warming the bench for all but Cup games plus the odd appearance when Sorrenson is injured. If Simo does move on then good luck to him. Carlo Nash for the number 2 spot perhaps?

Simmo is a top keeper and has been quality for us over the past few seasons. That’s probably one of the biggest accolades you can pay Sorro because he deserves the shirt.
I echo Fornie’s sentiments, Simmo will probably move on in the summer and he will do a fine job for another team.

Post by dozintheseventees on Mar 23, 2009 11:56:14 GMT
I too rate Simo and I think we are lucky to have two good keepers at the club. Sorro is easily number 1 for me but I love Simo (In a heterosexual way) and I appreciate all that he has given Stoke City. I hope he stays next season.

John- Carlo would be a lovely acquisition, but only for a year or two. He is 35 now. It would be very unlike Stoke but it would be interesting to see if the mooted interest in Joe Lewis is followed up. Sign him this summer, loan him out for a year or two (while Carlo is sitting on the bench) and by the time Sorensen retires, we will have a decent keeper to replace him.

On MOTD when Stoke scored and they cut to Pulis, you can see Simmo in the background on his feet with his arms in the air and delight etched on his face.
I'm delighted we have Sorenson as No1 but in Simmo we have a talented, honest and committed reserve keeper.
Beat me to it 16quidachuck!

Bick,
He’s a young keeper for Peterborough (I think). He’s had a handful of U21 caps and supposed to have a lot of potential.
One for the future by all accounts.

Sorro has been fantastic for us this season,goalkeepers need confidence so it was important for him to have a good game after his Everton performance.Simmo is a stoke legend in my eyes and i wish him the very best for the future whatever he decides to do.

man of the match for me
I think his errors have been overlooked by many Stokies but thats no to say when he plays like he did against Boro he isnt superb.
a good keeper & clearly a big character

I also think Simmo will move on in the summer, he's never let us down, he got us where we are today, but he deserves to be playing 1st team football somewhere. It will be sad to see him go though.
And i'd love us to sign a young keeper like Joe Lewis, all he needs to do is look at some of the keeper we've had over the years to see that we're a good club, as a goalkeeper to sign for .

He's a class keeper who has had a couple of dodgy games. I'd be surprised if he hadn't cus I don't know of any keeper who hasn't. I've even seen Banksie drop a howler or two in his time here. OS.
