Gordon
Marshall is a whole lot better than Seaman - by a mile.

Big
Marsh is, without a doubt, one of the steadiest and most reliable
goalkeepers in Scotland. Was signed for Killie after Dragoje
Lekovic's rather acrimonious departure from Rugby Park and
immediately made the number 1 jersey his own. One of the more
consistent performers in the team.

Why can't everything blue be Killie ?

Able
to command the box and organise the defence has the confidence to
come out for balls can have a tendency to do rash things but he is
vastly experienced and most fans would agree that they feel
confident with him between the sticks

Overall
performances in pre-season very good. Had no chance wit the Q.O.S.
goal and initially saved well for the Glentoran goal. Had some good
man to man stops.
Getting on a bit now, but still Killie no1.

He
commands the back four and is great in one-on-one situations. He's
getting on a bit though and not as maneuverable as he once was.

Will
be No1 for a few years yet. Our most consistent performer by far.
Unfair criticism when he makes the odd blunder as he's saved us many
more points than he's lost.

Very
reliable and consistent goalie for Killie even as he's getting on a
bit. I thought he may struggle with injury last season but he was as
solid as ever. may be prone to the odd faux pas but tell me a goalie
that isn't - does our new manger see him as our no.1 for the season
I wonder.

While
Marsh may not have the agility or reflexes he had in his greater
days, he is still a solid keeper who has managed to keep the number
1 shirt from Meldrum simply due to his ability to command the box
and make defenders work for him.

Communication
with the defence is first class (probably where Melly is lacking)
Chases the defence out so they're not on top of him. Turns defence
into attack with some superb distribution. Sometimes flaps a bit
when under P from pass backs. Will take someone very good to see him
of in the next 2 seasons.

The
Marsh is one of the best keepers in Scotland and one of the most
consistent performers in Britain.
When Dragoje left, I was worried because Dragoje was a legend but The
Marsh has surpassed him.
Long live the Marsh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
