This has really pissed me off
Calderwood has, practically overnight, gone from saying Langfield is, beyond doubt
"The second best 'keeper in Scotland after Craig Gordon"
and
"Deserving of a place in the Scotland team"
and
"I expect him to sign a new contract here shortly," he said. "I'm delighted because he's been great."
In addition, whilst everyone with sight has been appalled by The Clanger's inability to distribute the ball with a modicum of success and his costly mistakes, Jimmy backed him 100% and turned on anyone who criticised him.
BUT NOW, beacuse Clanger had a pished go at him our leader is now saying:
"Dons boss Jimmy Calderwood told BBC Sport: "He slipped up two or three times at the end of the season.
"The third one was maybe just a little bit over the top."
Now why did it this incident for Jimmy to admit he "slipped up" at the end of the season? He's still not telling the full story as his mistakes cost us dearly throughout the whole campaign, but to me this just shows Jimmy is a liar and he has been covering up for him all season. From what I've heard, he knows he bought a donkey in Derek Soutar so he had no choice but to stick with Clanger and would never criticise him no matter how shocking he played. It seems to make sense now.
It seems to me like another classic Calderwood. Don't agree with him and you're out. Exactly what happened to Esson. What is it with him and 'keepers?
Can you imagine Soutar playing in Europe when he played ONE first team game last season (in the cup) and had no pitch time in the league at all? Brilliant, eh?
Willie & Jimmy had better get moving and get another keeper in. Like they should have during the season when Clangfield was letting the entire team down. I can't believe it's had to come to this.
