Wasn’t he on the bench a lot as under study to Nigel Martyn (once sub keepers were named as a third substitute) but never played a game for us?

May be a cup game but sure I saw him in goal.

I think when he was a youth player at Palace he was much sort after and when he left for Newcastle there was much wailing and renting of clothing.

I lost track of him until this, it looks like he has never achieved the career that was predicted for him and is now content to be no 3 back up keeper at Liverpool.

I do not believe that Andy Woodman played a 1st team game for the club.
I certainly don't have any recollection of him between the sticks.
Apropos Freddie Woodman, he used to clean the boots of Claude Davis at our club.

He never played a league game for us in 5 years. According to Andy he was so bad that in training which ever side he played on got a two goal head start (I am guessing that was tongue in cheek)

Check out the podcast "under the cosh" the Andy Woodman one is Brilliant worth it just for the story of selling his car to Stan Collymore.

Yes, the podcast is VERY funny. He never played a first team game for us and laughs that his main contribution was to organise the team holidays whenever they had a break away.

His tales of his time at Newcastle as goalkeeping coach under Alan Pardew are also very amusing. I knew Andy a bit through my friendship with Deano, Darren Pitcher and Marc Edworthy at the time, he is a top bloke.

In terms of Freddie taking the Number 3 keeper spot at Liverpool…I just don’t know how I feel about that.

 

[thegreatlardino]

be so funny if liverpool have a keeper injury crisis and he plays against us in the Charity Shield!

He brought out a book called Woody and Nord about how his friendship with Southgate carried on despite the divergence in their career paths. It came out a while ago and I can't remember much about it but remember it wasn't bad. Always amused me that the Palace players thought Southgate talked posh and the poshest person they knew was Dennis Norden.
