Loved Parkes, brilliant keeper and deserved more England caps but he was unfortunate that Clemence and Shilton were around and favoured.
Adrian is a good shot stopper and really agile but doesn't have the communication, decision making or presence of Ludo and the real top keepers. Bargain though and very decent compared to some when you look around the league.
I thought James was pretty good for us too. Had some wobbles which he was famous for but good all round game and went on to play pretty decent at Portsmouth too.

Only need to read Trevor B's comment to understand why Adrian'll be winning the poll....
Absolutely loved Ludo!

Ludo was brilliant....right up until they changed the back pass rule then he went a little dodgy and couldn't fully adjust to it. The Derby away game still makes me sad how West Ham fans treated him.
I like Adrian, he's nuts, shows some passion....I don't think he's as good as shot stopper as Ludo....but it would be great to think that nearly two decades after he leaves we'd still be singing his name.

Adrian was a bit shaky when he came but his performances this season have him up there with Parkes and Ludo for me.

Ludo and Parkes are the best keepers we've had in my lifetime. I started going regularly towards the end of Parkes' career. Adrian is not in the same league as Ludo. He may become as good.

I was never a fan of SHAKA
Still blame him for the FA Cup final defeat

Possibly mate, but I'm pretty sure the actual Sinclair deal was just Dowie and Rowland, and a few quid....Still not sure how we pulled that out the bag!!!

Did we not loan them ludo at the same time and sell him later? I remember him being slightly miffed that we didn't let him go on a free as a thank you

Wrong sniper, it was Dowie and Rowland, and maybe a few quid....

Ludo was immense, can't believe no-one else came in for him when he was at his peak.
Even after his eventual decline he was a gift that kept on giving - part of the most ridiculous swap deal in history when we got Sinclair in exchange for him and Keith Rowland!
Adrian can still improve though. There haven't been many consistently better than him this season. In fairness, Randolph has done brilliantly in his brief spells too (not counting Europa as we really didn't seem up for that at all!)

I always liked jimmy walker and felt if he was taller he could have been a really good keeper.

I was a bit young for parkes. Saw him a few times but can't remember him. I have vague memories of Tom mcallister, but I have recurring nightmares of Allen mcknight. Him I remember clearly. But not for the right reasons.

Ludo was better than Adrian but both are well short of the quality of Phil Parkes
