Another national league goalkeeper who has moved down from that tier of play, is Andy Isaacs who joined Horsham at the start of the season. With coaching priorities (as far as I know) and other things coming in to play, a shorter trip to training probably included, Andy's experience and playing ability is sure to make a big difference for the side as they combine with their own promotion ambitions.
It will be interesting to see how Andy's unique 'sweeper' style of goalkeeping will mould with the team, given the evolution of previous sides he has worked with. Bromley's counter attacking play and more open defensive positioning had a lot to do with Andy's kicking from 16's and at Havant where he got noticed for his Simon Mason-esque goal scoring opportunity creations.
And for modern goalkeeping in English hockey, it will be of interest to keep an eye on his style and its evolution, continuining to show the style options for goalkeepers and how they can mix their own technical attributes (reaction times, ability to read the play and intercept etc.) and physicality (sprinting speed, kicking ability and so on) to get the best out of their play and the system they work in...
