For those not around when Keelan played.

He was often called the greatest keeper never to play for England.
He was in an era of world class English keepers.
Peter Shilton and Ray Clemence were brilliant keepers.
673 games is almost never likely to be beaten.

Chris Woods was also a very good keeper, helped in our milk cup winning run.

Gunn is remembered for the Euro exploits but I couldnt put him no higher than 3rd, maybe even 4th behind Green.
