Maybe we should be looking at some of the defenders who played in front of him as well then ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Signing a player around the age of 25 would be ideal so we can have a team that grows and gets promoted together. I thought that was the point. We can't just have half the team under 20 and the other half over 30 In an ideal world I'm sure Cocu would have loved to sign a 25 year old top quality keeper at this level. Unfortunately we're on a limited budget and have mulitple problem positions that are going to cost a fair bit of money to fix. With that context signing one of the best keepers in the division last season on a free is great news for the club, even if he is 35. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I generally think most fans are fair but of course there is always exceptions a young keeper making a mistake is acceptable and as we’ve seen world class keepers can make mistakes but when it’s re occurring errors it becomes a problem Roos will be a good number 2 but isn’t consistent enough to be a number 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What qualification do you need in order to verify the width of the pitch? scouts badge? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will Hughes Hair Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 Wonder if we’re under a soft embargo until the EFL charge is resolved. Might explain the delay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well we haven’t posted any financial results yet have we which would probably put us in that scenario but that doesn’t mean we can’t sign players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaintRam Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 David Marshall was at the game yesterday - just hanging around. Surely if the deal was still hijackable he'd have been doing something else with his time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
