DiggerB Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 Glad to see it. Decent cover, if ever required and will help developing the age group keepers. LeedsCityRam and Ram1988 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Millenniumram Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 Get in! Now this is the statement of intent I’ve been waiting for! Season tickets renewals will be through the roof at this news. In all seriousness, this is good news. It’s difficult to find a goalkeeper happy to be third choice, but Loach seems a top pro and a great character to have around the club. I’m sure he’s great around the younger goalkeepers coming through too. Ram1988, SKRam, Caerphilly Ram and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gee SCREAMER !! Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 I'm not sure why with two keepers and an up and coming highly rated goalie, who'll want sight of a first team bench sooner rather than later, we're bothering. Do we have wages to burn. SKRam and Curtains 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foulkes has been released. Harry Evans is the u21 keeper that's closest to the first team squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 Another homegrown player for the rules. First team normally train with 4 GKs. Loach makes 3 with Evans as the no.4. Then Evans will go out on loan again this year for more experience in mens football. I’d expect Loach to play u21s at the start of the year as an over age player to give Thompson time to develop into that role. Having Loach around is great for the younger ones and gives an experienced player to coach at academy level. This is great business IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both are a couple of years away (at least) from first team yet… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know what the budget is but the margins can't be huge. Picture a striker up for loan from a club and they might want a loan fee. Or someone saying I've got offers from 2 clubs I'm interested in . Your one but can you up your wage offer by 2 k a week to match theirs. Be a bugger if wages for bloke who's not even on the bench scuppers a very good signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 The academy players most likely to “do a Gordon” are Darren Robinson and Dajaune Brown with possibly Harry Hawkins in that conversation too… The big clubs have either got or signed GKs around their ages already.

Possible but with one year it would be better to refuse. Goalies a funny one. in 5 games you can go from 5 million player to 500k and back again.

It will be also important for squad cohesiont to have good characters to stay at the club in a summer when there will be many new additions.
