Gabby'sThighs Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 Hopefully, we'll go up and persuade him to stay. I'd mainly be annoyed that another decent player with resale value has walked away for nothing. A Prem team can offer him the big bucks though. What's he gonna be on? £5k p/w? Even as a keeper, you get a short career in football. Can't blame him for wanting to earn as much as he can.

Yeah, if he's that way inclined he may be tempted to quadruple his money and sit on the bench (or worse) for a Prem team. He may have seen Scott Carson having the time of his life and wants a piece!

8Leeds Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 It’ll be nice if he stays as he’s proven his ability since he’s been here and hopefully he appreciates the opportunity and feels some form of affinity with the club. If he gets a chance to play in the Premier League though I couldn’t blame him if he took it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddielewis Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 I would guess a few clubs are after him in the Prem in order to fill the homegrown player quota which was why Man City have had Carson the past few years. Unless he is totally driven by the cash I would find it weird to see him just rot on some teams bench and get the odd cup start when he's finally found some consistency of playing week in, week out for us. He doesn't seem like the type to want to just sit around so hopefully he re-signs with us. angieram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dean (hick) Saunders Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 Seeing as 50% of prem teams are struggling with ffp. Ditching their #2 or 3 keeper on £30-40k pw and hiring a competent replacement on a free offering £15k could be quite attractive? therealhantsram, Macintosh and FKANorwichExile 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dimmu Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 He reminds me a bit of Roos. Both are awesome shot-stoppers but unfortunately, they have flaws that will block their path to the top. I don't think Wildsmith's downfall is making mistakes, as he rarely does them. I think it's their grave manner and not learning from them. I'd be sad to see him go, but he is replaceable as is any of our players. Mihangel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If, as suggested, he told the club in the summer he didn't want to stay, they should have got what they could for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been in London for 10 years though. Doubt he'd want to play L1 football either. Christian Walton, 28 - solid for Ipswich last season. Looks like he missed the start of this season with an injury and couldn't get back in. A move to Derby would make sense. Luke Southwood, 26 - makes the least sense as he basically has 2 seasons in L1 with Cheltenham, who have been struggling. Tell a lie, he was at Reading 21/22 when they scraped 21st place. It's reassuring that there are decent replacements out there though, while future #1 Jack Thompson gets up to speed anyway! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Van der MoodHoover Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 A real opportunity to develop one of our youngsters into a first team regular..... .....so I expect we'll be making enquiries on the available of Kevin Poole's dad and the corpse of Gordon Banks......

bimmerman Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 I mean, we've got Vickers who's perfectly competent and played at the level higher as well... Its not exactly panic stations if Wildsmith goes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not exactly panic stations if Wildsmith goes I prefer Wildsmith something about vickers makes me nervous especially when coming for crosses I was a keeper for 20 yrs feel like vickers is another roos punching instead of catching when a catch is easier option but I do think Warne wants vickers as num 1 DiggerB and therealhantsram 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im coming to the conclusion I won’t be upset if he goes but should we go up, I’d also feel he owes us a little bit as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
