Bring Back Beni 46 Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 What is your money on Kirkland turning up between blackpools goal with it being closer to home. I would say highly likely Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Chenk Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Just listened to Rob Jones interview from last night, Rob staton asks him about competition for places and Rob says "we have two goalkeepers with the possability of another coming in" Think hes gone. Link to post Share on other sites

If it is to do with travel I will be the first to slate him I used to spend 15-20 hours a week travelling to and from work but think we should hold fire before slating him!

scram 22,457 Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Loach to Ipswich is pretty much a done deal. He came through their youth academy and by all accounts, has always wanted to return. Loach left Ipswich academy at 12 - possibly the most overrated keeper i've ever seen in all honesty and Watford made it clear they wanted him out They are trying to tempt Cudicini or Almunia - along with Del Piero and Inzaghi...

Sam-The-Owl 371 Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Between losing Burton and Macauley from the backroom staff, our inability to complete the most important deal of all for Antonio before the friendlies begin and now losing our most vaunted signing of the summer it isn't really shaping up to the most inspiring pre-season so far. Gardner looks a good signing if he can keep fit mind. :laugh: Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Chow 3,047 Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 apparently we were going to sign klivurt and raziak and we were going to be taken over by russians..... Link to post Share on other sites

I've not made any comment about the abilities of Loach, because I know very little about him ... other than numerous people creaming themselves over him, on here over the years.

The fact they're waiting on it says to me just wait for the announcement before jumping to conclusions either way as it's more than likely a personal issue. Link to post Share on other sites
Manor Owl 128 Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 I think back to Ron Springett who is still the best goalie I have seen for stopping the ball going in the net and catching crosses ( never punching) who throughout 8 or 9 years with us continued to live in London and believe it or not, trained with his old club QPR not with us! My hero. In the end Gordon Banks was just that bit better. Ron did not get down to low shots very well. We share the same birthday so I am biased. 22 July. We will be expecting cards on Sunday.

wilyfox 23,453 Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 maybe the outcome is not clear cut or 100%. there might not be anything to announce at this time. Link to post Share on other sites
Trumpyowl 45 Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 maybe the club wont comment until any signing on fee and agents fee has been repaid ? Link to post Share on other sites
Jazzybmzoo 790 Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 maybe the outcome is not clear cut or 100%. there might not be anything to announce at this time. Agreed mate, it may just be compassionate leave to see where his missus is. If she comes good in next couple of weeks, i'm sure he'll be back. If not, it may be the case he joins the squad later in the season when she does come around. Again, credit to the lad for ordering his priorities. Link to post Share on other sites
blueandwhitematt 1,123 Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Don't think anyone knows what's really going on here. If its compassionate leave, then people could be right that the club are just giving him as much time as he needs, and are trying not to draw attention and pressure to Kirkland by making statements etc. Kirkland perhaps asked to leave, but with Weaver and Bywater we've told him just to take as long as necessary and not rush into any decisions. If its the commuting, and a change of heart from Kirkland, then looks like the club want to keep his departure under wraps until a new keeper is secured, at which point they will release him from his contract with us, without the market knowing about our urgent need for a new keeper and inflating any prices. Who knows - hopefully if it is personal issues, they resolve themselves for the good of the Kirkland family. Link to post Share on other sites
