SwintonLad99 Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 Joshua Griffithis West Brom academy keeper. 19 years old kept 21 clean sheets in 44 games for Cheltenham on loan. Looks a promising keeper. Wonder if Darren Moore could use his contacts at West Brom for a loan next season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder what he’s like with a totally shybo defence in front of him though! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marpals Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 Why would he come here ? We are now in the same league as Cheltenham surely he'd choose them if he's going out on loan again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
horny owl Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 As long as none of our current goal keepers get a game with us ever again I’ll be happy only Westwood’s got a bit of talent but he’s made of crumbly cheese and wouldn’t last longer than the first warmup session. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flat Owl Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 Sadly, it’s likely that we are now unable to choose the players we want. As has been the pattern over recent transfer Windows, we might be able to sign players looking to revive a career blighted by injury or poor discipline and application etc Our reputation as a ‘good club’ is trashed. Our ability to pay wages is in question. Would you want to loan your prized up and coming assets to an unprofessional and incompetent club? Attracting the ‘cream of the crop’ is long gone.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beswetherick Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 Christian Walton is out of contract at Brighton, played the full season on loan at Blackburn last year but been third choice at Brighton and hasn’t had a game this time round. If we’re looking at loaning a young lad in then the kid Bazunu who’s been at Rochdale this season is very highly rated at Man City and made his full international debut for Ireland recently aged 19. I’m fully expecting us to go into the season with Dawson and Wildsmith though, and I don’t think either of them are good enough for a top end L1 team which is what we’re hopefully aiming to be 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst meaning no disrespect to Cheltenham, supporter numbers and expectations mean Wednesday in league 1 would be a reasonable next step in his progression. If we are as tied up on transfers as we think we will be, then this sort of low wage loan will be exactly where we are looking next season. I suspect/hope to god the off season recruitment will be geared towards moore's 4231 play out from the back too 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sanchez_Jenks Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 After a goalscorer, a reliable goalkeeper has to be the next priority on the transfer business list. Teams admitted to targeting Dawson and Wildsmith as our weak spots. Decent back ups but not first choice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shetland Owl Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 we do need another goalkeeper, Westwood will be off and I will offload Wildsmith. The defence will be key next season we need someone with pace especailly if Lofra goes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0114 Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 I’d like to us to look at Joe Lumley at QPR. 26 and out of contract, very good with his feet and funnily enough Darren Moore brought him in a short loan at Doncaster earlier this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlyingOwl Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 Personally can’t see us signing a new keeper. We’re losing so many players across the pitch and need to almost completely rebuild the squad, but we’ve got two senior keepers in contract. Yes those keepers are Wildsmith and Dawson but I can’t see that mattering to DC. Hopefully in a new team, either keeper can feel some pressure lift off their shoulders and embrace a fresh start and fans can allow them a clean slate. Personally I’d go for Dawson. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bouncing Owl Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 I think we will go with Dawson and Wildsmith but I’ve got big reservations that either are good enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

behindthegoal Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 I will probably be abused by posting this but here goes. It is essential that the club sign an experienced keeper who can remain fit. If you look across the city one of the first things Wilder did was buy Simon Moore, the understudy keeper at Cardiff to replace the fragile George Long. There must be plenty of understudy keepers who would make the move to get regular football at a well supported team. This is the most important signing for the new season. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
