HOOTIE AND THE SHIT TU Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 1 hour ago, Teddy Nickelarse said: That's a view that has to be respected as it is founded on recent rather than historic witness, albeit one person's view. As you say, we will see. If the coaches don't think he's improved enough then I'd expect that he'll go out on loan again as kicking his heels on the bench wont do him any good. For what it is worth, the Exeter supporters love him I like him, I think he is a better keeper than Wildesmith, but he doesn't command his box enough for me His reflexes are first rate, his positioning can be questionable, but we saw that a few times from BPF Goalkeeper is such a specialist position, I wouldn't be worried if Dawson was in goal, but over a full season I would prefer someone who bullies his defenders, and because Stockdale is available on a free, it's a no-brainer for me. 3 1 Just a bloke, who used up all his luck in one go when he met his wife.

I keep telling myself to stop biting and ignore the posts But some posts are so nieve "The goals are the same size" "He was awesome in league 2" "We should give him a chance" I want to get out of this division, to do that we will need a good solid keeper, there's one available on a free that is better than Dawson. Ideally I would want better than Stockdale, but he's available on a free, get him signed up and if someone better than Stockdale becomes available, sign him up as well. 4 1 Just a bloke, who used up all his luck in one go when he met his wife.

I think that probably is the plan, and proof that DM doesn't rate Dawson, as the focus is short term and on promotion....if we make it to the Championship then we can look at a better calibre of goalkeeper to move us forward, cause Wildsmith and Dawson aren't capable of consistently performing in the Championship! I dont ever want another season of chopping those two around every other week...nothing filled me with more dread than Westwood getting injured in the warm up.....some of the players in our shoddy Championship teams might have felt the same too. You don't get promoted with clean sheets, we need consistent goal scorers, we only score more than 1 goal 23 times last season. We need a decent keeper but if paying for one means we have no cash for a decent striker and some attacking threat on the wings then give Dawson a chance and see what happens.

Fair comments. They really do love him down there. According to the bloke who coaches them, Dawson has improved his command of his area, but either way, we really can't complain about bringing in one is the best 'keepers in the division last season on a free. Whereas there may still be question marks over Dawson's ability over the course of a full season at this level, there are no such doubts over Stockdale. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barnsleyowl1996 Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 Solid signing if he comes for a year or 2 can’t deny his record last season and had a good career really . Also weakens a rival . Plenty of good keepers who are well into their 30’s .

You really do talk so much crap. Nearly every single successful side has a good defensive record and keeps clean sheets. Honestly, we are all dumber for reading what you post. 3 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks to me (at best) he will be no2 if no further loans.... For me it's neither about nostalgia nor about second chances but merely about assessing his current level after his return from a highly successful loan season. Whether he has improved to a level where he'd be a good keeper for us. No more no less. The naivety for me would be writing him off based on out of date evidence and I'm sure that Moore and his team will be making a more forensic and up to date assessment than any posters on here regardless of our gut feelings. However it pans out and, I trust Moore to make the right judgement, I'm pretty sure CD won't be warming our bench for too many games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are probably 75% of teams in the leagues looking for a decent striker. They're as rare as hen's teeth and as a result expensive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s garbage. Watch the Ivan Toney video from the season before last and it says it all. He says something on the lines of ‘We know their keeper(Dawson) parries everything so that’s why I was ready to pounce.’ And that’s the thing he’s supposed to be good at! Don’t get me even started on his communication skills and commanding of his area. Wildsmith is also poor but he’s better than Dawson.
