Let's not get too hung up about the goal keeping crisis. To bring in a Heaton or Forster looks good on paper but neither plays out from the back and in effect would hamper our style of play. The youngsters may not have the league experience but they play this style week in week out and train that way too.
KP in at centre back is no problem as it will give Forshaw the holding role and allow Saiz back in. Personally looking forward to Saturday MOT.

We’ve got about 13 youth keepers lining up we should just use them. Blackman never got a game anyway.

More injuries! IF we do dip into the emergency loan market who, of the half dozen names bandied about, do you fancy getting. Personally Tom Heaton would be a good shout followed closely by Fraser Forster.

Id take either of them two mate, both good quality keepers. Let's hope we do get one of them.

Could do with either of them for Saturday, these are tough times with injuries. Hopefully Pontus will be back mid week. For me strengthening is a must in January to maintain a challenge, with quality not quantity the order of the day. Surely Radz, Orta and Kinnear realise that this is the season to get promoted and won't let us down.

PL rules say we can't get a keeper.

Agree0 Disagree0

22 Nov 2018 23:03:45
Apparently Bielsa, doesn't think we need to bring in players to cover our defence as pontus, ayling, and Berardi will be fit soon. He likes to work with a small squad, no problem then guys as long as we stop teams attacking for the next month or so.

Guys, I don't think our Premier League promotion is official until May.

Sorry, it's the FL rules, emergency keepers from the FL only, and knowing the FL they'll tell us to FO anyway :)

Agree0 Disagree0

24 Nov 2018 12:08:40
So you mean we can’t get a PL keeper but we can get a champ keeper?

Agree0 Disagree0

25 Nov 2018 10:49:27
That's my understanding of it, from another football league club only.

Well guys what do we think about that? No BPF and no Jansson!

Poor Blackman was set to start too.

it said in the press conference it was a knee injury?
However are we pulling a fast one here?
if we have no first team keeper fit we then qualify for an emergency loan player.
For me get Tom Heaton on the phone asap. I do like BPF a lot but the lad needs some back up from a seasoned pro.

Bielsa wants a small squad so he has less people to train and convert to his ways but his ways prob demand a big squad.
We are in trouble now. Goalkeepers down and Pontus. Smarten up Bielsa.
And if it’s just a dodgy knee. Play him.
Or put Phillips in goal.

The part which is most worrying. no mention of Dallas or dropping him!

Agree0 Disagree0

22 Nov 2018 14:37:34
How can they drop Dallas in this situation. Agree he is punching above his weight but Is experienced.

Agree1 Disagree0

22 Nov 2018 15:05:48
What's the good of being experienced if you are just not up to it, in that position.

Agree0 Disagree0

22 Nov 2018 15:43:05
He's an experienced turnip!

Can we have a rush keeper. Who ever is nearest go’s in.

Sounds favourite to me Yebo :)

Bit concerned about Saturday. On paper it's a home banker but our defence is a concern. If Pontus plays all well and good but if he doesn't and Phillips slots in I would suggest attack our best defence and play Forshaw. Klich, Harrison, Hern. Clarke. Roofe.
Won't happen but I'd keep them busy defending and take the pressure of makeshift defence.

And our #1 keeper is out! Can’t make this stuff up, really! Huffer or Miazek to step up.

BPF out? With what? Bad back.

I agree Aus. In fact I would play one more striker and Goalie when needed at the back.

Martyn You got guts pal. Respect. However, there's no guarantee a new EFL CEO will be any better. Won't his replacement just be another puppet for the elite? Real problem is the EFL itself hence Radz ambition for a breakaway which I've been calling for for a decade and a half.

22 Nov 2018 14:40:00
Signed.

Hope to see you over in Perth for the game Martyn.
Ur needs will be met👍.

Signed, more in hope than expectation. These guys are so entrenched in their "old boys" club.

Maybe his replacement will have in the back of their mind he can be ousted too george.

Excellent point Martyn! Lacking in Hair and Socks Man is basically either a communist or half way to becoming the new Robin Hood. Takes from the rich, just hasn't got around to giving it to the poor yet.

Signed Martyn! can't stand the guy he needs to go for sure, been lining his pocket for some time is my guess.
