Just read were interested in Kieran Westwood. Good keeper in my opinion

Haven't we got a good keeper already. Do we want to piss him off by telling him how good he is then relegating him to bench warmer. I do like Westwood, have done for years but surely we should be looking more for a good backup to BPF.

It's a long season for a young player leodis. And imagine what he would learn from a quality keeper and there's always a chance for a coaching role

Should've signed him ten years ago. Was always a very good keeper.

A good keeper who if I remember correctly was in goal for Carlisle in the Play Off games.

I have been told now by 2 different sources granted one a real chancer, though the other has usually been pretty accurate re LUFC but not sure how he finds out, that apparently we are considering Slaven Bilic to replace Heck at the end of the season, anyone else heard this or is it a wind up

Wind up

Proper wind up! We won't be changing manager. Tho I've been very wrong before!

MacBurnie of Swansea reportedly on his way to Leeds in the summer. scored 8 times in 13 matches since Swansea loaned him out to Barnsley. It was Hecky that was instrumental in his signing on loan for Barnsley before he came to ER and one of the reasons for their upturn in form.

Well Alf i think the benchmark is is he better than what we have and its a resounding yes. And hopefully he does not pick up an injury before we sign him and spend half the season out. Also be good if we play him as a striker.

Think he would be a great signing.

Shows Heckaday isn't going anywhere then. 😢

From what I've seen of him on the telly, I reckon he'll be a good addition.

Barnsley have four more games so plenty of time for him to pick up the obligatory, injury. Unless we give a brown paper bag under the table and tell Swansea to wrap in cotton wool.

Be ironic if we get beat by Barnsley and then Hecky gets the sack! I wanted him to do well but don't think we have improved since TC sacked, if anything gone backwards. Not all his fault as suspensions and injuries not helped. I just feel we need a change in manager to attract better types of players and to convince the decent players at club to stay as moving in right direction.

That also down to rads to state he going to invest and make a push for prem and not just a 5 year plan. As said before don't think it will take huge influx of players, if we keep saiz, Pablo, Pontus, vieira and Forshaw. With young ones pushing on ( BPF, Pearce, Rey, O'Connor etc) and recall Coyle, Ideguchi, ? Klich. Then get ailing and Roberts back, may only need 3-4 good buys? Need CB, winger, MF (Vinny type ) and striker.

Shadwell Make that 7 good buys. We require new goalkeeper even if only as number 2. Our current numbers 2 and 3 are awful. 2 central defenders to replace Penny and Cooper. Winger like you said. Hardman like you said. 2 strikers because Lassoga is off and Roberts looks like a sicknote. Ekuban and Grot not up to it just yet and nothing will change over 4 months. We need quality in those positions so we will need 20m investment on hand. Don't think Radz has even half of that. Next season will likely prove a carbon copy of this. More mediocrity.

We need a left-back as well, Pearce is looking good but it's a long old season for a kid . a few mistakes and some of our so-called fans will hammer him
