    What if one or both of our keepers have expressed a view to leave ?

    If that is so, that’s another piece of pathetic man management. It’s arguable that mcgeady and the keepers are the best players we’ve got

    I have absolutely no problem if we go on a 10 match winning streak ..

    Two strikers and a creative midfielder is what is needed... bringing in a goalkeeper FFS

    This win I suppose gives Parkinson breathing space... but it has to be the start of a run!

    If you read the Echo, Alnwick is just training with us because he knows PP. PP thinks we are already strong at GK and is(rightly) looking to strengthen other areas. 2+2 =5 again

    No I wouldn't, but I don't expect us to be in that position. I suspect we'll be up & down, but that the general trend will be upwards. How far, I wouldn't like to say...

    Easier to say now we've won one :p
    :D

    There's odd occasions where I've just wanted PP gone but more where I've thought just give him a bit time and bring some players in.
    Especially after the talk of unrest amongst players etc.
    I dont think this takeover malarkey has helped matters either.

    I can't see him taking us down, at worst, mid table but i posted on another thread or over the road (dont bother there now) that i was hoping for a playoff spot once we get going and could see us winning it this time under pp.

    Hopefully :emoticon-0148-yes:

    Unless we are ready to sell McLaughlin in January, then have Burge as No.1 and Alnwick as No.2

    Owt’s possible although McL seems to be 1st choice atm. Would be a pity to weaken our GK position when it’s so important- I still haven’t got over being relegated from the Championship thanks largely to our abysmal array of keepers

    Both keepers would be fine as no 1's in my opinion, we are lucky to have them both. Maybe one has expressed a desire to leave, who know's, but the speculation was mischievous, and PP to his credit played it well imo.
