Neither the two keepers are good enough - I’d get a new number 1 in over the summer and have Moore as backup and then release him once his contract is up.
Why would you have Moore as back-up rather than Wilson?

Edit: assume because he is still under contract. Is Wilson out-of-contract this summer?

Moore as back up? He's done.
If we've got to keep one it would be Wilson surely?
Moore has made major blunders against Sunderland, Millwall, Hull and Wrexham.
We'd be in a play off spot, and possibly still in the cupid it weren't for him.

Yeah but he’s got another season on his contract and I can’t see anyone taking him on. As reserve keeper basically never plays and Moore is apparently a nice guy to have around may as well let Wilson go at the end of his contract and let Moore have a season working with the kids.

I’d keep neither of them, ideally - Moore would be backup because he has a year left on his contract.
I wouldn’t give Wilson a new contract and then have a new keeper, Wilson and Moore - it would be yet more waste of budget.

In that case we need to find a way of punting both.We can't keep Moore, he's become a massive liability unfortunately.
I think he'll be out anyway. I think he's one of the players Robins was referring to with his banging on my door comments.

A League 1 club might take Moore for free and if he’s prepared to drop wages. I would retain one or the other unless we intend to bring in two keepers to fight for a place or promote one from the academy to be an understudy.

I’m still struggling to see how badly he’s declined. Something else has clearly gone on there

Has anybody seen our other two keepers play? Is the gap between Wilson/Moore and them that big?

The fact no matter how desperate things get they're nowehere near the match day squad does not bode well.

Yep that was my thoughts too, especially if Wilson and Moore are both experiencing poor form.
According to the clubs site, Billson is 22 which I appreciate is still relatively young for a keeper but you'd think they would at least be getting occasional bench time

I think he had a pretty bad injury last season on loan at Scunny

We have five pro keepers it’s too many that needs turning into three next year keep the youngest one Bell as third choice and scrap the rest.

It's such a spectacular fall from grace given he was in good form most of last season.

The adage of you don't become a bad player overnight isn't true in Moores case. He has got bad overnight and it's baffling to know why.

It's perfectly normal though.

Just looked at a bunch of championship teams at random and this is how many keepers they have

Blackburn 5
Millwall 6
Swansea 4
Bristol City 6
Birmingham 5

I think he really struggles with the mental side of the game and for a goalkeeper that's usually carnage

A lot of hope in Luke Bell but only 18 perhaps a loan out for rest of the season then come back next season to be a number two to an experienced keeper, Tyler and Billson both in their twenties should have made their mark by now. Wilson & Moore stick with until the summer.

For me we need a good experienced number a younger back up and then Bell if he is decent the current four can clear off.

Don’t get the hate for Wilson - We’ve had better keepers but he has done a solid job for us

Moore has looked like a rabbit in the headlights every time he’s played this season

Personally in the summer I’d keep Wilson as he’s a more than capable back up and he seems to really enjoy it here - in the sense that I think he would be happy to stay and be a number 2, and bring a new number 1 in

Don’t we already have 5 keepers on the books? So you’d be happy with having 6?
