I don't, but numerous sources alluded to the fact that Matija Šarkić was close to coming in but that was then met with radio silence. Unsure what happened with that but given Šarkić's pedigree, coupled with the fact that Wolves wouldn't have sent him on loan to us for him to sit idly on the bench not getting any game time, he'd almost certainly be challenging for the No.1. spot.
The last Sarkic rumour was weeks before Moore signed for us. I don’t think there have been any GK rumblings since Moore signed

Better Days suggested we were looking at another keeper - that was around week following Moore's signing. That may or may not have been Šarkić, we can only speculate.

I wasn't aware of that (I just thought it was telegraph speculation) I retract my previous statement.... Maybe it's a see how they perform in pre season and go from there once the prem loans are available

I'm only speculating here but if I had to guess, Robins' initial plan - probably after missing out on Walton - was to bring in two GK's to challenge for the No.1. spot but other priorities were in need of addressing.

I can imagine despite having a plan in place prior to the transfer window starting, things can change. For instance, due to lack of finances available he may realise that he'll have to consolidate on some positions in order to address others further.

There were times when Dabo clearly wasn’t fit. I think Robins may have even said they played him regardless of this.
Rose I wasn’t so sure about but seeing how he played towards the end of the season I was satisfied that it was his lack of fitness that had hindered him too.
Both showed enough to satisfy me that they could perform at this level.
The injury issue is a gamble I guess, as that is with any player. let’s just hope they stay fit.
I have no doubt Dabo and Rose if fully fit are up to this level. Dabo would be one of our best players for sure.

I’m told Cyan Tyler is a possibility to force himself to the subs. bench I believe his potential is highly thought of, now 20 so could be a big chance for him.

Well... (and I'm not saying this is why, but you asked for possibilities!) he'd sign him if he was cheaper than Marosi, and he'd decided Wilson was first choice.

Robins quite openly spoke at the back end of last season how disappointed he was with both Marosi's & Wilson's ability to deal with crosses & that it was something he would address in the summer.
Moore is a completely different style of goalkeeper to Maroši, the days of our keeper staying rooted to his line are likely changing.

No need for that is there.



I deleted it you fucker 🤣

Still clearly did well in the Championship to earn a loan move to L1 😝

There is also no need for you to constantly slag off a player that you have never seen play (outside of the highly competitive environment of a first pre season friendly against a champions League team of course)

And then many of your reasons you have are proven to be nonsense 🙈

Don't get me wrong if once he has played competitive games for us he ends up being as shit as you seem to think he is then I will join you in the we need a new keeper/what the fuck has robins done camp but right now at this point we just don't know

Tough gig nowadays being a goalie years ago at 20/21 it was expected keepers made serious threats to be challenging for the first team now mid to late twenties and they are an inexperienced rookie. I suppose given Billson & Tyler’s ages they could both do with being loaned out for a season.

Preponderance of evidence.

Played L1 most of his career, didn’t get in ahead of Wilson in the first friendly, looked pretty poor, Sheffield Utd fans say L1 is his level.
You’re so fucking boring about Simon Moore. We get it you hate him and will be salivating at his first fuck up
