And taller
And tallerI’d want to see a proper development option to come in as second choice. Must be a fairly talented youngster who’s not being retained by a Prem club, sort of in the Brandon Mason ilk (albeit, a keeper and not a left-back).
I passed the butter to my missus this evening at the tea table. Will I do?And someone who can pass better
Thing is with that, what's the point in Addai?
Will the 2nd choice play every week in the U23 to develop?
The scouting process behind Sky Blues' latest signingTweets from Donny fans don't make for great reading. Good shot stopper, crap at crosses. Excellent.
That ones taken by our emergency loanee last season.We should come up with a nickname for him. I'm going to call him Stockdale.
I guess he's being given a final chance under the new GK coachThing is with that, what's the point in Addai?

Would us playing at the ricoh have influenced his decision
Posted on the other thread:
Not exactly rave reviews from their fans, but fan opinion on keepers is more likely to be divided as it’s a high profile position. Plus, some players adapt and find form/up their game when they move clubs.
Saying that, I assume he’ll be our second choice keeper. I know MR said he wants two keepers to compete for the starting spot, but I’m hoping the other is the stronger of the two.
Edit: that reads more negativity than I intended. I’m by no means writing him off.
As long as they get paid what they are promised I doubt they are that fussedI’m not sure it’s such a key deciding factor as some seem to think.

They obviously don't think we will.It would if we get voted out next week
Or we replaced O'brien with doncasters first choice. Sure our fans are not aware the season starts in august and we can still sign other playerssounds like we get rid of Burge and basically replace him with Burge
Well that puts him on a hiding to nothing, God help himsounds like we get rid of Burge and basically replace him with Burge

Up to the lad now
I was a bit 'Meh!' about this signing initially but the interview by Andy Turner with Badlan is excellent and the confirmation of a) the work that has gone in to these signings and b) the intention to play proper football again has won me over and I'm excited again! 5 inches taller than Burge too.
I think Robins is looking at things throughout the club to see what can be improvedThere seems to be a vague implication in some of the things that I've read which suggests Robins wanted better as a GK coach, might be completely wrong though

Oggy was fine as a GK coach. But with the emergence of the modern goalkeeper, Oggy's expertise is limited. That's no slight on Oggy, keepers in his generation weren't asked to play from the back, but rather boot it up field. Even if he didn't retire, due to his lack of knowledge in this department I think it was probably best for someone else to be brought in regardless.
Oggy did play for a few years after the backpass rule was introduced, but yeah, I get your point.
I'm more talking about the style of play expertly showcased by the Pickford's and Ederson's of this world. Keepers who are almost used as both an outfield player and a GK. Hence why I stated that Oggy isn't really qualified to teach such a skillset, as really his knowledge is limited in this department due to the style of play that was utilised in the 80s and 90s.

5 inches taller? So he's 6'8''/6'9''!
