Well done for taking the post completely out of context for everything that I said 👍

You don't need a top keeper to get promoted.
But it helps surely? And having dodgy keeper(s) has to be worse than having (for example) a dodgy full back. The question is why you appear to think goalkeeper is the least important position on the field.

Depends when you compare to. If you go back to the days when we scraped frees and loans from L1 clubs it’s a fantastic pre season. If you think we’re Man City it’s not. Personally I’m over the moon with where we are now.
Compared to Hull (in terms of preparation) we are miles ahead of them - yes, they will probably throw some cash about as usual, but it'll be scattergun. I thought they would be aa serious rival, but now expect us to definitely finish above them.

Here's a thought... maybe GIMOC is just throwing guesses around and is no more ITK than my cat.

Btw; my cat predicts that Dovin will sign within the next week

It's off.

Sitting 3 seats behind the big man at the Northants v Birmingham vitality blast game. I heard him saying Wilson is impressing in preseason.

Im more surprised at those claiming we don’t need any more strikers.

It's not that we don't need another striker, we do.
We also need another midfielder and a full back/wing back either side.
But if we don't get them we're praying we don't get injuries or suffer fatigue.
If we don't get another keeper, we're praying the opposition dont shoot.

If we use Dasilva at left back we’re praying nobody attacks down his side of the pitch.

I literally said it helps in my post but you decided to clip it...

I didn't say the least important position.

I think we have to accept we have 2 senior left backs and it sounds like neither is going anywhere. Its a position where we have to make the most of what we have.

One person on twitter said he'd been shown around the CBS and loved the stadium and the club .

These people are more ITK than fabrizio Romano it seems , they are his agent

I'd say it's just sad little boys with nothing better to do but the guy you're talking about is 31!
