He was number two last season to on loan experienced millwall keeper David Forde so understandable really. Let's hope he's a "keeper" on a 2 year deal.

Any competition is welcome. Just because he was number 2 at Pompey doesn't mean he's not good enough. Always difficult for goalkeepers to break into the team when there is an established number 1 choice.
Wow, this is unprecedented. Five signings before the end of May. MR means business. All permanents deals too.
Saved 3 pens in Checkatrade
Means that I could be in with a shout thenRobins only signs players with Celtic names. Doyle, Kelly, McDonald, McNulty and O'brien.
Who's next?
Lots can be read into this signing.
1) RCC will be the keeper to be given a transfer out the two and Burge is staying
2) has Lee Burge stalled on a deal for too long and in such a crucial position MR has acted and planned ahead deciding for the best.
3) is this also a message to the rest of the out of contract players to say we will not be held to ransom and the deals on the table sign it or I will move on quickly.
No sentiment in building a success side and it's MR that will be judged on results at the end of the day. That's his job, take your time and risk it all.
This is the time to deal, no good in august when 75% or free players have secured deals at other clubs.

Seen him play quite a bit.
Commanding, powerful, tough, leader type with a kick like a mule
Exactly what we need in League 2
So you can't read anything from it then, but ask questions that you already could've?Lots can be read into this signing.

You know he's a keeper right?With a target man to bring it down and link up play hopefully to feed those around him!
Let us pray!

We need a hard man not some fucking fruitcakeAnother Liam who's next Liam Gallagher?
If he's good Oggy will soon coach it out of him don't worryIf he's good it will be an excellent signing by Robins. If he turns out to be crap it will be Oggy's fault.
No but Willie Avit isIs Jock McSporran still playing?
To be honest the difference between now and last season is that we are getting players in for League 2 level who are hopefully capable of winning promotion to League 1I'd imagine so, surely he's in regular conversation with those players and agents to get a feeling as to where there at.
I'll say this tho with no dig towards you by any means as a fan of TM and a man I liked too.
But what a difference between this summer and last, we've made 5 early signings that has brought a massive feel of positivity on here between the fans when we'd had a depressing season.
What impact is this likely to have around the players at Ryton? Surely them players who are staying and under contract next year must feel that same positivity and go away on there break looking forward to a positive preseason and a competitive campaign with the aim of building a winning mentality.
Hope you agree?

TM was trying for players capable of winning promotion to the Championship
As others have posted in other threads the difference in earnings between League 2 and the Championship is ridiculous
Most of us as fans say we want our club to be ambitious but perhaps in retrospect we were unrealistic last year based on the budget TM had at the time
of course there is a huge difference and a welcome one, i would never deny that
but i would also say(and not a dig) that its idiotic to put it down to mowbray vs robins solely and not take into account that sisu have probably changed alot behind the scenes from last summer. they admitted huge flaws. we cant say mowbray caused them. maybe this time sisu are giving the manager funds to get his plan A's? if they wernt maybe we would be stuck on 0 signings and the likes of o'brien would be our first signing of the season for his potential like kwame thomas was.
in truth i think its a mix of both manager and sisu. and hopefully we are on right track now.
