What do we think will be our GK solution v Oxford

[Scapegoat]

As the clock ticks - interested in what people think will happen for Saturday.

Other -

 

We request to play spider keepers like when you were a kid.

 

"Only one keeper at a time, but whoever runs into the goal first is the keeper and it changes every attack"

Spider Keeper? 

 

We always refered to that as rush keeper or fly keeper.

 

We will get a season long loan tomorrow who may or may not be with us after the 31st of August.

i was just thinking, is it possible that we turn up on Saturday afternoon and don't  know who it is going to be until they announce the team at 2pm?

[Crusoe]

g)

• We print out every tweet, every Facebook post, every message board post, every blog article, every local news story about Connor Ripley this summer.
• We shred them all into strips, add water and glue, and make a nine-foot tall gold-painted papier mâché colossus to be wheeled into goal on Saturday like a Trojan goalkeeper.
• Score ten as our awestruck opponents prostrate themselves at the mighty feet of papier mâché Connor Ripley.

Playoffs nailed on.

Quite possibly....

[the_mighty_bosh]

Went for "Other".

 

We won't sign a 'keeper.  The 10 outfield players will stand around puzzled, scratching their heads, wondering what's missing from the team as Oxford go and score at will.

100% it won't be a short term loan...

With us, fly keeper was when in 5 a side the keeper could leave the area. Normally you can't leave the area.

Spider was anyone could go in net.

[BP1960]

The way its going we will finish up with 3 keepers.

It will be that letheran fella I reckon on a pay as you play contract until we get a loan sorted with a number 1.

We probably couldn’t get Lonergan as our number one, let alone pay as you play while we wait for somebody else.

[Worcester Owl]

Wasn't Lonergan the guy played by Robert Shaw in The Sting? Paul Newman kept deliberately mis-pronouncing his name. Great film!

[archiecat]

Ripley for me, i may as well be as deluded as everyone else

Because they are not allowed now?

 

I thought emergency keepers were? And not having one surely classes as an emergency!

This Wilson will be a permanent signing I'd say then a loan keeper will follow.

[philliggi]

I'm shez's biggest fan but if we go into the season without a long term keeper he trully intends having here for the season he will have gone down a little bit in my estimation.

Seems Ben Wilson couid be signed permananty with a loanee to follow.

[Kusunga_Is_God]

Wilson to be backup and Sunderland keeper in on loan as number 1

What is Darron Gibson's view on the Sunderland keeper?

[Fruitygoo]

Nash may well be digging his boots out at this rate

[singe]

The Sunderland Polish keeper as I've half a suspicion he's been here all week, if he's not been/not ready Ben Wilson until Sunderland keeper is in and ready.
 

[Scapegoat]

Ben Wilson - 19 first team appearances in 3 seasons is not exactly impressive.

 

Loaned out to lower league clubs has not managed to command 1st choice.

Well that is 17 more football league appearances than 24 year old Ripley had this day last year

So when is the Deadline for any signing to play this Saturday?
