    Less than a week away now and no sign yet of a new goalkeeper being brought in, we were linked extensively with Nathan Bishop of Man Utd but that obviously hasn't went through (yet?).

    Who bench warms for Patto this weekend?

    Adam Richardson is injured and not expected back until September.
    Young - if we don't sign Bishop

    Remember young Derek Foster 15 years old starting the 64-65? season when Monty got injured pre-season.
    He did ok so not worried about Young should be be called into action.

    He was a good keeper, good shot stopper, safe hands, blotted his copybook when the club sacked him for selling on his '73 cup final ticket allocation, naughty boy.

    It can all happen very quickly. Think we hav until Friday lunchtime to bring someone in on loan. If it comes to it, and we play a 16yo there then so be it. He looked the business on the US tour

    If it is Young - what an experience for the lad, just being on the bench. Would do him the world of good.

    Same for the striker position. If Hemir goes down injured and is out for a few weeks, who plays?
    In the main, we’ve had a good close season, but due to circumstances (perhaps out of our hands) we seem to me missing some depth in key positions.

    What happened to Forster; he seemed to just disappear off the radar. Or is my memory at fault yet again.
