Your Saints #1

Ok this is looking like a hot debate amongst Saints fans so the question is who would you like to see as the starting GK in August assuming that Ramsdale will not be here.

 

If we loan out ramshackle we need to loan in a keeper. Sell Bazunu/terminate contract, mccarthy back up loan no. 1

 

If we sell ramshackle then permanent no 1

 

I've seen suggestions of terminating contracts before. We can't just terminate a player's contract just because we think he's ****.

 

We can but we'd have to pay it up so it's pointless

 

It would also send a negative message out to players thinking of signing for us. Just not a good move to make.

 

No real point in voting until we do or don’t lose Rambo or bring in A N Other.
What if we voted for New Permanent and that turned out to be Joe Lumley on a year’s extension to his currently ending contract.

 

It's a poll about what you want to see happen, anyone can have an opinion about that and with respect it's not very likely that Lumley will be the starting GK

 

I put loan because I’m not sure we can get in a goalkeeper who will suitable for next year if we get promoted again. And am not sure that the deal for such a player would be financially sensible with whatever our budget it

There is also a chance that Ramsdale will be loaned out rather than sold

 

it's either Ramsdale stays or gets sold imo...I can't go through having McCarthy and Bazunu in goal anymore and worrying about any shot on goal will be a goal....Johansson from Stoke cheap and is the same calibre as Ramsdale

 

Pay up and release.

 

I don't understand the negativity around McCarthy he was excellent at the end of our last Championship season.

 

Unlikely to keep hold of Ramsdale, sadly. New manager and coaching team, so new broom to sweep out what is, at best, half baked in the goal.keeping position and get us something new for the future.

 

Yes indeed his his attitude and ability, given the circumstances, saw us over the line. Not him alone but it was a significant contribution.

 

I still think Baz will come good.

 

Errrrr mods? Think Lincoln's account has been hacked

 

He’s really good with the ball at his feet. Clean sheets are overrated.

edit: he just needs a run of 6 games

 

I understand on good authority he's a positive influence in the dressing room.

 

Love it

 

Think there’s potential, and is still very young.

We do have an unhealthy trait at Saints to hate on our keepers in the last 5/10 years. (Minus Ramsdale - but even then, there were grumblings around his kicking ability)
