    I have just seen that you have signed our old keeper, are you happy with him.
    He is called Lance Cronin.


    Bristol Rovers have signed Gillingham goalkeeper Lance Cronin.

    Cronin joins the Pirates after being allowed to leave the Gills having made just seven appearances in his only season at Priestfield.

    The 25-year-old former Crystal Palace trainee joined the Gills after four years with Ebbsfleet.

    Pirates boss Paul Buckle told the club website: "Technically he's a very good goalkeeper, he's a great addition to the squad."

    I have to worry you but we did not rate him at all, Dropped the ball more than Julian and he made a lot of mistakes, May get better but time will tell.
    Good thing is that he was great at Ebbsfleet in Conference Premier, but not in league 2 last season, he just needs to improve a bit as he did not make that little jump up and he was defiantly the best keeper in Non league 1 season ago when he left ebbsfleet for us so he needs to prove his ability.
    Hope he does well for you,

    He only played 7 times for us I think, he was number 2 to a very poor number 1.
