FFS. What’s with these injuries? I rate Max a little higher than you do RP but absolutely totally agree we needed to strengthen in that area. We have bought, but not strengthened. SOOO frustrating.
We got Lumley on a free, they knew of O'leary's injury and went for a joke keeper. Utter madness not to spend big on a keeper. SOOO short-sighted.
How many years does it take a normal leadership to realize that they have a major issue with our current #1 goal keeper? Due to the age of a good goalie not being an issue is the reason why there is normally a glut of good keepers up for grabs as clubs tend to go with the younger breed if they have one in stock that can meet the needs. Max's unreliability has long been a concern as his distribution can be very poor and at times quite unbelievable and he does get flustered when we play tip-tap football right in front of him, but another issue for discussion once the season gets under way. It would appear that all in the organization look the other way when it comes to spending good money on a good goalie because we already have it sorted with Max as number one choice by someone who should know better.
It will be interesting to see what this kid can do this season. https://www.bristolpost.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/a-cut-above-what-bristol-10345090
