    anyone any news on goalkeepers?!?!? starting to get quite worried as Oxley is far too young and inexperienced.

    The only news is that we're signing two and we don't know who they are yet.

    I suspect one will be Guzan.

    I'd rather sign David Seaman.

    Look at it this way though. For a goalkeeper, he's still very young so can only get better. Yes he's made errors but every goalkeeper does. David James built a solid career for himself despite the fact he was hugely dodgy at times. Robert Green is another that springs to mind.

    Mannone had a superb but injury hit time at Hull City last season. Italian clubs interested. Vito one of a few options for Leeds.

    Has Oxley even signed his contract extension yet?

    The story in today's Fail suggests that we're going cold on Guzan.

    I wonder if Fraser Forster on loan is now our main target.

    Maik Taylor would be my first choice followed by Iain Turner.

    I posted this on the other thread, but it was probably more relevant on here. Some of the current free agents:

    Adriano Basso (Wolves)
    Jason Brown (Blackburn) - Hopefully Leeds bound.
    Marcus Hahnemann (Wolves)
    Richard Kingson (Blackpool)
    Joseph Murphy (Scunts)
    Paul Rachubka (Blackpool)
    Jan Sebek (Chelsea) - Bit of a punt this one, he's 20, in the Czech U20's, is 6'5" and has been playing for the Cheslea reserves.
    Maik Taylor (Brum)
    Iain Turner (Everton)
    Matthew Gilks (Blackpool) - Though he has been offered a new deal at Blackpool.

    Sebek has gone back to the Czech Republic. Murphy to Coventry seems like a done deal. Kingson is garbage.

    I'd like Hahnemann, Gilks is a good goalie, Turner is a big lad who should be better than he is but would be a fine back-up. Taylor has been a good goalie too regardless of his age.

    Will have trouble getting any goalkeeper to come here if he's going to be 2nd choice.
    May have been better to have kept Duke and just get a 1st choice keeper.
    Is Oxley ready to cover the 2nd choice position??

    Why don't we try and tempt Van der Sar out of retirement? :D

    I thought Guzan was OK for us and apparently he was popular with the lads and the management team, I'd still like to see Bo back at the club though.

    6 clean sheets in 16 games isnt bad, i agree he had some shaky moments, but remember he came having never played behind the back 4, i think with a pre-season under him and time with NP's back four we'd see a better Guzan, id be happy with him as our goalkeeper, lets face it we aint signing mannone for 2m+ or anybody for a huge fee.

    Gilks would be my first choice but can we tempt him? maybe not, Id much rather prefer a perm signing than a loanee, we need stabilty in this position its vital. Hahnemann woulld be a good signing too. As a last resort id even be okay with us Signing Basso.

    Dorus de vries from Swansea would of been ideal always been a good championship goalie, i wonder if we could of got him as first choice instead of him going to Wolves as back up

    Unless you compare it to Fraser Forster, who managed 24 clean sheets last season.
