Goalkeeper

Who's number 2 to etheridge these days? I've lost track.

Given we'll lose him for 5 weeks of premiership football it's vital we have a strong second.

Brian Murphy but I reckon Warnock will target a decent GK in the transfer window, I’m sure I heard he was looking at Shrewsbury goalie

Wayne hennessey, been playing a few years now and available on a free transfer

Good call on that and brings him closer to home in north Wales

Not for me. Etheridge deserves a chance after the way he's improved this season and Hennessey is hardly one for the future is he?

Don't be swayed by the fact he's Welsh.

Only going to lose him for 3 weeks during the quietest time of the season but still need a new keeper

Assuming he is going to give Etheridge a chance (which he fully deserves), and assuming he won't want to spend much etc Boaz Myhill would be a good shout IMO.

He's number 2 to Foster at WBA who has said he's staying apparantly and is out of contract at the end of June.

He's got the experience and I can't imagine would be looking at that much in wages.

Can be up-to 5 weeks depending on results.

No chance he would be fine as a reserve but Etheridge is a much better keeper than him

He's crap Fabianski if the Jacks go down, he's kept them in so many games over the last few seasons !!!

Joe Hart is struggling too, he needs to rebuild his career, maybe with a promotion team, I don't like him personally but strikes me as a strong character that Warnock might like, and could improve by instilling some confidence.
