Thought he would have been signed up by now. He’s a quality keeper

Probably holding out for wages similar to what we were paying.

Didn't he want to move up north because of family issues as well? Perhaps no northern clubs have been in for him

I think we overrated him, his stats were poor, and the fact that he's still without a club says a lot.

Am sure he will get a club. A keeper of certain quality.

Personally, with the mess Huddersfield appear to be in, and as a former player of theirs, it wouldnt surprise me to see him back there

Training with Bournemouth?

Is it a move or just keeping fit waiting for a club?

Obviously hes demanding to much money because he is good shot stopper but maybe his distribution is not as good and putting clubs off? Will say alsop is far better on ball than smithies looks so calm and knows how to pass ball out without booting it upfield...

Too right the goalkeeping department is 100% better, that should reassure the defence when they all get used to playing together :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah:
