" NEW KEEPER ? "

16th May 2012 Media Wales

REPORTS suggest Cardiff City are interested in signing Peterborough goalkeeper Joe Lewis.


The 24-year-old former England Under-21 international is out of contract at London Road and available on a free transfer.

Lewis, who stands at 6ft 4ins, started his career as a trainee at Norwich and, following loan spells at Stockport and Morecambe, signed for the Posh in January 2008. He has since made almost 200 appearances for Peterborough although last campaign he saw his opportunities limited and he has now been released by boss Darren Ferguson.

Cardiff manager Malky Mackay, who faces competition from Championship rivals Ipswich Town for Lewis, could see the stopper as the perfect replacement for Tom Heaton who failed to agree a new contract and was released this week.

Would be a good back up and cup keeper for us!

Isn't he welsh ?

Thats very unlike media Wales to be 2 days behind every other newspaper in reporting this story

Not Welsh, played a few games for England U21's and has been in the full England squard

Gutted heaton has left,but wouldnt mind Lewis coming in

Didn't he refuse a contract with posh because he said he wanted to play at a higher level?

Posh fans tell me he's shite ...... hence Fergie Jnr releasing him on a free !

Im sure Aston Villa it might of been last season bidded for him, and i remember the chairman on SSN going mad because they offered so little for him. Less than they payed for Lewis, and was expecting atleast a 1mill plus offer.

I think i'd rather him than Parish if you go by stats!

The fact he is being released means nothing, Heaton has been released but still a good keeper.

Geographically....I reckon he'll go to Ipswich.

Do you get paid by Walesonline for all the advertisement you do for them

Not the best but will do as aback up.

Lewis is not all that to be fair.

How about Paddy Kenny? Leaving QPR & is a great keeper for the Championship.

You should go for him before Colin signs him for Dirty Lids.

Heaton wasn't released, he turned down a new contract.

Yes he turned down a new contract and was released as a free transfer....

Lewis has been hopeless every time I've seen him for them - his distribution is much worse than Marshalls and for a big man he doesn't command his penalty box either. Why didn't we just improve Tom Heatons contract? A very poor decision to let him go in my opinion.

I don't think it was a case of improving his contract there was one on the table as far as I know, Heaton wanted first team football which we couldn't offer due to Marshall being number one. My guess is Bristol will be his next stop, closeish to Cardiff, they just released James which I imagine was probably on a decentish wage.

Heston should have been the no. 1 instead of Marshall, but he's gone now anyway. I'm not sure whether Malky will regret the decision to put Marshall before him but I certainly disagreed with it.

Heston is way to blu men tal to be a decent keeper.

Id think hed opt for us hence internationals at the club.
Bring him and use him in pre season!

Let's get him! He'd be a great replacement for Heaton.

I doubt he will regret it, he has seem both all season and which ever one he chose the other would have left.

IMO Marshall is number one but only just.
