Let's hope we spend the money on a decent striker or Midfielder!

It opens the door for Murray to bring in one of his two sightings he wants that he says will take us up a level. Just need Barkhuizen to do the right tink now.

Good to see him get a move and we got a fee.
Think he was treated unfairly as a goalkeeper learning his trade.
The experience he had Infront of him who let people just run past them for 1 2 1 must have stresed him out.

New start and hopefully he will do well.

Interesting to see how Harper applies himself ,maybe Murray can mould him

Totally agree yes made some howlers BUT people forget about how he singlehandedly saved us early on before his concussion!

I totally agree with Pedro's statement about the criticism Stanway received from critics on this blogg and l thoght it was nothing short of disgraceful at times
If you count the saves he made in one game alone it kept the score down to a reasonable level..!
What about the mistakes made by the back four, some of those errors would be laughable even in schoolboy football and yet the back four were selected week after week. It must have been a pleasure to be selected on either wing against Barrow who were slow and often beaten by one ball over the back and had a turning circle bigger than a double decker bus.
Criticise the defence (they were terrible week after week.) but make sure the criticism was spread evenly across the back four and don't just blame the local lad who must now be so grateful he is moving away from the area. Best of luck Wyll, you can now throw away those ear plugs and concentrate on your development.

He had a bad defence in front of him but he made his fair share of mistakes, not great distribution. With decent training and good goalkeepers around him he may develop into a good keeper, but he’s a bit short of that at moment imo.
everyone is entitled to their opinion, deal with it

The only criticisms i had was he never dominated his 6 yard box enough & wasnt vocal enough, good luck to him though
Just my opinion

He dominated it way more than Farman did IMO he was always stuck on his line at corners.

True, but with the car crash of a defence we had last season he needed to dominate that 6 yard more
Just my opinion

I wonder how much we got for him ? I’m presuming no way near the £250k that was being mentioned last season.
