Rumoured to be moving to Burnley in the summer to replace James Trafford who will be moving to Newcastle irrespective of Burnley being promoted back to the Premier league or not

Good move for him, but I'd imagine he'd be signing as a back up, rather than a No 1. If true, we will definitely need to sign a new keeper in the summer.

Fair enough - I get that it's a wind up, but stranger things have happened re: back-up keepers (I didn't believe he'd be going as a Trafford replacement) P.S. How much for the beans, Rob?

Edit: I've just realised the date

If he goes best of luck to him he has had some terrible stick from certain "fans" on here.

Some of it is deserved for the more recent performances, but the stuff about him only keeping clean sheets in the playoff season because he had a good defence in front of him is ridiculously unfair on him. He was a very good keeper that season.

I can confirm there is absolutely no truth in this

It’s obviously Collins and not Wilson

Why the fuck we have Wilson a new contract if he’s still behind Collins is beyond me.
Unless he’s on absolutely peanuts

You need 3 keepers at a club. He’s absolutely fine as the 3rd choice keeper for the money he would be on.

The problem is the 2nd choice keeper. Hopefully he comes in now and shuts people like me up and manages to stop parrying everything straight to the strikers.

He warmed up the other day and then Collins came on in a hurry. Odd. Also a little odd the Bell has been recalled early, when he was due back next week anyway. I've been wondering if Wilson "felt something" in his warm up and if we only have one fit keeper at the club for Saturday. Just a thought!

After the Burnley debacle I would have thought it was Collins, the amount of help he gave them

Someone needs to explain why he’s not been played. Is he injured? Has anybody in the press asked? Surely some transparency needed at this point? It’s basically cost us the season.

Don't know if anyone else feels this way, but the whole thing with Wilson has been so odd this season. From the injury we weren't allowed to know anything about, to the contract extension, to the fact it looked like he was coming on when Dovin got injured, only for it to be Collins instead (That's how it looked on the TV anyway, maybe they were just missing something)

All just seems so weird.

Oggy said on the build to one of the home matches a few weeks ago he wasn’t fully fit. Didn’t say anything further on it
