Reckon it’s Collins as Wilson more likely to be happy as a second fiddle… LOGIC.

Collins for me. I'd prefer to keep Wilson.

Wilson had that excellent Season. Collins had a few good games.

I think you would get more for Collins and he is likely to be on higher wages so him. Talent wise Collins will slightly better.

But I wouldn’t care if either went we seem to have a lot of keepers at the moment.

Think the fact that Collins has not featured in last two, whereas Wilson played against Darmstadt, speaks volumes.

Basing this on absolutely nothing I just get the impression Collins would be moody about being second place and could negatively impact squad morale. Wilson will be more positive vibes

Which ever is the highest earner. Don't want to pay handsomely for sitting on a bench

Based on absolutely nothing, but I'm guessing Wilson might be more happy to be a backup keeper rather than Collins and he's probably quite popular in the dressing room.
I still think Collins is the better keeper, but neither should be starting

Collins as likely to get a small fee and probably on higher wages. I do hope one is moved on though as its wasted wages. Can use emergency loan or youngsters for an odd game where disaster has struck.

Collins. His confidence level seemed to be very low at the end of last season. Wilson seems a more positive individual

Collins isn't a happy bunny so move him on.

The thing is, because we signed Collins on such a long contract, if he goes this window, I can only see it being a loan. I can’t see any league 1 club paying 100% wage, and I can’t see him starting in any championship team.
where as Wilson we could a fee (although nominal).

Isn't Collins part of the crew that were upsetting the dressing room mood?

There is very little in difference between either, but I would move Collins on.

Ideally I'd move both on, bring an older keeper in to nurture our new one and the youngsters, hopefully have one of the younger ones ready to step up to first reserve in a season or two.

Collins. He is on a longer contract and his mistakes were far worse and more numerous than Wilson's. Unfortunately I think it's unlikely anyone would take him and I expect we will end up keeping both.

Either/both but contrary to the people that think Collins won't be happy to play second fiddle I think that role would suit him possibly more than Wilson. They both came in as no.2s. I like Wilson but... he's not always that professional and he definitely thought of himself as 1st team keeper when he picked up the golden glove.

Collins is a quiet lad who is technically very good. Throughout his career he seems to find long runs of games a bit much but with Dovin looking the business last night he would likely be looking at the odd appearance now and then. Robins and the coaching staff will have a much clearer view of where they are on this than me but I lean Collins.

Collins is probably the better keeper, but Wilson seems the more settled and has Character. As such I'd keep Wilson

Wasn't Vivash a bit of a father figure for him as well? maybe contributing towards Collins being unhappy and maybe moving on or Vivash being upset we were looking at a new keeper? Pure speculation obviously.

I imagine both will be at the club this season with Wilson being released next summer.

I hate shit like this, no negative, both are under contract til the management team say so. support them.

The shit Collins gets is way over the top. His bad form only really coincided with the whole team dropping off badly. Some real short memories on display today. he was pretty steady for most of the season.

I'm happy we have Dovin as he is widly regarded as bit of an up and coming talent. That said not one of us have watched him play all that much. Im more than happy keeping either or both of Wilson and Collins

You keep the best 2 you can ……

So you're saying we should keep 3 first team goalkeepers, alongside Tyler and Bell giving us 5, when the lowest earner of the main 3 is on 10k a week?

We need to shift 1 of them without question ffs

I reckon Robins will keep them both and put two of them on the bench every game just for the bedwetters benefit

Happy to go with whatever the management chose. Just dont see the need of a thread discussing who is shitter.. especially when they are both clearly adequate Championship Keepers
