Collins is out worst keeper since Scott Shearer in my opinion.

It's embarrassing that Wilson isn't getting a game after numerous poor performances from Collins

Worst keeper to have played more than a handful of games I have seen in over 50 years of watching City.

I think Collins the last 5 games has sealed his own fate. He just doesn't look like a gk at the moment

Collins is like a wet lettuce. His whole demeanour doesn’t come across as a commanding goalkeeper. He needs to be shipped off.

Even the commentary are saying a new keeper is needed in the summer

Perhaps a big gk clear out is required. I'm certainly fed up with Collins

Really don't think we can afford to sign a new goalkeeper as other areas of the team will be more pressing.
Collins at 27? still young for a goalie. (thought he was 24). Think we will stick for another season.

Yes. ALL our goalies suck and need to be gotten rid of. COH, Kelly, Godden, Allen will leave or be cast off. I'd like to get rid of JDS, Palmer as well.

I would be looking at Aled Williams moving on. He hasn’t developed any decent keepers for us since being here. Whole dept needs a shake up.

If Collins starts as no 1 we won't be challenging for the play offs and gets Robins the sack .

Oggy used to get all sorts of stick on here when the likes of Burge or RCC made a mistake. At what point do you start asking questions of the GK coach? Seems to be the only position where players come in and get worse.

John Ruddy would be a good shot stopper for us

For me neither have the right presence. Wilson is the better of the two for me so I’d keep him and bring someone in.Our defence needs a strong steer behind it.

I'm not sure the keepers get worse when they come here.

As I have said multiple times on here, there really is just a lack of quality keepers around at the moment. Evidenced by the keepers at the top clubs at the moment. David Raya is not a fantastic keeper, neither of Chelsea's keepers are exceptional. Vicario and onana also not great. For the mid and lower league teams they all have bang average keepers.

I don't think any keeper has stood out in the championship this year as being exceptional. It's the reason Robins has never spent any real money on the position because there isn't anybody available for a reasonable price it seems (or at least hasn't been)

We haven’t had a decent goalie since Westwood. This department needs sorting!

If I could get rid of the whole lot of keepers I would if he’s the best imagine how bad the fifth one is.

Collins has gone backwards but Robins should have come out and said he is my number one.

Wilson is probably a lovey bloke .

Neither are commanding and put the ones in front of them under pressure.

I would go for Nicolls at Huddersfield or the guy at Rotherham and offer Wilson or Collins in the deal.

I would also release and sell all 3 but it won’t happen.

It’s to big a job to bring in three I guess but equally getting the number one right is important

Robins has caused this dilemma himself , by bringing in another inexperienced keeper , at this level & showing no respect to Wilson .
Collins has shown his poor qualities, on too many occasions this season , but Wilson ( we know he has a mistake in him ) has been turfed out like a leper

Interesting Rotherham left out Johansson and subbed him on in the 90th minute for a good bye?

I’ve just watched their 2nd goal back and it’s an absolute howler by Collins! He’s once again tried to punch the ball and only succeeded in putting it in his own net, shocking. We need to add a new GK to our summer shopping list.

Wolves got rid of him so clearly he isn’t good enough, not even for us.

Never fully trusts his keepers does he, had quite a few under Robins now.

I thought he had a lower job at wolves so this was a promotion, however good he is they aren’t supplying him the raw materials to work with.

I think it will be difficult getting Collins out. Surely no club in the championship would want him and he isn't likely going to take a pay cut to join a team in L1 or 2.
I think we are stuck with him.
We don't want to have another season with 3 senior keepers so think Wilson would be the one to go.
With regards Alex Williams, I do think he has improved Wilson. He isn't great but has definitely improved a lot.

Just seen the second goal back.
I can't even explain/think what Collins was even trying to do.
Absolutely embarrassing.
I'm lost for words to be honest.
