Phew, I'm glad you've cleared that up for me.
He is good enough to be our reserve keeper, but players develop better when they actually play. You can't really play as a reserve keeper unless your number 1 is out so when would he play? Brookes gets first team experience and development whilst we have Slocombe and this new player as cover which allows Brookes to purely concentrate on his time playing football.
