Good post. But would you be confident in Slocombe in goal again for a play off final (or 2 semis) and then facing a penalty shootout?

No Stone can go in goal for the penalty shootouts he won one at Wembley for Port Vale - he is their Archie Mair 😜

We’re never going to sell Macca in Jan, if we don’t go up this season and someone offers a million I guess we probably will take it and Scott will take his place.
I think it’s too harsh to judge Morias yet he’s hardly had a kick really and probably won’t get much of one. It was the same with Mitchell, I thought he had something but never got a run understandably but he’s doing very well at Rochdale.

Thinking about that last minute penalty for Crewe. Would Williams have been allowed to put Stone on? I don't know what the rules are. Not blaming Slocombe for the penalty but the end result couldn't have been any worse.

But what about Slocombe in that first 5 minutes of that final?

I hope one day I witness a Sam Slocombe penalty save, it will be celebrated more than a goal.

I try to forget the first five minutes of the final for the sake of the whole team including everyone ahead of Slocombe.

No.. but we shouldn't be buying a new keeper based on a small chance of being involved in a penalty shoot out. There's bigger priorities than replacing Slocombe.

Stone has been very disappointing, some of the goals conceded have been shocking. As for Morias I really can't see where he fits into the team, a confusing buy.

Oh to have a keeper who can pluck a ball out the air under pressure and can control his area and defence.

We got that part of the recruitment puzzle badly wrong in the summer. We needed an obvious upgrade on Slocombe, but now we have two keepers who don't seem good enough. Bring another onei in, and we'll have to ship one of those two out.

Perhaps we could give Brooks a go? If not now then when?

I'm all for giving Brooks a go ..!!

We'll give him some benzodiazepines if we are lucky enough to get to a final, seems ok in the semi finals just Wembley spooks him
