    What about all the howlers Benji had prior to the playoffs? are they forgotten about now?

    What about everyone who was screaming for a new keeper, few good games and its all forgotten about.

    IMO as highlights reels go I don't think its that impressive - some square passes in midfield mostly, and against not great opposition

    He has spent most of his career in Spanish third division. No indication that he has made it anywhere even at pretty poor clubs with support well below our level

    If he impresses in training then great but not sure we should be greedy on this one ;-)

    LS agree with an extent that he is not proven, but then neither were Sturrock, Narey, Holt, Kirkwood et al at any pro league level.

    We have taken chances on proven players and many have let us down. Therefore prepared to give the man the benefit of fair trial. You win some, you lose some!

    I'm guessing we had doubts about his recovery from injury and he's proved he's over it so things have changed. I've always thought Seigrist was a very good keeper, ok he has made the odd mistake, but there isn't a player in our squad that hasn't.

    Because at the time, we needed a fit GK as backup in case Benji got injured. Deniz wasn't fit when we needed him to be.
