    Keeper

    I have seen both Price and O'Donnell play plenty of games now and the latte better than Price but I think he is a poor keeper. Just reacts like Pollitt used to - doesn't command his area ,gets beaten at he near post too often and is super glued to his goal line. Forget RB &CB lets get a decent keeper signed .Or give Bilboe Baggins a go - anybody seen him play?

    Yes and a long one at that - most boring film ever for me - he reminds me of a cross between Liam Gallagher and an Elf !

    And I was going to suggest bringing MP out of retirement but he doesn't meet your standards.

    O'Donnell stepped up towards end of last season and did make a few good saves last night, he just needs to know when to come for the ball.

    We would have lost if Bilboe was in net imo

    Correct - never rated his ability to command his area and at 6'6" he could only jump 5' 10" - he was a good stopper but IMO not as good an all-rounder as Camp ,Clark ,Mountford , Ironside, Morrit, McDonagh ,Mercer or Mimms.

    ... or Martinez...
    so somebody has got to programme the club's Sinclair ZX computer to search under "M" for a good new keeper to sign

    I think we need to sign a good defensive coach

    Defence needs some guidance. We leave opposition strikers with free headers especially. What's point in signing another CB. If Belaid goes still got Do Ball & Wood who can't even get on the bench. Quality league 1 midfielder wanted. Already been mentioned on here. Luke Hyam, rated him when we had him on loan. Keeper if we can get shut of Price get a new no. 1 keeper in.
