Looks like the product of some of Willem Dafoe's philandering off the back of that film with Madonna. Nice one, welcome to Oakwell cocker.
Hes from Hartlepool He got relegated from League 2 We all think that hes poo Ben Killip Sorry al get mi coit haha Welcome and good luck Ben
More games played than Isted - but in terms of quality, I’ve seen him once or twice and he’s looked competent from memory - but if we look at it right in the face, he lost his place in February to the lad Hartlepool signed on loan from Leicester in January, Jakub Stolarczyk. The same Jakub Stolarczyk who’d spent the first half of the season on loan at fleetwood town and who didn’t play a minute of league football as he couldn’t get a game over Jay Lynch. So it’s unlikely to be concluded that Killip is going to be a top keeper at this level. I’d be amazed if he’s here as anything other than backup, presumably to Collins. In which case, he’s an experienced head, and will be reliable as backup and excellent on the training field with the younger lads you’d imagine. Good signing in those respects. If Collins did leave though, I sincerely hope we bring someone else in and I suspect we would. Either way I’ll support him any time he pulls on the shirt.
Backup for Collins. Hopefully we will only see him in cup games meaning Collins has played every league with no injury or suspension.
Why did no other league 2 clubs pick him up as a first team regular? Seems a strange signing but at least it's a body in the door
