    Our number 1 target for permanent goalkeeper in the last window.. But binned us off for Wycombe.. ? Got stuffed 4-0 at home to Charlton yesterday. Now I haven't seen the goals, but according to some on twitter.. it was the worst goalkeeping performance they'd ever seen.

    Looks like we dodged a bullet there.. we're going nowhere with this recruitment team at the helm

    8 clean sheets and and only 10 goals conceded in 15 matches. Any footballer can have a nightmare match. It doesn't make them a bad player.

    Remember what the opinion on here was of Killip. Afore he'd even kicked a ball. Of the 5 goalies this season. Best of the lot. That's only my opinion of course. Others may differ.

    Thought Killip was great, like every keeper has a costly error in them but on the whole a decent keeper and another call the recruitment team got wrong, his data was showing him as 3rd best in the division at the time (January) so for a club big on data I'm not sure if you've the 3rd best keeper at the time why we felt the need to unsettle the back line.

    Two efforts that he could probably have done better with and a freak slip. A bad day at the office. Can happen to any keeper. Certainly doesn't make him a bad goalie.
