I think the GK position next season will be solved by another last minute loan, with Fisher on the bench as back up.

This. Along with 4000’s post. Why buy two strikers for so much money if it was never the intention to play them both, in their normal position at the same time? Why buy so many midfielders when appare

It's more than just being in this "crap division " for me matey. It's the whole mess, the debt, the powerlessness, the alienation from the fans of the what used to be what I felt was my club, the lots

I see it is being reported that Pardew wants Brereton, in Holland, on loan for the remainder of the season.  However it is also being reported that Rovers are not keen due to lack of striking options.

We currently have one of the worst number 2s we’ve had, if Fisher isn’t up to taking Leutwiler’s role on the bench now, when will he? He’s 22 not 18.

I would say Hilton is a better keeper than Fisher is. Fisher was number 2 at MK Dons and Northampton this season where he played no league games at all. Waste of season for him

When the best keeper you are linked with is a Sunderland reject it can only add credence to the theory we aren't allowed to spend money on the defence or keeper.

Fisher isnt ready for being Championship number 2. Simple as. 

Also why would McLaughlin go to Rangers to sit on the bench. Daft move. 

Would you rather have Leutwiler on the bench than Fisher?

Then he should be our number 2. Let the Canadian go.

That wasn't the question.

Ok then, a last minute loan deal for next season's GK with Hilton on the bench.

I think people expecting two Championship standard GK's coming in on permanent contracts are going to be disappointed.

Joe Hart isn't coming here next season. We're signing McLaughlin, it's practically done by a number of accounts.

Which accounts? There may be truth in the rumour that we want him but the manager said last week that he isnt in a position to be offering contracts so its not practically done.

He's not a Sunderland reject though. They want to keep him.

According to the Sunderland forums they left it untill last week to offer a new contract. Many on there believe that this is just so their board can say they tried to keep him. The fans think he is solid enough and wanted him to stay but if fhe club did, surely they would have sorted this out months ago.

Or they are acclimatising to being a League One side and his wage expectations are too high for their current budget, which I saw a report say. The months ago you mentioned have been pandemic months, with lots of clubs trying to figure out their budget. Expect they've just thought sod it, we will offer him what we actually can afford and if it works it works. Especially since we are dallying.

He has been their number one for a long streak of this season now, has started making it into the Scotland side, has been offered a new contract at Sunderland, and the fans want him to stay. I'm not saying he is the answer as I simply don't know enough about his game, but to say he is a Sunderland reject is simply disingenuous.

Was Conor Mahoney a Rovers reject?

No - Mahoney chose to move on.

How about Kevin Darlow as a keeper? He’s a free transfer this summer...

Shit ones. McLaughlin's just signed for Rangers. Crikey.

If we can't even pin down a bang average goalkeeper target what on earth can we do? Worrying. Praying there's something better lined-up but that's probably wishful thinking.
