    Shock horror. Barnsley fans bemused. Some even pouring scorn on those of us that think Walton is the better Goalkeeper. Even having the audacity to even say. Perhaps Collins was their 1st choice.
    I personally think both have to make vast improvements to be considered Championship standard. Scott must be choking on his breakfast if it comes off, given his scathing comments lol.

    Why, they're not doing bad with it at the moment?

    Collins proved he was championship quality last season imo.

    Quite a few of their ex Barnsley contingent came via other clubs. Apart from Moncur, Woodrow and Morris who else have they signed from us?

    Not a surprise that he’ll be leaving. But will we keep Collins in the summer?

    We’ve taken up the option to extend his contract but that means little if someone makes an irresistible offer for him. We would then look somewhat thread bare without Walton

    Sounds a decent lad, wants first team football, not sure if the move gets it for him. Goalkeepers develop later than outfield players, let's see if we regret this five years from now. Btw watched Accrington yesterday, their 21year old keeper looks a prospect.

    I don’t think they signed him from us, but Jordan Clark has turned out to be a bit of a blunder on our part. Very rare occurrence though ;)

    If this goes through, I can only thank Jack for his efforts (especially towards the end of the 2019/20 campaign) and wish him all the best for the rest of his career.

    It's all down to that Pelly bloke, gathering inside information...

    With respect Helen and I respect your opinion. There are too many aspects for me that need to improve the all round game of both goalies to say championship 1st choice quality. When I look back over the last 40+yrs (in the 2nd tier most of that time) they wouldn't fit into my top 10 either of em.
    They will get better, of that I'm sure.

    Yeah, sorry about that, old mate. I better not mention my Terry Curran pillow cases!

    And we thought @Pelly was a good guy, but instead he's secretly scouting against us for his own means.

    I agree with Helen. By the way, which particular attributes are required, in your opinion, to qualify as a goalkeeper of Championship quality, and in what way do these differ from the qualities one ought to be able to expect from a goalkeeper in the Premier League, League One, League Two, National League or local pub league?
