Bizarre one really. Been a good back up for us over the years but Collins is so much better imo. Not sure why Luton have identified him as a target. Contract is up in summer so will be cheap as a guess but just seems a bit weird. Won't lose any sleep over him going and doesn't really hurt the squad that much.
A bit meh on this one. Would rather lose Walton than Collins. Been here a while and never really ever made the No1 spot his.
Can’t imagine they’re signing him to be number one but it’s a good move for him, gets us a bit of a fee and a wage for someone else too, so not a bad move all round to be honest, if there’s any truth in it.
They let their second choice keeper join Portsmouth on loan, so he’ll replace him. Maybe he’s happy sat on the bench.
He'll be leaving in the summer anyway which probably suites both parties. Good move for him fighting for a place in the league above.
If you look at a outside view there scouting of Barnsley is smart. Players they have signed from us would be double price at most clubs. Just look at Woodrow n Morris. No way a Peterbrough for example let them go that cheap. Its a great way for them to do business really.
Barnsley Lite strike again. He isn't good enough to be our number one, we get a fee to invest somewhere else and he will feel at home there as their entire ground will remind him of our west stand.
Think it’s a good move by us tbh, he’s never going to be number one as long as we have Collins. Moving him on gives the lad under him a chance to step up rather than getting fed up and see what happens then.
Hopefully the inevitable undisclosed fee will be decent and ‘retain future interest’ clause is included. Thank him, wish him well and move on
