    Don’t rate Killip at all. Sincerely hope we’re looking for someone better.

    Pretty sure all parties would have known this was a possibility when agreed.

    I’m not too worried - but yes, would be a knock if he did return.

    I thought he has looked ok in patches, but lacking more often than not. Roberts, however, is consistently good as we all know and I really don't see us going the rest of the season with Killip as first choice.

    On the other hand though we will OBVIOUSLY be splashing the cash in January on recruitment right through the team....won't we??o_O

    Doesn't say that Roberts is going back definitely. There's another two mentioned. Typical journalistic licence

    Given the fact Roberts chose to leave in the Summer rather than stay as third choice and he would have known this scenario so could have stayed there and waited, I’m not convinced he will be the one they bring back.

    Maybe Boro are just trying to panic us into signing him for a fee in January instead of a free in the Summer. Or it could be total tosh as usual

    They can't recall him. Well, if both parties agree he can go back, but they can't recall him against our wishes.

    Maybe there are different rules connected with keepers? I hope not, but it's not beyond the realms.

    Are you sure we've read the rules properly?

    Roberts is the one area that our summer signings had an upgrade in.

    I'd hope we've already broached the subject and chucked a figure at them. We need to be on the front foot wi this one, cos if we leave it till the summer hoping to get him on a free, he'll be off somewhere better, whilst we're wondering whose gonna manage us next year, a la Isgrove.
