Apparently Alnwick is back at spurs from Norwich. Although reports says he has a hip injured and could be out 6 months.

I dont really see why people seem confused by this signing...... really is beyond me. We have a 1 fit first team keeeper we need back up.... Is it me or is this "simples".

A Walsall supporting friend of mine saw a lot of Walker and reckoned he was the best keeper outside of the top flight over several years. Only his lack of inches stopped him going all the way. Much like Mark Tyler, very underrated at Peterborough and now sadly at Luton.

spoke to my contact about walker the other night. he said everyone was really against it but harry was adamant he was the right choice rather than any of the young GKs that are out on loan. i'm told he pretty much failed his medical but was allowed the contract anyway due to our desperation, and is apparently 'too fat to catch balls from corners.'

sounds promising. although he said he won't play - cudicini is obviously ahead of him and gomes is making a steady recovery.

so he's short, fat, crocked and unil recently was unemployed

Button and Jansson must be feeling good about themselves

They're both out on loan picking up experience instead of sitting on our bench.

Agreed, Button and Jansson should be getting regular game time rather than sitting on our bench waiting for a chance that will never come, since it's unlikely Cudi will get injured and Gomes is coming back soon.

Obviously one of Harry's old mates who has been struggling for cash.

I reckon the same. A couple months with us will probably earn him a decent pay cheque.

I wouldn't write off short, fat, out of condition keepers. I remember a time when a guy from North Wales who fit that description perfectly, and i would reckon not more than 6 foot tall, was arguably the greatest keeper in the world...
