Rose and McNally kept loads of clean sheets too. They aren’t good enough either. Or do you think they are? The fact is the goals against column is fine so yes they are When they are bad they are very bad eg Swansea away however the sheer number of clean sheets and games with just 1 goal conceded is very clear Quite happy to sign better players but if we have the same CB's not a big issue Big issue is sticking the ball in the net we have signed a cracking keeper We could sign top drawer Championship defenders Won't make that much difference if we don't add goals No one who has watched us this season can seriously be happy with any of the centre halves we have. They all look awful. 2 centre halves are up there with the biggest priorities.

I think we have to be cautious about expecting too much from our new keeper. The bottom line is that all being well he is ours and won't be recalled and will have a good chance of building an understanding with the back line and produce some of the great saves like he did for Rotherham. Expect the odd mistake, lets let him settle in and hopefully be part of a squad that moves us up the table. Elite players make mistakes never mind championship players they’re human beings when all said and done. Far too much focus on isolated incidents rather than an overview of performances and judgement on technique, ability and physical attributes. Blame culture.

Is he our earliest close season signing ever?
I was thinking that it's weird that he's in his own clothes, but I suppose we don't actually have any club wear for him to put on.

We'll he was part of a defense that kept three clean sheets consecutively the three games of the so that's demonstrably false. Whats the kick you get from abusing stoke players online? Rose and McNally kept loads of clean sheets too. They aren’t good enough either. Or do you think they are? Yes they probably are. With a slight reduction in brain farts they’d be more than adequate. I’m not a massive Rose fan I think we could do with something better alongside Wilmot but I certainly don’t think having them as our CB’s and Hoever at RB would be a barrier to a very strong season. I’d be really worried however if we didn’t add goals to our squad.

He’s bound to be wank. Just about everyone approves of his signing. It’s Sod’s Law.

Had no clue he was only 25. Assumed he’d be pushing 30.
On paper, I don’t think we could’ve made a better signing?

Wilmot was outstanding all season . Epitomised by him throwing himself to block two certain goals against Bristol City . The last of which was in the last five minutes when as we were 4-0 up he could easily have shied away . Iversen applauded him picked him up and slapped him on the back. Of course there are those ( just one ) who is so blind and the ultimate agenda I want an argument driven twit . I shan’t bother to reply

One of the best things Schumacher did to stop the rot was to completely drop the lad for a month or two. And that includes the fact he’d been badly injured all season before that. Bad season and Ben would agree I think.

Bad season and Ben would agree I think. As usual the truth is somewhere in the middle. He had some good games and some rather poor ones. Possibly his worst season at the club so far with some genuine mitigating circumstances. I hope he’ll play more and play better next season. I’m a big Wilmot fan.

Seems like a top bloke. What’s he like on the ground? Better than Iverson?
