This is him while he was a St. Albans.

 

[John Short]

[Matt H]

Can only see him playing 1 game for them.

From what i have found he mainly played reserves for ipswich

 

Does sound like a really good signing

IF thats the case then we casn't rely on Wiseman alone and should have a look around the Ryman north. Their are some good keepers in that division.

It's a shame we couldn't get McKinney back.

Of wot I saw with Mel at the play off final I think hes a good keeper for your lot especilly them saves he pulled off in the second half thought he played well. If you do look for another keeper then for your lot look at tony tucker of redbridge he is a quality keeper when i see him when coaching at Barking so might be worth a look at

I do feel that we need another keeper, Tony Tucker would be a good acquisition (provided we could afford the wages of course) Have been impressed with him whenever i have seen him play.

YA when I seen Tucker play at Barking I have always said to my other coaches and etc why hasnt he played in the conference he got everything you would want in a keeper height, reflexes and good handling not bad in my view and if we at hx didnt have Brightly i would like tucker at hx but he would be a good replacement should mel not play anymore

[Matt H]

I thought Ricky really come into his own before his injury and car accident last season so I would have him as my number one. Any substitute 'Keeper I would have brought through the ranks under Mel's supervision.

[John Short]

wat wages is he on at redbridge

[JAY]

Not sure but Cant be high can it besides I cant see him turning down ryman prem to stay at redbridge who have lost some good players over the few weeks and will miss out on the play offs I think

[ShedBoy]

It showed during the second half of last season and especially in the Play Off Final ( How did Mel make that double save! ) how important it is to have a decent keeper.

 

Mel is one of the best keepers at our level in my view, problem is can he stay clear of injuries.?

 

If Mel is not going to be our number 1 next season we defo need to recruit a keeper. Would love to see James Russell at the club again, maybe a season long loan?

 

Like top Strickers decent experienced keepers cost money, as we know its important the club work within there budget

[John Short]

but i can see him comin to the ryman prem because if u r a championship footballer its like turning down premier league footy dnt u think

[JAY]

Shorty see it this way your a player at redbridge and then at the end of the season redbridge get a call from canvey that they put in a bid for you and etc would you rather play at a club in ryman north 1 who hardly has no fans or atmosphere or play for a club in ryman prem who not long ago was in the conference who has a good supporters good attendence and has a atmosphere and going to better grounds and better clubs I no which I would choose and surely I think Tucker would choose the same

[John Short]

that is yur view so i cant change that but i said is in my last point that is my view plus i dnt want to get into a big agrument about it

Jesus Christ, reading some of these posts is giving me a headache. It's not that difficult to type properly.

[The Great Eckscape]

[Canvey Fan 1926]

[Golden Boots]

Louis Green from GWR would be good for you guys, he will be ousted this year by Mckinney obviously, it's worth a shot....

[John Short]
