slatts is back and cronin is not moening


Recommended Posts

Fleet goalkeeper Lance Cronin is now back in full training following the finger injury that has ruled him out of the start of the new season. Scott Tynan has taken Cronin's place for the opening three games, but the former Palace keeper could soon be back in contention for a starting spot. Another player who has yet to feature this season - Danny Slatter - has also been working hard on the training pitch to regain his fitness and he is not too far away from a squad return.

 

Mark Ricketts is still receiving treatment on his knee after being carried off on the opening day of the season, but he has regained full movement and will be stepping up his rehabilitation later this week.

 

New boy Neil Barrett has had the results of his scan and they have shown some ankle ligament damage. The area is swollen, but is improving each day with treatment by Fleet's medical and fitness staff and Neil has been able to gain good movement of the ankle. His return is likely to be delayed for another six weeks or thereabouts.

I can't separate them to be honest, both are quite similar keepers. I thought Tynan was a little at fault for Salisbury's first goal last Tuesday but apparently had an excellent game at Rushden. Similar to Cronin in that he'll sometimes mess up the basics but pull off the amazing. Toss a coin to separate them!

They are both good keepers and should have no hesitancy in keeping both. We need competiton in all positions. This is a tough league now and to have 2 quality keepers is a must. Mott will get his chance but IMHO he is not ready yet. When I saw him last season against Rushden in the Trophy I thought he looked very lightweight. I know I will get hammered by the " you can't say anything bad about our players" brigade for saying that but we should loan him out to another club so he can cut his teeth with competitive matches.

Especially as we appear to be about to sign another defender according to the Reporter:

LIAM Daish hopes to sign another defender today to alleviate the lack of options he has in an injury-hit Ebbsfleet United rearguard, writes Alex Leach......
