I saw a mention about Keiran Westwood being released by Wednesday and QPR link.
Wouldn't write that 1 off. Lumley gone, Kelly wants 1st team football (@ Motherwell?) and Warbs wants Walsh to get some experience on loan.
Westwood is 36 and would probably be happy enough keeping the bench warm.
Better option than Dillon Barnes? |
Sounds very feasible. As has been noted elsewhere Dieng will most likely be on international duty for parts of next season so whoever is his number 2 will be more than a bench warmer. Westwood has loads of experience at our level and has always looked decent to me. Although having a keeper with good distribution has been a big part of our play for a while so not sure how Westwood fits with that. |  |

I watched Westwood in the last few games for SWFC, he was complete rubbish and explained why they were at the bottom, he is useless. He cannot play at all with his feet or even kick it up the field to his own players.
Shot stopping he's okay, but that's it really. We should avoid him at all costs. |  |

Looking at Sheff weds retained list, https://www.swfc.co.uk/news/2021/may/owls-confirm-202021-retained-list/ , it's mostly to be steered well clear of - but wouldn't mind Adam Reach.
I know it has gone a bit stale for him at Wednesday, but he's 28, is very experienced at this level and could be useful LWB or as cover for Chair/Willock role. |
Watched SWFC and in particular Reach for the last few games. I had seen him before and was really impressed, but in those games, he looked totally gone. No interest and utterly useless.
So, either he's lost it or had decided they were down and was on the beach. Either way, not a good response. In the past, I would sign at once, but now I feel we have moved on from players like him and he would be expensive.
I say we should avoid this type of player, despite him being so skilled. | |

I can see it. Dickie plays like Bruce did and he could be tempted.
That will be £14.95m please with the usual £5m for addons.
Did someone say Oxford have another up and coming CB?
Moneyball you say? Your not the only ones! | |

Still, very unlikely to feature I'd say. | |

Better response here into the musky old humour basket, that's nice |  | | |

Said on the Lumley thread the other day this is how I'd do it instead of having keepers of the same age competing. |  | | |

I do agree in most respects BUT we have so so many goalies on the books that we could do with streamlining that department!
Only one can ever play which is hopefully going to be Dieng. Kelly will hopefully leave and Walsh(i think) will go on loan hopefully accompanied by all the other youngsters.
I'm not sure if their is an African cup of nations this year though?
Also if i was Barnes i would be hoping to be No2 this year, play in the cups and hope to impress.
Just a few thoughts. | | | |

Yes the ACN starts in January 2022 so we could lose Seny for a month. I don’t think Barnes has been signed to be anything other than a third choice so would be surprised if he got any games.
With Walsh out on loan, and Kelly sold we need an experienced keeper who’s happy to spend most of his time on the bench but good enough to fill in for a period of games - Lonergan would make sense there. |  | | |

Lonegron was a complete a hole when we played Preston up there about 3 4 seasons ago took dogs abuse from us during that game and laughed in our faces
Not the right sort for me thanks |  |

Lonergan would be a totally pointless signing. The role of the goalkeeper has changed in the last two seasons and if Lumley struggled to play it out from the back I can't see Lonergan doing any better | | | |
| Summer transfer rumours thread on 23:30 - May 23 with 6641 views | GloryHunter |
I don't know about Lonergan specifically, but I would have thought if you want a back-up goalie for a promotion push season, it's better to have an experienced professional mercenary who understands and accepts the situation, rather than an ambitious youngster who's got the hump about being on the bench every game. Which is why I guess Joe was not the right man for that role. [Post edited 23 May 2021 23:31]

I see Sheffield Wednesday have released Adam Reach after relegation. If Niko really isn't going to make the grade is Reach at 28 an option to cover Wallace at left wingback? |  |

spackman, Brooklyn has already told us how keen he is to be able to get A. Reach over, which in itself is a spackman by me  | | | |

As I said about Westwood, who would be an alternative, an experienced keeper prepared to play second fiddle to Dieng makes a lot of sense.
Lumley has gone already.
Kelly is wanted by Motherwell
Warbs wants Walsh to go out on loan for first team experience
We've just released Dickenson and Brzowski.
That leaves Seny, who could well be away for the African Cup of Nations, Dillon Barnes and ??? |  |

More on the keepers (from WLS)
Dieng to stay. Kelly to go, as he doesnt want to be 2nd choice. But we need a 2nd choice keeper.
Lonergan known to Gavin Ward but they are still deciding whether experience or youth required.
Todd Kane wanted by Charlton, Sunderland and Portsmouth. 13.1 m anybody? [Post edited 26 May 2021 10:02]

The Goalkeeping situation could become even more complicated by Dillon Barnes recent call up with Jamaica
They have friendly matches early next month and the Concacaf Gold Cup competition in July.
Jamaican World Cup Qualifiers start in September and October. | | | |

Shirley that can’t be right as none of the clubs mentioned for Kane are in the Prem?
Can’t believe only Div 1 clubs are interested in him, would have thought a team like Watford or Norwich as a minimum would be in for him! 😜 | | | |
