''The main reason he was brought in was to add some maturity to the GK group''

How do you know that, never heard that idea mentioned before ?
26 year old Sam Howes adding all that maturity and experience. Isn’t it obvious?
So where or who ever said that ? I never heard Ling or RW say that !!
Quote ''The main reason he was brought in was to add some maturity to the GK group''
Also WHAT vast experience of playing in the EFL had Sam Howes got, little to none in actual fact !!
Howes was brought in because he’s clearly very very cheap.

The mature thing is bollocks.

So you are now contradicting your own comment quote you ''26 year old Sam Howes adding all that maturity and experience. Isn’t it obvious ? ''

Yes I agree with what you say above quote ''Howes was brought in because he’s clearly very very cheap''
Obviously very cheap with the hope that with full time professional training that he could improve to become a good number two keeper or more !

So we got there in the end !!

Obviously he's not our highest earner but how do you know how much he's earning ?

He's our player for next year and will most likely be playing the cup games so needs to play to improve. Hopefully a new permanent #1 will come in over summer though.
If we get a senior no 1, he’s no longer required. The main reason he was brought in was to add some maturity to the GK group.
''The main reason he was brought in was to add some maturity to the GK group''

It was mentioned at the time he was signed when people were (understandably) questioning the signing.

It makes sense.

“We didn’t want young goalkeepers across the board. We needed to make sure that we got one who was a little bit more experienced and Sam brings that”

Also said it was Royce’s decision.
