Hemming can not be anywhere near.
If we get someone else it won't be before saturday
I’m not against sticking Howlers in goal against Millwall providing someone else is coming in before the window closes.
Under no circumstances should Howlers be the long term solution to the Hemmings gaffe
Why ?
For one (in your opinion) dodgy game v Portsmouth.
He played well against Blackpool keeping a clean sheet, he can't be blamed for the defeat at Wycombe & Nor can he be blamed for an away cup defeat against championship club Plymouth.
You've based your entire hate campaign/argument on 90 minutes at home to Portsmouth & little else.
He’s not a league 1 standard GK. Quite amusing to think that you’d argue otherwise when you were digging someone else out on here earlier accusing them of having an ill formed opinion.

My view isn't based on a 4-0 defeat
V Portsmouth. My accusations normally have some meat on the bone for discussion. Yours was just a rant.

Do you know who else doesn’t think that Howlers is a league 1 GK?

Richie Wellens.
Is he wrong as well on this one?
Show me the Quote where Richie Wellens stated that?

Place your vote, his showing so far has been awful and undoubtedly a relegation threatened team with him in goal
Absolutely . Richie said he has to improve . Send him back to Middleborough and he can improve there .

Now I know you’re on a wind up.
And just to close this loop before the inevitable “see you have no argument” reply:
If Wellens thought Howlers was a league 1 gk we would never have signed Hemmings in the first place.
Now go find another hobby because the row you seem to so desperately want with me really isn’t going to happen.
Wellens Quote.
" I leave the Goalkeeping stuff to Roycie"
I trust Roycie.
I think Roycies Trust has been eroded a little & Howes will start the next couple of games as Hemming isn't even competent for a Sunday League club.

Right…so Simon Royce also agrees with me and doesnt think that Howlers is a league 1 GK.
The absurdity of this argument is quite amusing really. If Howlers was a league 1 standard GK why the hell are we signing loanee kids (two seasons in a row) to play ahead of him?

He obviously can’t actually be as bad as he’s looked so far but he has looked awful. You can’t afford to give teams goals, especially Bolton and Birmingham. The lack of confidence will spread throughout the team. I’d be tempted to give up at this point whilst the window is still open for a few days
Don’t think he actually had a shot to save today and yet we’ve somehow lost 1-2
God knows if he would have saved any decent shots today

I have know idea why we've signed loanees.
Possibly because coaches look down there noses at players who come from non league , when there are keepers kicking about in the championship u23s & reserve sides.
Personally I'd give Sam Howes a crack at it until January.
He'll do far better for us than Hemming will.

The question isn’t “is Howlers a better GK than Hemmings?”
The question is “is either Hemmings or Howlers league 1 quality?”

To which the answer is quite obviously: no
if the club doesn't do anything to correct the keeper problem this week then we'll deserve what we get . Going by the above poll most of us can see there is a problem . Surely the club can as well. We have one week to sort it out before the transfer window closes.

Howes has played a few games at League 1 & hasn't been close to being as bad as Hemming.
If we have to stick with Howes & Hemming, I'm picking Howes.

Well my point is that we shouldn’t be sticking with either. The club should spend the next week sorting the GK issue as a matter of utmost urgency. However, my suspicion is that they will go the cheap route and try Howlers out for a bit despite him quite obviously being nowhere near good enough either.

Cheap option is getting a loan keeper who isn't comfortable here. If we can't send him back we have to go with Howes.
It is possible for both this to be true and for Howlers to also be absolutely nowhere near league 1 level. Hence why I think we absolutely need a new gk asap
We have a game Tuesday & another next Saturday.
Hemming can not be anywhere near.

He can't help himself, notoriety ever since Hoover said it , The Rev has carried it on.
Must be tiny thing syndrome.
Did you seriously just respond to a post claiming I’m childish for calling a naff GK Howlers with “haha you have a small willy”.
Haven’t you been banned from this site like 3 times already Tuffers?
Paul Brigstone is my name,
don't know who tuffers is, but I did read some of his stuff. Thought he was you in disguise to be honest.
Small thing is something me & some of my old regiment friends used to use when someone thought they were clever, but the brains were just the same size as everyone else's.
It's kind of a combat joke. The ones who thought they had the biggest brains were usually the ones in the way of an enemy Bullet.

Taking about shooting people. Pretty nasty stuff. This Tuffers alias is going through the usual pathway quicker than usual.
