Perhaps he could get a Championship club, but I reckon he'd be on the bench.

Possible as a loan signing but unlikely to happen on a permanent basis.

From Burnley fans forum

All well and good, but if we get promoted we'll need a better goalkeeper than either Muric or Trafford. That's why I hope we sell both and sign a new 'keeper. Also we should get Vigoroux off the payroll.

Hope we do see him again

Would be a little disappointed that in over a year we have not been able to recruit/sign a decent goalkeeper on a two/three year contract.

Don’t get me wrong Bigs is great but it’s only short term and means we have to go searching again.

I would prefer to see Vigs back on a perm. Getting him on loan is just kicking the can down the road on what I am thinking is poor recruitment practises.

The danger with a loan keeper is the recall clause as we found out to our detriment with Eldin

So you'd rather we permanently sign a less able keeper?

Not sure how you got to that conclusion. What I said was I would rather bring in a decent keeper on a perm basis so we can build on that rather than bring in a player who may only at best be here for one season and then we start again.

The club has had over a year to get this sorted and they have nothing as far as I am concerned. Bringing Vigs back for a season having not played a single competitive game seems a little desperate and sentimental. It’s a crucial role and to not have a replacement lined up already worries me more than all the other positions we need filling.

People still banning on about this. It was over 10yrs ago for gods sake !

Ling not signing Eldin on a permanent was typical of how he approaches transfer.

As much as I might not be a fan of Ling can't lay that one at his door, he wasn't here in 2014

We've not done loan keepers since hence you have to go back a while to find the last one after Brynn

Blaming Ling when he wasn't even at the club...we reach new lows.

Think that was a bit earlier when we had a series of loan duffers
