Best news I've heard all season, just 2 decent centre halves as well required.

I was saying the whole game I'd have Scotty back tomorrow. He's in my top 3 goalkeepers since following the club and I think he was shockingly underrated whilst here before. A brilliant goalkeeper and just what we need to instil some confidence in the defence.

Would be a great move if true. Nothing against Griffiths whatsoever but we need that little bit of experience through the team at this minute in time and SB can give us that.
Russ will go on to be a fine keeper in time I think

His parry back into the path of the onrushing Barthram almost gave us a point! Will we be hearing ironic cheers if he catches one?

Oops. Phone typo. Should have said 'almost'. Thanks for pointing out the error. Now corrected.

If you eat worms for breakfast and have soil on the end of your snout, then I think I know who you are ;)

Which lad from Peterborough Horlick?

So far we have Scott Brown, midfielder from Oldham, defender from Brentford, lad from Bristol City plus Wilson and the player from Guiseley.

Wycombe have resigned Jamal Blackman on loan and SB is set to join another L2 club (us) on loan. With this unlikely to be in time for tomorrow's game then does this mean a first League start for Kitsca tomorrow?

Be a bit strange to field Griffiths with everyone knowing it's his last game

Griffiths will start in my opinion, I doubt we will field Kitscha as he's not as good.

If Kitscha is not capable of playing what is he doing here Robin?

Agree with Robin.
We'd be a bit stupid to have our better goalie on the bench.

Tomorrow's GK selection will be interesting especially after GJs post match interview where he mentioned about telling loans they would be leaving and then needing to select them!

That is unless of course the Brown loan isn't finalised and might not go ahead?

Out of interest why are we loaning Brown rather than just taking over his contract given that he's at Wycombe he surely cannot be on big wages.

It would be fantastic if we could take over his contract. Assuming the loan goes ahead I doubt Wycombe will allow Brown to play against them at Adams Park on April 8th

I would play Kitscha tomorrow I'm sure he is more than capable of filling in for one game and would be a chance to see him in action.

If Scotty is to return, but not in time for Colchester, and it turns out that Russ is to play his final game for us, then I hope all the travelling CTFC Fans continue to show their real class, as they did v Wycombe, and not get on the lads back.

With a bit of luck, we might even win the game too !!

Come On You Robins !!!

Confirmed on the Wycombe site he will be leaving on loan.

Unfortunately this a league game with points at stake so you simply pick your best keeper.

Play RG. No-brainer. We didn't not play Butland because it was his last game, after all.

How do you know Kitscha wouldn't have made a similar mistake? A different mistake? More mistakes? The fact (opinion?) that Griffiths made a mistake does not prove you're correct.

You play your best/most experienced keeper - simple as that. I don't know many people who would suggest Kitscha might fit either of those categories - it would simply be a gamble, a random throw of the dice with no knowledge of the outcome. Bet you voted Leave, too... ;)
