With Sarge having left and Platt out for 2 months at least - get well soon by the way and hope op goes ok - where is our goalkeeping cover coming from ?

Wouldn't mind seeing Evo back in the nets. He was benchwarming for Alvechurch yesterday, Sarge has booted him out of the team there!

Can any one person have so much bad luck? Thank goodness all would appear to be OK with Dan's sight.
Best wishes, Dan.

Get well soon Dan.
Not sure what we will do for a keeper now (Watson maybe!). Also will Dan also be unavailable when he has his teeth done?

Reckon Sarge will come back Gemma? You must be 'in the know'

It would be great if he did come back but I suspect that it relies upon building relationships, creating trust.

Firstly John Hill, IMO, made the right call in making Platt no.1. We were fortunate to have two high quality keepers for this level, it was always going to be the case that once one of the two established themselves as no.1, the other would leave.
If I was Matt, I wouldn't come back. I'd rather be somewhere that wants me as no.1 for the long term future, and not just no.1 when someone else is not available. Although it does represent a chance to cement the no.1 for a team at a higher level. But even if Matt comes back, plays brilliantly, will he be dropped for Platt as soon as Platt is fit?
It'll be interesting to see what happens, one way or the other.
