As I said before, according to some fans, we have another Pope session coming on. Remember the things said about him and where he is now after a relatively short time. Please just support Phillips and hope any mistakes are few and get fewer, he needs the fans behind him to gain confidence. Don't forget, we are a League 1 team not Premier.

Especially the sarcastic cheering when he recovers from making a mistake
Marriott off to Derby....does that mean a second bid for Josh is more or less likely?
Need a replacement but also have money to look for bigger/better targets maybe?
Their Chairman said Evans wants a big target man as well as the strikers they have so I can see Peterborough going out and buying two forwards, one potentially being Magennis.

I'm sure all our fans will remain entirely objective and offer words of encouragement such as 'you're f***ing s***' if he makes a mistake.
“We know what we need but we’re not going to rush it because there is no point bringing in anybody that is not going to make us better. Pratley has made us better, Lyle Taylor has made us better, so I think it would be silly for me to bring in people that are not going to improve us. To be fair there ain’t many out there. We’re just trying to hand-pick these ones with the budget we have. We don’t have a massive budget but we’re working at it and hopefully we’ll be bringing in a few more.” https://www.cafc.co.uk/news/view/5b58466a721b6/bowyer-on-transfer-budget-ince-dawkins-ward-and-pratley
Surely Dawkins and Ince would make us better? And possibly Ward would too, given that we have very little defensive cover.
I personally think if we brought those 3 in, got a backup keeper and no one else left, then given the state of limbo we're in and we don't have much of a budget then that would've been a fairly decent transfer window.
Agreed. And would hope to get a couple of decent loans in too. Still not sure about RB cover.

But caretaker manager Bowyer has already said the likes of Lapslie, Taylor Maloney and Albie Morgan are not seasoned enough for League One battle.
“When I believe they are ready then they will play,” he explained. “But I can’t put too many in at the same time.
That is total bullsh*t from Bowyer! A player who was given a debut at 17 by Curbs!! Yes he should know but if Curbs had said the same thing when Bowyer wouldn't have played for Leeds in the champions league! If your good enough your old enough!

That’s his point isn’t it? They aren’t good enough yet. They’re promising but none of them are the next Gomez/Lookman/Shelvey, ready to play regularly as a teenager.
Players like Dijksteel and Aribo are a bit older and ready, so he gives them games.

It's a massive leap to assume any of these kids are going to be as good as Bowyer. Even the likes of Parker and Gomez benefited from being eased in slowly instead of being relied on week in week out.

Why is it? he's not refusing to play them, he's simply saying he'll play them when he thinks they are ready. Let's be honest he sees them every day and if he thought we had the next Parker, Bowyer or Shelvey sitting in the youth team then there's no doubt he'd play them.

~~~~~~~~~~ Rooney was ready at 17, but he was a beast by then. I thought Lapslie looked an exciting prospect, whereas last season he looked a bit lost. But Bowyer will know more than we do if he’s ready for League One, won’t he?

Needs must and all that, but I’d much rather we signed a new no 1 before Sunderland
Give Dillon a chance
If Phillips is going to be number one then Maynard-Brewer isn't ready to be backup yet.
And if we sign a new number 1 then Phillips will have the hump and want to leave.
Phillips isn’t completely unproven and I don’t think people should panic if he starts number 1. But we need another keeper 100%
Need a replacement but also have money to look for bigger/better targets maybe?
Did you know there's another keeper called Dillon ...... Dillon Barnes, plays for Colchester and has been on loan at Welling United?
Phew! It's too hot outside.
We all know how that turned out
