    Very relieved. It would have been a really bad sign if he'd moved on. Good news.
  • Great news. Hope he gets the chance to start the season as number one

    Very pleased. Loads of back up's out there so no rush for a number 2.

    So do people reckon he'll be the number 1 next season? Hope so.

    He's got to be in contention, clearly people in the know think a lot of him.

    Look, with Waggy and Green both gone we need a new topic to debate again and again so

    Well done, Nick !

    A player who made the most of his loan spell, won over the York fans and was/is a credit to our Club.

    This could be the REAL start of his goalkeeping career.

    Very pleased. He's going to be one helluva keeper. I was never worried about Hamer leaving because Pope is even better. He is a top-class organiser, and has the rare ability to judge a cross very early, looking forward to seeing our new No 1 next season. The only question mark against him is: does he hate Palace or not?

    I'd start him as first choice. He has all of the required attributes.

  • Great news, look forward to watching him next season.
  • Proved himself at York and, although it doesn't mean much, he's always looked very assured warming up before matches at the Valley with Roberts/Hamer/Alnwick/Sullivan. He has to be No.1 now.

    A four year contract is great business sense - if he does well, he will be snapped up this time next year by a Prem club, but not go for nothing like Hamer.

    It feels like there are similarities in his route and that of Hart and Henessey. Just hope people are patient, when he makes the odd inevitable mistake next season.

    He is 22 - we either need to play him or let him go to progress his career. I think the former is the right decision.

    Great news and yet another U24 signed up for the long term. I really hope he is good enough to start the season and has the support of two or three decent centre halves so he can bed in at this level. We are 100% sorted at full back so Morrison, Wood, Gomez and Lennon or does this need topping up?
    Looking forward to our first game already and the fixtures are not even out yet!

    I saw Dillon a couple of times for the Youth team and last season in the U21 game at Palace. I have been very impressed with him . Before saying he can be the number 2 , I would like him to have a loan spell in League One or Two similar to Pope. If you look at Hamer's career at Reading or Button's at Spurs both of them played over 100 league games before joining us but neither played in the league for their parent club only appearing in Cup games. Next season we should try to find Dillon a club to do this in.

    We definitely need an experienced Keeper to help develop / compete with Pope .
