He did exactly what we was signed for, provide an extra keeper for training and then coach in the academy 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway despite some thinking it made sense, to me at a time when we had Bentley, O’Leary & Wollacott, it completely blocked the pathway of the latter & was a waste of money. He was effectively deputy goalkeeping coach & 3rd choice keeper at best, pointless. Someone mentioned Lewis Thomas, all I’d say there is our deputy keeper now (Bajic) is far less experienced than Max, who understudied Bentley so although I’m not sure I’d bother, there’s a bit more logic.

Still a lot init. Thomas will be on less than half of that I’d guess. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was never an intention of him ever stepping on a pitch for us he was a training keeper who did some coaching as well, therefore there was no way he could block a pathway for us. Johnson always wanted 4 goalkeepers for every session, this often meant academy keepers being involved however this would often see them miss match days for 18’s/21’s just to be in sessions, which is more pointless hiring a keeper to fill that gap or stop your young keepers getting game time? 26 minutes ago, petehinton said: Still a lot init.

My guess is it won’t be proportionally too different to what the rest of the wage bills were comparatively, it was just a case of where we as a club and football in general was at the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
