According to the BBC website, Pope has signed on until 2014. This gives us two very promising, assured young goalkeepers for the forseeable future. Expect to see Sullivan go in the summer ?
Doubt he'll step up to being 2nd choice as early as next season. Next step probably is to prove himself at a higher level on loan, like Randolph and Elliot did after loans in non-league.
Watched him at Welling and he is very very slight. He seemed to do the basics of goalkeeping well, however he is going to have to work on his physical stature.
got a few mates who are die hard welling, reckon Pope is the best they have seen down there in years. Looks like a good player for the future without a doubt
It doesn't look like the current U18 keeper is being offered a pro deal, so it would make sense to extend Gough's contract and send him and also Pope out on loan again next season. Both need the experience and they both look like decent prospects.

Was on the OS yesterday
Be interesting to see if Gough is kept on.
you reckon he could be on his way?
