    It's says in the article that Darlow could be heading for Middlesbrough!

    Good news. We can have the one who ends up as the number 2 on loan for a year.

    Neither Darlow or Elliott seem to be secured No.1 up in Newcastle

    i.e. the season that Newcastle got relegated, Elliott was getting ahead of Darlow in the Premier League, he then got injured right before Euro 2016 meaning he missed a huge part of the Championship last season which allowed Darlow to step up.

    i.e. Elliot made his return from injury in February yet was stuck on the bench for the last three games

    Heard Thuram is coming in too... So these two will be battling it out to be number 2.

    Sounds promising I'll be greedy and say both would be great if a tad optimistic.

    I see Randolph has ended up in the North East but signed for Middlesbrough for £5m.

    Good luck Darren.

    I wouldn't mind trying to Rob Elliot on a season long loan being that experienced keeper now at 31. Be great for Dillon, Jordan and Ash to learn from.

    He's in with a good chance of being first choice in the premier league . Why would he come back ? Evidently I'd welcome it- great guy

    Oh happy days when we had two goalkeepers

    Remember the days when we had 3? Kiely, Andersen and Mhyre
    Remember the 0-0 up at Liverpool....great performance from Mhyre.

    He's a Premier League goalkeeper. Not going to happen.

    Really interesting stat. Randolph had 5 seasons when he was first choice at Motherwell and Birmingham, whereas Elliot has never really been first choice since he left us

    Indeed, it's a pattern with our former keepers. Elliot, Hamer, Pope all left to be 2nd/3rd choice keepers elsewhere.

    David Button by contrast has really progressed, by playing regularly for Brentford and now Fulham

    I'd be very surprised if Elliott gets more than a handful of games this season. Although I do agree we have little/no chance of signing him.
