  • Cawley on the ball as normal I see

    Known as Colin to his friends
  • Makes you wonder just how bad Henderson's injury is

    He had an operation on his other shoulder (not last season's) and earliest he will be back is September 12th.
    Ill believe that when I see it.

    Heard it was months rather than weeks.

  • i can't believe no-one has mentioned his wife yet!!!

    Dani Lawrence

    You're welcome.
  • Never been impressed with jones when he was at boro or the few games I saw him play for Liverpool, always looked very flappy. Hope he does a job for us ofc if he gets a chance, he must have something about him if Liverpool kept him for this long.

    Shamefully my first thought.

    I'll be amazed if we see Henderson before mid October earliest.

  • October is "a" month.

  • Great signing in my eyes
  • Do we think he'll be in ahead of Pope?

    Well. The suggestion is that in four weeks Jones would be third choice. I don't see it myself.
  • Brad Jones is meant to be this experienced goalie but has played 112 games in 15 years. Only about 25 more than Pope.

    Suggests to me Hendo's injury is worse than initially thought
  • Suggests to me he cannot be relied upon to stay injury free.
  • My feeling is the more good players we sign, the better.
  • Henderson had only made 101 appearances when he came to us, obviously different age to Jones but I really don't think it matters on appearances.
  • ....would you prefer Stuart Taylor

    Genuine thanks Colin, first to report it back on here this time!

    Could be a tasty bit of business, decent back up to Hendo but not sure how he'd compare to Pope.
  • Jones apparently turned down Bristol City earlier in the summer - and was also linked with West Brom and Forest.

    You do wonder where in the order Pope will be when Henderson is back. Guess his performances between now and the international break will determine that.

  • Liverpool fans don't seem to rate him but he is experienced backup and probably won't mind being backup to Pope as much as someone younger might. I don't think it reflects the seriousness of hendersons injury. We needed cover now in case Pope also got an injury. Not a bad move

    Liverpool have slightly higher standards than us tbf.

    Liverpool fans didn't rate Gomez. Brad Jones was always a decent keeper for Boro.

    Hang on... are you kidding me or is your Gomez different to Joe who all Liverpool fans I've seen online appear to be raving about?

    I meant when they first signed him.
  • We give them Gomez and they give us Brad Jones? Guess they aren't happy with us then.

    From what I remember, even Boro fans were shocked he got a better move and Turnbull was always the better prospect for them. Sort of like Elliot and Randolph for us. Suppose he is only short term and hopefully Pope can keep up his start to the season and keep the job ahead of him anyway.
  • Oh so before they had seen him! That makes sense in a weird way, but they've seen Jones play (11 times in 5 years) so think they deserve an opinion.
  • Liverpool fan in the office said he is a bit flappy and bottles going for the ball or commanding his area. Said he will be fine for a back up.
