Caldwell also revealed Jason Pearce, who continues to be linked with a move to Charlton, has been ‘doing some work with the fitness coaches’ after suffering a knock, which explains his recent absence.
Only takes an injury at Norwich (or Rudd himself) to put us back into the brown stuff!
An injury at Norwich won't affect us until January
From the CL thread "Loan System Explained" thread:
Clubs will be able to recall a goalkeeper at 24 hours’ notice from a loan at another club if they are unable to field two fit goalkeepers in their 18-man matchday squad.
Rudd is a better keeper than Pope or Henderson almost without a doubt. Never know *if* we go up we might be able to look at a permanent, but I doubt he'd commit to a league 1 team full time.
Goalkeepers don't run around much do they? I reckon they should be swapped with the midfielders in the second half to ensure we keep the energy levels up.

I've been told we are looking at Chris Herd, former villa defender/utility player most recently at Perth Glory, plays for Australia and is a free agent. Never heard of him and the source is not 100% reliable BUT it's a rumour....albeit a pants one!

"Gillespie has been working very hard on his kicking and how he is one of the best keepers with his feet in the lower leagues. He achieved an 81 per cent distribution success rate last season, better even than Jon McLaughlin, who won Leauge One goalkeeper of the year after impressing in Burton Albion’s promotion campaign.
That is why Gillespie is thought to be ready for a step up into the higher divisions, and why Charlton Athletic are considering a £150,000 move for the 24-year-old. He started off at Newcastle United as a boy, he is from Throckley just outside the city, but was released at 16 for not being big enough.
His early years at Carlisle were disrupted by knee injuries, but having overcome those and established himself as a regular he is now one of the more impressive young English goalkeepers in the lower leagues."

How many g/k's do Norwich have?
More than a coincidence, surely?
Crazy money
TV money tricking down and / or clubs in The Championship gambling on promotion.
