Sell green and sign ikeme, would be two good quality keepers battling it out for the number one

Ikeme? Quality? I still have nightmares about the last time he played for us. No thanks.

Ikeme, quality? Far from it.

Debut should be interesting. Replacing a favourite of some at the expense of the favoured option of others.

Reminds me of the start Radek Cerny had when replacing Lee Camp. Poor sod let in an early goal and was roundly booed !!

Welcome Alex, good luck, you're going to need it.

Nice of you to post here Carl

In all honesty ikeme isn't very good but after the performance of the wolves dude last night he will be starting for them Saturday.

The word gets thrown around far too easily.

Now though, Cerny is widely thought of favourably. I certainly look back on his time with us and think, yeah he was a good keeper. Loyal too. Hopefully Smithies proves to be a good keeper. He's done alright for Huddersfield.

Yeh nothing wrong with cerny, just a bit small. Very professional keeper.

Welcome Alex, hope you do well mate.

Welcome Smithers. Green deffo offski. We wouldn't spend 2 million on a back up keeper thats for sure.

I actually think this is going to be a really top signing. Just been flicking through a huddersfield board and they are in general gutted that hes gone but gratefull of the money that the transfer generates. Is at a fantastic age for a keeper and already 250 club appearances under his belt. Welcome alex, best of luck. COYRS

Welcome Smithies..........................

Just noticed he's only 25 too. Young for a keeper with that many championship games under his belt. Could prove to be a good long-term signing for us.

Huddersfield fans aren't happy.

Very good signing . Always rated this lad. He won't let us down. Greeno going now and 50k off the wage bill. Good business.
