They do at Ipswich now. | |

This signing another goalkeeper is a bit farcicle on 09:18 - Aug 30 by blueboyd | I think it shows what we have become, whilst signing players is good for the club and was needed due to Cooks hatred of old-ipswich, signing more and more players now is going to leave a bunch of very unhappy players unable to play each week. 3 fully paid first team goalkeepers after one place, it is too Man City for my liking |
Cook wants to get 3 more in by time the window closes - if he does he will have signed more players in one window than Sir Bobby did in 13 years….! I know it is a different game now, but that’s incredible | |

No, I forgot we are now a premier league club able to make such poor decisions by splashing cash all the time. | | | |

This signing another goalkeeper is a bit farcicle on 09:22 - Aug 30 by itfcjoe | He was the best keeper in L2 by far last season, most clean sheets and team of the year despite playing for a not very good team. Won all their player of the year awards - he needs persisting with |
I’d like to see Hladky given a chance behind a stronger spine ie. 2 dominant CBs and an effective defensive midfielder before judging him. That said if Cook was always intending on bringing in 2 keepers this summer and Walton was his target then happy to bring him in and let the best man win the place. I expect Holy to go if that has been the longer term goal. | | | |

Holy is ex-Ipswich so he must be on the way out. | | | |

Yes. He came highly recommended and had an excellent reputation in Scotland and at Salford. He hasn’t started well. He looks low on confidence. Nothing wrong with taking him out of the firing line and developing him behind the scenes. No one is writing him off long term. | |

Not unusual for him though - he did similar with Portsmouth and Wigan. Saying that, the signing of Aluko is sticking out like a sore thumb. | |

You're looking at it from the view point that we're only getting Walton because of Hladkys start to the season. There is the other view point (which is equally plausible and had been reported earlier in summer) that we wanted to bring in 2 new keepers from the start. If a top target suddenly becomes available, who wasn't beforehand, this regime pounces on the opportunity. Already seen rewards for doing that with Edwards. | | | |

This signing another goalkeeper is a bit farcicle on 08:58 - Aug 30 by bobbyramsey | Because some people are looking for any angle to take a shot at Cook. |
Yes, true. I'm happy to take plenty of shots at Cook at present, but what he has screwed up is the defensive side of our team. Bringing in a keeper of Walton's quality is precisely the sort of step required to solve this issue, so personally if Walton comes in, I would give Cook huge credit, and then he must bed in our new defence. Once they're all fit, that is... | | | |

A fair bit of short terms with potentially 5 loans, and two players in on one year deals. | |

The way some fans seem to know the football market continues to astound me as some of the players we’ve signed I’ve known little about, other than when they’ve played against us. I assume the next signings will also be considered as ‘Quality’ right up until they’ve played for us and the about turns occur | | | |

Would you rather he didn't replace some of the 25+ players that he offloaded? | | | |

This signing another goalkeeper is a bit farcicle on 09:40 - Aug 30 with 667 views | HighgateBlue | Yes, "to have to" replace the goalkeeper is absolutely terrible. But that need has already arisen. The question is, should Cook pretend the need doesn't exist, or take corrective action. For me, it's the latter. Cook has screwed up our defence. Now he's putting it right. Credit where credit's due, in my view. | | | |

yeah I forgot we are a big club with unlimited signing tokens, people raved about Cook but where would he be had it not been for gamechanger. They have given him the ability to replace his own signings after a handful of games. | | | |

No shock here is there, a positive move to enhance the team seen as a negative. And 5k on Hladky, lol, give over. | |
