New Signing on 16:09 - Jul 4 with 2459 views | Kieran_Knows | Slicker, Walton and Muric is my guess. New number 1. Palmer number 2. Button number 3. |  |

New Signing on 16:09 - Jul 4 with 2454 views | positivity | means slicker can go out on loan, sensible |  |

New Signing on 16:09 - Jul 4 with 2455 views | TresBonne | Assuming Slicker is going out on loan, or Muric/Walton have gone? Can't blame Muric or Walton for leaving in search of 1st team football if they're behind Palmer. Both capable GK's. Wouldn't be surprised if Slicker leaves on loan plus one of the senior lads moves on, otherwise we've done a Chelsea and we have 4 senior GK's + a yoof. |  | |  |

He could go anyway. We already have Palmer/Muric/Walton. |  |

New Signing on 16:12 - Jul 4 with 2303 views | pablo_canooga | Could this be with an eye on David Martin's now vacated role? Keep him around the squad and then transition him into a coaching position next season? EDIT - It more or less says this in the story on the official site - It can also be confirmed that, alongside his playing duties, David will support with the development and mentoring of the Club’s young goalkeepers. He'll only play if things turn ugly in the GK department! [Post edited 4 Jul 16:26]

I was thinking the same - one to transition into the coaching staff imo. |  | |  |
New Signing on 16:16 - Jul 4 with 2161 views | LeightonBuzzardBlue | going to guess this is a back up with an eye to start prep to become assistant goalkeeping coach in the near future? If I remember rightly our assistant GK coach just left recently EDIT: seen this has already been mentioned! [Post edited 4 Jul 16:20]

Will fill a hole for the time being. |  | |  |

New Signing on 16:20 - Jul 4 with 2033 views | Clutch | He's replacing the coach who left more than as a player isn't he? |  | |  |
New Signing on 16:21 - Jul 4 with 2026 views | chenners17 | Phil said on another thread no signings were imminent, he told us porkies!!! 🤣 |  | |  |
New Signing on 16:21 - Jul 4 with 2028 views | baxterbasics | A little underwhelming, but at least we're off the mark! Good luck to him, probably isn't expecting to get much game time. |  |

New Signing on 16:24 - Jul 4 with 1964 views | burnbudgiesburn | I thought we would keep 2 of the experienced keepers and promote a youngster to 3rd choice as to not tie up a squad spot. Strange choice. I mean, this guy more likely than not is never going to make a first team appearance but will take up a place we've used in the past for an age qualified player |  | |  |
New Signing on 16:25 - Jul 4 with 1941 views | RobTheMonk | Seems sensible enough. Won't be playing unless we get some crazy injury issues (in which case we have a very experienced backup). Fills a hole in the goalkeeper coaching team too. Underwhelming but sensible. |  | |  |

Doubt he will expect to start any league games, only played 5 league one games for Reading last season. |  |

Don’t think DM was ever registered to play was he? So like for like replacement and won’t affect the planned ins and outs of the GK department really |  | |  |

Walton deserves a starting spot somewhere and I'm not sure convinced he'll get it here. If Muric is deemed properly part of the group and they decide he isn't an issue in that sense I'd like to see him stay and battle it out with Palmer for the starting spot. He's got the highest ceiling. |  |

I’d expect Button no. 4, unlikely to ever play for us, the Martin role. Palmer Walton Slicker type U21 Button Muric and Slicker loaned out |  |

We need a new number 1, it’s up there alongside a new CM for me. |  |
