I hope it is an experienced keeper in this league or has dropped down.

Until we have clearance and clarification from the various footballing authorities we have to deal with on some deals, we won’t announce anything. That may well be that most fans won’t know who our new keeper is until 2:45pm tomorrow when our team is first announced, but rest assured for those doubting those working until the 11th hour tonight, that we will get our man.

A bit of background here….
The goalkeeper is a key position for any/every club. For us the keeper is the source of all of our play, and has to be able to play with their feet.
Consequently, we have a target list of keepers we wanted to bring in. Keepers who can play with their feet are in great demand and so can command a big fee. We looked at 3-4 keepers in pre-season but always had a no.1 choice.
At the eleventh hour, thanks to the tireless efforts of our management and football admin team we’ve been able to secure his services. But that requires an additional amount of admin to get him signed. Until we get that confirmation, which we hopefully will get late tonight, we won’t announce anything.

Playing with their feet is surely a bit distracting while a game's going on 😁 But thank you, Stuart - we shall have faith . . .
