    You worded your post that it was down to O'Donnell though. If he's under contract it'll be down to the club as I can't see many clubs wanting to pay a fee for his services.

    Yeah of course but the point was that that's down to the club and not the player.

    Depends on who he is replaced by. If it’s the kid signed last week, I’ll be worried and in that case, RO’D would definitely be missed

    OD is a poor keeper. he may not be the only problem we have/had but he's definitely one of them.

    Another gem from Park.

    I wonder if he realises Hornby is THIRD choice?

    In fairness, doesn't necessarily mean he's third choice now. Could be good experience for GSK on the bench and Hornby gets much needed game time. It's a short term loan so can get him back if there are any injuries and may get some cash in also

    The way fordy goes on about him he wouldn't have him in the country never mind the team........ I think he has actually pinched a midget off fordy and he's still not got over it...... :unsure:

    Implies maybe no2....

    “At 24 years old, he is at a good age to really progress his career.

    “I was encouraged when he said he would not come in to be a number-two. He is ready to play games.”

    Might end up splitting the GK duties similar to how we did with duke and mcloughlin. Whether thats a good thing or not, im not sure, but if he is of similar ability (cant say ive heard of him personally) im all for a bit of competition.

    Edit: just seen on wiki that he didnt play a league game for port vale last season so im guessing he is a cheap number 2, wonder if GSK isnt progressing as well as expected

    Sh*t pool so far.

    You can tell by offering Anderson and the likes contracts.

    I don't mind this signing though.

    Unless ROD leaves then we can't really sign a out and our number 1. So this new signing should give him competition.

    Even if not number one, if O’Donnell gets that nod, it’s good to have a solid number 2 for a change. Makes a change from sattlemair etc.

    There are plenty of keepers around who are worse than O'Donnell...

    Port Vale finished 20th in League Two last season, if we are signing their backup keeper as our first choice then I'd be seriously worried.

    I bet there isn't many in the football league.
    OD is awful. hopeless. I'm confident this Hornby lad will be better than him.

    Vale seem to have an irreplaceable keeper but their fans say he is a good keeper so a promising signing at a good age
