I’ve been very impressed with him, against hibs, and other teams, he is aged aged 27 , good on the ground and a great shot stopper.
Hibs could do worse than sign him up for next season

St J will sell if they get a good enough offer given he is only contracted for another season so it's now or never for them if they want to cash in which I suspect they need to.

Mentioned on another thread he had a great game against Newcastle when his previous club Cambridge united knocked them out of the FA cup a couple of seasons ago , was voted their player of the season too i think.

If we do sign another keeper I think one thing Monty will want is a keeper that's comfortable with the ball at his feet .

Was very lucky to get away with the penalty claim.

He's played very well the three times ive watched him. Leads the league in saves (partly because of the lack of protection he's been offered by his teammates i guess) but is 4th in save percentage, still pretty good, surprisingly the guy at Killie leads in that stat, he's moved ahead of Butland in that stat who's been very good of course.

I still think we should at least give Wollacott some proper gametime to see what we've got with him.

Definitely, don't think he'll be short of options though.

Am I right in saying that the Killie goalie is on loan from Bournemouth?

Seems like an easy situation to work to our advantage! :greengrin

Two moves for the price of one.

I have no idea how likely it is, it's probably not on anyone's radar and he must be a fair age now but I see Bart Bialkowski has announced he is leaving Millwall at the end of the season. I'd take him at Hibs in a second.

I've liked him since way back when he was at Southampton in the late 00s. Sure he was Ipswich player of the year about 3 times and the same at Millwall.

He is 36 so don't know if we will be Doing the Bartman.

Just listened to your pod, thanks for the credit:greengrin
i hadnt realised Will Dennis was on loan from Bournemouth would definitely make sense as a cheeky sideways loan move if we like him.

Another 36 year old goalie available at the end of the season is Darren Randolph. Leaving Bournemouth at end of his contract.

Saints keeper should be out first signing of the rebuild. Too obvious for this regime though.

Not sure Hibs are looking at him but I'm sure he will have a number of clubs looking at him.

Marshall arguably had the best save of the game!

Firstly really surprised Jojo hasn't been given the last games to Try and show what he can do so for that reason alone I suspect he will be leaving!! As for GK, I would put my cash on Will Dennis who is at killie from Bournemouth being with us next season. But agree Mitov is a very decent keeper.

The Mitov save on to the bar from the Maolida shot was class and save of the match for me.

What’s the plan for Murray Johnson? He will be 20 in November and has played 9 first team games over 2 loans. Feels like another player who has wasted key years in his development and would probably have been better served somewhere else than Hibs. Even allowing for the fact goalkeepers are slightly different to outfield players, though not sure 19 is too young for a goalkeeper anymore.

He’s in a no man’s land of 3rd choice behind a 2nd choice we also seem to have no intention of ever seeing if he is up to being number 1. While we continue to play a 39 year old keeper in the bottom 6 dead rubbers who is out of contract in the summer and been part of one of the worst defences in the league.

Agree. St Johnstone's striker made it easy for Marshall. He could have easily lifted it slightly and levelled the game.

I’d give Murray Johnston the next 4 games, might be ready

Funny as his earlier career was as an outfield player.😳

Mitov has been impressive and was totally in favour of us going for him until I was reading about the Killie keeper and his Bournemouth connections...

A while back someone who knows their keepers described Murray Johnson to me as the real deal and just streets ahead of everyone he trained with. I don't know if recent developments when he seems to have his loan spell cut short and then seemingly doing absolutely nothing has changed things...

I might be wrong , but I think we were offered a 6 figure sum from him, a few years back.
He was definitely exceptional for his age.
He’s played in a few reserve games I’ve watched, but he’s obviously not eligible for the other games.

Id be careful with Johnson.

Still very young - needs a loan where he plays every week in the championship

Just look at some of the comments made towards Megwa when he was recalled and played, he was excellent whilst on loan too. He still done well in the games for us too but never stopped some.

SIEGRIST been told he can leave Celtic. Was outstanding when at Dundee Utd and would be a cracking signing.

I'm sure a few English prem teams wanted him on trial a few years ago, looked decent in the highlights in the recent game vs Raith.

A position we need to strengthen for sure. Marshall has, on the whole, been respectable but not the standard we thought we were getting, given his age we need a new number 1 for next season.

Mitov seems like a decent option but would like us to go for Will Dennis at Killie. He is out of contract with Bournemouth at the end of the season but surely he would like to keep earning good wages with them and would extend if given a chance. Only 24 years old, so could be one for the future for Bournemouth? In the mean time, a loan to us would be ideal.

Apparently both cheeks are sniffing around him though.

EDIT - just realised he signed an extension with Bournemouth in January! We should deffo be getting him on loan, otherwise what is the point of this link up with BK?
