Slocombe isn't a world beater, but he's an average keeper at this level and to be honest that's all we need in the short term. How do you know he's average at Div 1 level when he last played at this level 2 years ago? He's probably not the worse goalie we could sign but he's hardly any exciting signing. How do you know if "he's not the worse goalie we could sign but hardly exciting" if he hasn't played at this level for 2 years?!

Isn't that what I said? Not the worst but not the best, so average at this level. I have no idea if he'll be better or worse than the last time he played L1 but he had a good season with Blackpool and can't be worse than Roos or Puddy.

Without wishing to cast doubt on anything, the phrase "sources close to the club" could very well mean "this Forum".
Just a thought.

Nothing to back this up just a gut feeling but rumour was that QPR were interested in Bodin as part of a deal for Lumley. Maybe DC decided he'd rather keep Bodin & look elsewhere for a keeper. I heard this rumour to but decided it was just that so kept quiet, maybe there was some truth in it
