    Yep, that's exactly how it works at the Jets.


    Exactly.

    Like all players, he needs to keep improving and play well to get a spot. Having an ordinary 2nd keeper is a terrible thing, puts no pressure on to keep form.
    Having 2 keepers worthy of playing 1st team football is very healthy for the team.

    Also i think Mullen might have something to say about Duncan being the only one "punished"
    Not to mention Hoff/Vujica/Cowburn who won't be playing left back anytime soon either.


    And playing favourite's isn't a new thing. Mullen was terrible at right back but kept getting picked as coaches favourite. Moss is clearly a Merrick favourite.

    I'm still sifting through redtube videos to see who sets a better wall and their respective diving ability.

    Moss is a good addition.

    Duncan and him will provide each other with good competition. Nice to see us sign a genuine no.1 for once. Puts pressure on Duncan, and Duncan's incumbency puts pressure on Moss.

    Ffs some of you people...

    Complain all year that Jones couldn't succeed because he didn't build his own squad, then complain when Merrick brings in one of his own guys

    Who the hell has been 'complaining about our keepers for years'?

    The debate was always about the better of 2 decent keepers.

    Duncan was pretty much blame free on the foz for last year.

    Now we've got 2 decent ones again and the debate is going to be between them.

    I think that was me

    And I ain't complaining about Moss signing except for the fact we use to find ways of putting it past him regardless of how shit we were

    Other than that he ain't bothering me

    I also think it's a very good signing. It increases the overall quality in the squad.

    Great signing.
    We have serious problems if we think Moss is a starting Keeper. He's well known to have extended runs of poor form and I don't see it changing with a move to the Jets.
    I can see this getting ugly if Duncan feels the clubs playing favourites with Moss. Unless Moss is just looking for a holiday - then he's chosen the right club.

    Didn't realise I needed study past armchair opinion from keeping threads/abominations before casting a view on a new signing. Possibly I should have clarified the number of f*cks given first.

    I am sure changing the keeper from the last placed team with the 7th placed team keeper is going to solve all.

    This.....and then some.

    The foz brains trust fapping away at signing a keeper well past his use by.
    He was honking last season and no other club would sign him..........and here come the Jets.

    But keeper was that big pressing issue that needed fixing

    I do have to laugh at the irony of Merrick telling everyone he loves to build teams up from attacking players to defensive ones and then racing out and signing a GK the following week.
