[Jabbawolf]

Remember him looking fantastic in a 2-2 draw with PNE, IIRC, but that was many moons ago.

 

[Sniffer]

Do I remember him getting beaten by a Karl Henry piledriver from outside the box (or slowish daisy cutter) in Micks second season in charge?

 

[Premier Quality]

Is he supposed to be a backup, competition or replacement for ikeme?

Will be portrayed as competition for Ikeme....in reality he will be back up.

 

[YoungWolf]

Fine as a back up keeper but as DW said rather be looking at someone to take Ikeme's place and be much better. Unrealistic to expect that I guess.

 

[Parkins left foot]

Welcome to him - only seen him play once from memory & wasn't overly impressed, but hopefully will improve on that.

Fulham conceeded the third highest number of goals last year so presume that the defence in front of him was poor - if he gets a chance hopefully we can give him better protection

Uninspiring signing, but probably what we have to get used to for now.

 

[Lycan]

Classic lower end Championship keeper. Good shot stopper who can't control his area and is prone to the odd howler. If Ikeme gets injured/continues his shite form then it'll have to be Batth/Willo in front of him because it'd be chaos with Eel/Hause/Iorfa.

/moxey

Yes.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Whoooppeee.

Every day my decision not to renew feels better.

 

[Jack Regan]

Well Jackett says he'll "complement" Ikeme and Flatt so that suggests bench warmer. Not really a surprise when our goalkeeping coach thought Ikeme had a good end to the season.

 

[FrankMunro-371]

I suppose this signing just confirms that Ikeme will be first choice next season. I hope we have a cup run so Lonergan can get a few games.

 

[North West Wanderer]

He's decent. Happy enough.

 

[Lycan]

Prolific.

 

[Kenny]

I hope we have a cup run .

Your best joke yet...

 

[Hamlet]

We did need another GK but it seems likely we'll stick with Ikeme. Hard to predict Kenny Jackett though, just as long as it isn't as flip-floppish as Ikeme/Martinez was!

 

[Tony Towner]

If the 2014 Ikeme comes back next season and isn't injured it's a reasonable bench warmer signing. If he plays like last season then it's not good enough, but all we were going to get.

 

[slink]

Forgive me if i don't get excited, an average keeper to be backup to another average keeper. I know this is where we are at but surely we should still be looking to improve on Ikeme. There was a point when Martinez signed that Jackett decided we needed an improvement but for some reason doesn't now and that can't be based on last seasons performances.

 

[Kenny]

It's based on money and being a limbo club. The whole philosophy of the club changed the moment Morgan locked his office and went home.

Would taking Martinez on another seasons loan have been more costly?
