I wish him all the best, but how is he better than we have?
He cost us 100k last year and offered less value than Calvin, which takes some doing.
At his best he may or may not have been better than our 2 inexperienced keepers, but who really knows, time will tell.
He didn’t play, but the manager picks the team , and a previous manager gave him the contract. He is not the best, but he certainly isn’t the worst keeper we have had recently. I think his player of the year awards are testament to his performances over the years. If we are now on the lookout for another keeper, I’m assuming if a loanee, he will play. Not sure how that develops our inexperienced keepers. If Jay Lynch proves himself over the next few seasons that will be fantastic, but based on what I’ve seen in games, Lillis was better.

I agree riddler. If we took all circumstances and cost away, I would have him as our no 1, but it’s not that simple.
It’s hardly a secret why Josh was not picked, and tbh (even we won’t argue this) it’s not his fault in any way. He had been a cracking servant to the club, and the club have been to him to be fair.
I wish the guy all the best and have not seen him on Facebook moaning, he must have been near a testimonial!

I have no idea why Lillis was not picked last season. If it's hardly a secret, can you shed some light on this for me please?
Based on what I've seen I prefer Lillis to either of the two keepers we now have, but, like Macro, would rather have Sanchez back on loan.

Whilst we are on about Josh, he made one of the best penalty saves I have ever seen. It was at the end of an EFL Trophy match v Blackburn. Their player did everything right - blasted it into the top corner. Yet Josh got a hand to it and it spun over the bar. It was the fact that Josh had the strength to keep the shot out after diving for it that made it so good in my view.
The worm of time turns not for the cuckoo of circumstance.
I'd be pleasantly surprised. Surely he has to play at a higher level!
I should imagine we'll get another loanee in. Youngster from a top club. Might have to wait until late in the window when they start to become available.

So our young keepers aren’t yet good enough, but our new signing is only 18, and I’m assuming will play.
