I take it that you've seen him play a fair bit to have such a comprehensive view of his abilities?Oh ok then, let me clarify. Verrips was/is a very cheap, very low risk punt. As I'm sure you agree, he is nowhere near ready to start for us next August (ie the time that currently we will be without a first choice keeper). He may come good in the future, he may not - hence the low risk punt. I think our recruitment team will be actively searching to sign (presuming we don't re-sign Hendo that is) a keeper ready to play next August.
