We got rid of cammy bell at 29 yr old. bring in a 34 yr old who isn't any better than bell. a lot of people against bell because of his mistake against Motherwell but look the mistakes foderingham has made absolute bomb scare. We have went for cheap option rather than alverado from trabzobspor.

He might not be better than bell we won't know unless he gets a chance however I think the new boy will be on less money and probably willing to sit on a bench before getting a chance bell wasn't willing to be back up.

I'd take Gilks over Bell anyday. Bell has cost us an arm and a leg over the last few years and gave us nothing but howlers in return. Gilks is a solid pro who will happily be understudy. Wes was always going to be number one next season.
I personally think people have been too hard on Wes anyway. He made a few mistakes as all goalies do but he also pulled off some cracking game saving changes, not least in the Old Firm. His distribution was getting better as the year went on and I think buying a new No1 and having to wait for him to get up to speed with playing out from the back every time would have been a mistake. To buy someone n who could do this would have been expensive.
Next year most teams will struggle to leave their half against us anyway with the midfield we have.

Let's just give the guy a chance before saying he's rubbish, he's not even played yet.

Felt sorry for Bell as he made far less mistakes than Foderingham but got slaughtered more. Not sure about Gilks but not keen on Foderingham very average keeper. He is a weak link in team and will be shown up in premiership.
