    Well at least that’s a keeper signed with experience of the lower leagues albeit on loan.

    Lavercombe can claim lower league experience with Torquay and he is our player.[/quote]

    No he aint – He’s only ever played non-league football. Torquay were already in the conference when Latics signed him & loaned him back

    I’d say the fact that Latics were looking to loan him out last season & he wound up at Rhyl (relegated from the Welsh Prem) probably gives an indication of his current ability level

    Have we not learnt anything!!!

    The only lesson to be learned was not to agree to any loan with an appearance clause in it & they haven’t so yes they have learnt

    If its a loan in general you have an issue with, personally I don’t. As long as this guy has been properly scouted, is rated by the manager & the club approached Brighton then I don;t have an issue.

    Where the loans have failed in recent years is that the club just seems to have chucked out a blanket “Do you have anyone we can have?” & accepted what was offered without properly scouting them or knowing their strangths & weaknesses

    Totally agree and that’s why we should still look to sign a keeper just as back up. Shay Given training at Macc and looking for one more season somewhere. Would do just as cover maybe on a pay as you play deal.

    Thought the same thing when I heard him on talksport this morning.
    He’s gonna have to be realistic with his wage demands though – & not just at Latics
