Acccording to the Sun North End are after Burnleys Tom Heaton in Jan transfer window

Maybe that means Maxwell may be off loaded (esp after his Ipswich card and performance) Rudd played v Forest so I think he will be ok after his Brum howler.. But will Heaton come & is he any better than Rudd

I thought i read somewhere that Leeds wanted to sign him as well.........
 
Thought Villa were keen on Heaton.

Ripley seems more likely.

But yeah, Heaton is a lot better than both our keepers.
 
He is an England international and were it not for his injury would be no 1 at Burnley. Far better than anything we have but can't see it happening

We may have had a slight chance if it was a loan, but it looks like Burnley are looking to sell.

In the Sunday papers that PNE are open to offers for Maxwell and getting Conor Ripley on loan. Do they get their rumours from our forum?

The journalist reporting this on a Sunday, Alan Nixon, was the first to report our interest in Ripley a couple of weeks ago. That’s where the name initially came from, not the forum.
 
Cant see us winning the race for the signature of an England squad keeper. Be it on loan or permanently. I honestly don't feel that this is an area that we should be looking to immediately strengthen. 1. Maxwell 2. Rudd... Both can be error prone (which keepers aren't?) but both ok for the Championship. There are far more pressing areas in our squad that we need to strengthen in January... IF we do so
 
Seemingly like everyone else, I can't see this coming off. Hope it's not just another well known player so we can say 'we tried' when he inevitably goes to Villa or somewhere similar.
