No.2 keeper is always a really difficult position to fill, particularly when you've got a dominant No.1. Nobody wants to sit on the bench and unless there is an injury or serious drop off in form from Brown that is exactly where the new incumbent is going to be.
It was plain that Madison was only signed in order to fill the role because there was no alternative at the time, but what is the alternative now? No keeper worth his salt is going to want to come to spend every game in the dugout. Either Askey has a keeper in mind, or it's about freeing up a wage and bringing a young keeper in on loan and getting the parent club to fork out for the wages?

I think sitting on the bench for prolonged periods comes with the territory of being a Goalkeeper, especially young ones. However, it only takes an injury or suspension and they are straight into the team. As another poster alluded to, I don’t think JA ever had the confidence Maddison could be his future 1 or really push Brown. Hopefully we can find a young keeper who ticks all the boxes and strengthened the squad. 

Looking forward to next week, lads back in training and the kit launch (and maybe a new signing). Getting there...UTV
