I think Henderson and Randolph both have potential. I could see the latter getting a move soon, he is the number 1 for the number 2 team in the SPL at the minute Wink . I think Westwood is wildly underrated though, definitely a top tier goalkeeper.

The keeper situation is a worry but i personally feel Randolph deserves a start as he's playing regularly and has a good chance of staking a permanent claim.  The rumour in Scotland is he is going to Celtic as Forester is leaving in the summer.  If he can play Champions League football it would be a serious boost to him. 
 
Westwood for me is a great keeper but unfortunately when he was a free he choose Sunderland over Celtic as Lennon wanted him but Sunderland paid bigger wages.  When you look at the seasons Forester has had and exposure as an Irishman it always bugs me that it could have been Westwood.  Lennon tried to sign him when he was in the final year of his contract but Bothroyd wouldn't sell him which is why he took Forester for a 2nd year on loan as he'd hoped Westwood would come for free.  I'd still love to see him at Celtic but Randolph will be a cheaper, safer option and maybe a better keeper seeing as he's played regularly in recent years. 
 
I don't see Elliott or Bunn getting a game as they're essentially back up keepers not fighting for the jersey.  Elliott and randolph were at Charlton together by the way!

As stated Steve Harper is out injured and is 37-38, Elliot is 26.
 
Krul is out injured for next three weeks so Eliott will get a run of games, but as soon as Krul is back he'll prob be back in goal.
 
In terms of transfer he was linked with AC Milan in January, but no bid came in and he even stated himself that he is happy at newcastle but who knows

Elliot  has  played in Europe and in the cups  this  season and  in every  game  he  has  been  solid, his  1st  PL game  was  against  Southampton last  weekend, he did  well, amazing  stop  from Lamberts  free kick,Krul  may  be out   for  up  to  5  weeks  so he will  get plenty of game  time,Harper is  3rd  choice,Pardew has made that  clear,Harper will be on the coaching  staff in the next few  years so Elliot  is the 1st choice  back up  to Krul who  signed a 5  year contract last year so he wont be going anywhere for a while.

I know it's a fan blog, but it seems that most agree that Elliot is the superior keeper in some respects

it doesn't even make sense. Is 'worldy' not supposed to be short for world class  and used by such masters of the language as Paul Merson? How is that relevant to a move to Newcastle?

The grammar and spelling from that blog is shocking, not surprising a Mag wrote it though Wink

On a serious note, i very much hope we look at Elliot mainly because we are a small nation who should take any EPL option seriously in order to beef up our playing pool. I also hope he concedes bucket loads of goals over the next 5 or so weeks Big smile

Well seeing as he went from Charlton in League 1 on maybe 3 or 4 grand a week to Premier League Newcastle on a 5 year deal probably earning up to 20 grand a week would be a worldy for me.

Because I said "worldy"? Confused

Do you not use any slang or are you the perfect speaker?
