But looking at the rules the parent club is allowed to recall goalkeepers on a standard loan during the season, with league approval and if you only have one goalkeeper available.
'No one is trying the discredit the lad' Not sure about that based on some of the posts.
'Lost 2 major starters and not yet replaced them' Agree totally but it is a squad game and everyone has a part to play. Tyla's is coming early as the management get the right replacement rather than a replacement.
He's said he's a "great keeper", not plan A but no panic if needed, presumably only for a few games but if he has a few good games then maybe he's worthy of a few more.
In reality despite a few more pages here we don't know any more. Should it backfire by him having bad games, or Bishop turning up elsewhere the management will maybe look to have got it wrong but they know that risk and seem comfortable with it.
Not sure I would agree that Wycombe Wanderers reaching the play off final in League One of the football league can ever be described as falling "a bit short".
Thanks Chris, I hadn't realised that one month loans no longer exist but I suppose with transfer windows that makes sense. Does look like the window for a temporary loan may have gone now and it is either Tyla or a GK with us until 2023.
For the much heralded plan of gaining promotion to championship, as per the Couhig's and Gareth, then not being promoted is exactly that - falling a little short.
It's to their immense credit that we're even thinking like that as our level of club of course.
But it seems unlikely that we will improve on last year having lost key starters.
Forino can replace Stewart over the short term, but can he start 40 games a season? He hasn't even got a 100% record 1 game in.
At least Tyla Dickinson can boast a clean sheet, which is more than the bedwetters can
We'll have a new keeper by the end of the month, and we'll be challenging for promotion by the end of the season. Everyone calm down and enjoy this magnificent team we are lucky enough to support
It depends I suppose on whether you see that as an ambition or a benchmark against which success or failure should be judged.
For me it is very much the former. As a club GA and his team has achieved us punching well above our weight for a number of seasons. I don't take that for granted and understand it is unlikely to always be like this. Enjoy the good seasons while they last.
Christ Almighty, I had this dream we won convincingly at the weekend and our keeper kept a clean sheet. When I woke up it turns out that was just a freak result against a poor team and in fact if he plays again, despite evil promises to the contrary from people who should know better, we are f**ked and our dreams of promotion as far away as last season's were.
100%, If we'd spent Sunderland money and not gone up then sack everyone (like they did) but it's silly to expect it purely because we strive for it. Perhaps the messaging is confusing for some.
Bit of credit for the job Grimmer and Wheeler on Saturday also wouldn't go a miss tbh when people are considering squad depth. It's not as if we had the best squad in the division either of the times we got promoted recently.
People were definitely straying into the former last week and can assume the same will come at 2pm tomorrow if we aren't being kept in the dark, or presumably about being kept in the dark if we are.
You can know something isn't ideal but understand the reasoning and the gamble being taken.
Ah, I see "bedwetters" has now replaced "snowflakes" as the catch-all term to describe people who have the audacity to care about something that you do not.
No slight on Dickinson, but I reckon I could have kept a clean sheet Vs Burton, they had one shot at him right?
He's looked a good prospect whenever I've seen him, and he wouldn't be at the club if the management didn't think he could play league football in the near future, but he's thoroughly untested at league1 level
Our defence did a great job, and Burton looked dreadful.
It's the one position where you're really on your own though, and can't be eased in. Just glad he came through it, but the normal approach would be playing in the Checkatrade and maybe league cup to get some action.
It's been said many times that in football you have to take your chance when you get it. Tyla Dickinson has now got his chance. It's up to him to make the best of it. Good luck to him.

Quite. That is the one example in 20 years I was meaning.
No one is trying to discredit the lad. It's good he's had a taste of the action and come through it.
But a lot of us recognise that we fell a bit short last year, and have lost 2 major starters, and not replaced them with like for like yet.
That's a lovely supportive post sentiment, it really is.
But just not based on anything we're led to believe - which is that we're trying very hard to bring another keeper in!
Unless you believe that Gareth saying the situation is in hand and there's no panic ,is meaning Tyla is the plan of choice!
@Malone two points

Ok I'll accept that - "most of us" aren't trying to discredit him :)
And of course, any old keeper is no advantage, it has to be a quality one. But usually we get such a key position sorted early.
It's one thing talking about picking up good players late on, but not in goal - that's so important.

And the keeper situation, we've done to death.
I guess short term contracts for out of contract players still a thing if not the most attractive offer
At least Tyla Dickinson can boast a clean sheet, which is more than the bedwetters can

Gasroom life is harsh.
Why no new players??????
We've got a really good team, so I think we're primed for a good season.
It just always re-assures you when you see better players coming in.
Bishop and a fit Mawson would have been an undeniable statement of intent.
However, were 100% with a great start behind us, onto Bolton.

Bedwetters or fans legitimately a bit worried about the goalkeeping situation?
People were definitely straying into the former last week and can assume the same will come at 2pm tomorrow if we aren't being kept in the dark, or presumably about being kept in the dark if we are.

Alfie Mawson
Bedwetters
Why does everything have to be so binary and extremist?
Ah, I see "bedwetters" has now replaced "snowflakes" as the catch-all term to describe people who have the audacity to care about something that you do not.
Grow up
Have you ever read this guy's posts before 🤣.
I don't as a rule, but sometimes people do the quote thing.

Just calm down. We're clearly going to get a new goalkeeper.
Tyla can do the job in the meantime. Might just be crucial in his career development.
How may games do we consider tested at League One level.
If he keeps say three clean sheets or gets a few drubbings until The Goalkeeper arrives and he's back on the bench, does that count as tested?
It's been said many times that in football you have to take your chance when you get it. Tyla Dickinson has now got his chance. It's up to him to make the best of it. Good luck to him.
Well, except he has now played at league 1 level, so not as thoroughly untested as he was before last Saturday.
27 pages of "Nathan Bishop set to sign"!🤦♂️ Yawn!
Yeah, which idiot started this thread?
