If we get an offer for Etheridge he'll want to go, it's a short career and if for instance Liverpool wanted him to warm the bench he'd probably be on a big increase in his current wages. But would he want to sit on the bench? More worrying is the rumour that Villa want him, as they've had loan goalkeepers for the last two seasons, so he'd probably be first choice 'keeper for them and they could pay much more than us. I think he's only got one year left on his contract too. But we should hold out for a big fee.

I think it was said that the Smithies rumour was false, so after paying £3.5m he'd be first choice should Etheridge leave. Although I'd want Etheridge to stay.

Murphy is out of contract but we could keep him as cover and the emergence of Ratcliffe could be good, apparently Andy Dibble rates him highly.
Or maybe David Marshall could come back?
