yarddog73 Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 11 seasons as a pro, 95 League appearances and 9 clubs suggests he will be our No 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kowenicki Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 good reactions by the look of it.... but he def could have held a few of those I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unsworthlatic Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 To be fair I was underwhelmed when I heard it was Letheren, that said I do believe he will be backup and according to York and Dundee fans he is 'good to have around the place' To be a backup keeper I suppose you don't really have to be good, just competent and that video shows that he is a competent keeper when it comes to shot stopping. That said, I was a keeper myself and you could've put a video together like that for me really which shows 'best bits' so to speak. I won't judge him until I've seen him play but 99% sure Letheren will be a backup keeper to probably a loanee keeper (whoever that may be) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unsworthlatic Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 Just now, astottie said: and as York have now slipped to below national league he was probably not going to be on too much there No completely right. Cheap(ish) backup always handy, like I said I highly doubt he'll be number 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaticsPete Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 Saw him a couple of times for York last season . Played behind a terrible defence and was ok - nothing more than that I'd say. Def looking at him being an experienced back up keeper rather than first choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
palmer1 Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 This season's Kettings but hopefully a better version. No1 still to sign... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youngen Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 The outrage when he is number 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudemedic Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 According to a York supporting mate: Would make a decent sub keeper. Shot stopper and nothing more, but he's a nice bloke with a positive attitude- which is probably ideal personality for a 2nd choice GK I wouldn't be surprised if our number 1 is a loan signing. Loan GKs are quite easy to come by and can be very good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
