New Keeper on his way

[Alan Southstand]

From Liam Hoden:

Doncaster Rovers are today set to confirm the signing of a goalkeeper on loan from a Premier League club.

[DonnyBazR0ver]

Could stir up a hornets nest!

[DearneValleyRover]

Can’t be true, we’ve got no money apparently

[mpc123]

Sack the board all they do it take money

[GazLaz]

Can’t be true, we’ve got no money apparently

Free loan.

I suggested the Watford lad on Twitter and the suggestion has gathered a bit of momentum. May not be him but he would be a great signing.

I was being ironic

[DonnyBazR0ver]

If I'm wrong, I could look a bit of a turnip!

[RedRover45]

To be honest, he could pilat us to success

[NickDRFC]

Is someone going to pontus in the right direction?

[bobbymax]

Will it end up being a Dahling of the crowd?

[Al4475]

I would have thought they would have had a serious look at Jamal blackman, I believe he is a free agent

[ravenrover]

But that means he has to sign on and be paid by us. RW is looking for a free loan if possible

Richie said he didn't have £1500 a week to pay a goalkeeper. Blackman probably wants that as a minimum

[Al4475]

Fair enough

[scawsby steve]

Sorry I'm not in the loop on this, lads, but what's the Watford keeper's name?

[jm291]

Has he got lost?

[roversdude]

Need to get over the line

[DearneValleyRover]

Think the ink ran out after the last signing

[Metalmicky]

Need to get over the line

TBH, if the keepers any good, he needs to keep it from going over the line....

[roversdude]

Or if it’s a manure keeper back over the line so that it looks like it never crossed in the first place

[MachoMadness]

Looks like it is Dahlberg, teased on Rovers Twitter now so must be official.

[bobbymax]

I'm guessing someone with his background hasn't come to be back-up to Louis Jones!

[ian1980]

Confirmed on DROS:

[GazLaz]

Watched a bit of him this morning. He can play.

[steve@dcfd]

Pontus Dahlberg Signs on a season long loan. Two goal keepers that can improve each other. Let’s hope the goal keeping coach is good enough to assist in their development.
But good signing it appears like any other we will see when he plays.

[MachoMadness]

I suspect this "back up to Louis" thing is a bit on man management on the part of Wellens. He isn't just declaring Louis isn't good enough as previous managers seemed to. Long term I think he is our keeper. He's shown all the faith in the world with him, and if a Swedish international doesn't push him to improve nothing will.

[jm291]

Happy with that. Let's hope we keep him all season 

[scawsby steve]

Good signing. Now get Harrison signed on non-contract terms, and a couple more loans in next week, and we might have something resembling a decent side to take to Hillsborough.

Im still holding out hope that one of the trialists will also get a contract. Im assuming the GK was always in budget, Harrison a nice bonus. But what was the outcome of yesterdays board meeting, very little has been mentioned. Hopefully we can sign a trialist or two following that.

[DonnyOsmond]

Hoden's hinted towards another player joining before tomorrows game.
