They obviously think this lad is the right one.Welcome!Get off the lads back, he ant even played for us yet and people are at his throat already, at least let him pull a shirt on So do these!https://youtu.be/eJK-N8joVPkLad cant half save a penno!

His distribution will have been a big thing for Fergie. Marosi's isn't very good.

Seems a good signing to me, got plenty of pedigree and is a big, strong player. Been in the Ireland senior team, kept clean sheets in nearly 50% (7 in 15) of his games for Bury last season in the league above, and could be a good project for Fergie. I expect Fergie/Wilcox went looking for a goalie to fill in until the end of the season and came across Lawlor, who it then transpired was able on a permanent deal so we've taken the opportunity to strengthen our squad which is a good thing and the signing shows ambition and backing from the board.I think having three young keepers is one too many, yes, but it seems clear now that one will leave in the summer. I'd expect it to be Etheridge, maybe Fergie has decided enough is enough with him unless he can impress between now and the summer. Marosi has performed well and has been unlucky to get injured, he showed enough without even getting games to warrant a new deal last summer so surely Fergie likes him enough to keep him around?
I may be wrong but I think marosi extended his deal earlier this season!
Lawlor might be capable of actually commanding his area and leaping up to catch crosses something that Marosi never does.

It was before the season, June last year and it was a 1 year extension until June 2017 or basically the end of this season! I can't help thinking if DF wanted to keep him and had been as impressed by his recent performances as most on here have been he'd of already offered him a new deal by now and most certainly wouldn't of gone and signed Lawlor. That or he doesn't expect Marko to sign another contract with us.
