Jon McLaughlin Signs

[MCMLXXXI]

 

[NDC bear forever]

Huge meh.

 

[Mathias]

Actually never heard of him

 

[blutos]

Miles Davis must be coming along soon

 

[KGR98]

Suggested it weeks ago delighted with this one

 

[ricksen24]

WTF

 

[SuperGers07]

Decent keeper

Football Insider Getting another one right

 

[cambridgeblue]

A bona fide Scotland international

 

[The Golden God]

Fair enough.

Never heard of him but he's clearly going to be the 2nd choice/back up keeper.

 

[weebudsbud]

Who he?

 

[Doverbeach]

More positive news!!

 

[BroomloanWATP]

Solid choice for a no. 2.

 

[Tong Bear]

Think he will do well as back up.

 

[Bluenose1992]

Knows the league and done well at Hearts a few years ago. Decent addition and will hopefully allow Robby to go out on loan.

Welcome to the club Jon.

 

[El Chico de Natura]

Brought him home.

 

[cambridgeblue]

Who he?

The new Wes Alnwick

 

[Clay Davis]

Was very good at Hearts that season he was there.

He is well thought of by Sunderland fans for his spell there

 

[Onetruesaxon]

Ex hearts ?

 

[jonesy8]

Was at Sunderland for 2 seasons before that he was at Hearts, good goalkeeper.

 

[Jose Calypso]

Fair enough.

Never heard of him but he's clearly going to be the 2nd choice/back up keeper.

Played with Hearts and Sunderland. I think?

 

[Blueranger45]

A bona fide Scotland international

probably won't be now

is that one the press have reported or have we kept it away from them? haven't seen him rumoured as a signing

 

[ICA_86]

Back up for McGregor until next season then?

No complaints from me, but I’m sure he won’t be a sexy enough name for many.

 

[Delboy Trotter]

I’m thinking of the ex Hearts and Kilmarnock keeper

If so, average at best.

 

[MCMLXXXI]

Actually never heard of him

Me too.

We have now.

 

[Rooster]

Pffftt

 

[Sasa-]

Very decent back up goalie

 

[Recoba]

Chill out he is just a backup keeper and a fairly decent one at that.

Used to play for Hearts and Sunderland

 

[Henry Hill]

I had to google him
Any good?

78 appearances for Sunderland in last 2 years

 

[devilman]

We'll have the folks on raging we haven't signed Ter Stegan or some other £40m keeper.

All in all the guy is a decent keeper and is only likely to be a back-up anyway.

 

[ricksen24]

He’s been utterly hopeless since leaving Hearts.

 

[Big Ainsley Harriott]

Good backup keeper.

 

[Lord Summerisle]

Good solid signing.

 

[BlueSevenTwo]

Was there not a thread on here a few weeks back where a poster who watched Sunderland a bit didn‘t rate him?

 

[Pvt. Hudson]

Pardon my ignorance, but I’ve never heard of the guy.

 

[rfc_chris_rfc]

Done well when he was in this league not long ago. Would suggest that we are sticking with McGregor this season as no1.

 

[NDC bear forever]

Huge meh.

Should add he was pretty good at Hearts but to go from talking about Ulreich to this

 

[MCMLXXXI]

Ex hearts ?

Yep.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jon_McLaughlin_(footballer)

 

[sw26]

Out of nowhere.

Good back up keeper imo, thought he was decent when he was at Hearts.

 

[IH8Everyone]

Genuinely didn't have a clue who he was

 

[Delboy Trotter]

Ps - I hope it’s purely for backup to McGregor this season.

Not a chance this guy is good enough to become our no.1 when McGregor retires quite possibly at the end of this coming season

 

[Rio Loyal]

Not exactly overwhelmed with this signing would much rather have had Haldky or someone to push McGregor .

 

[SDF]

That's a very good number 2 keeper right there.

Alexander level of a back up IMO.

 

[Macdonsj]

Was good at Hearts that season he was there.

Don’t think he has done very well at Sunderland though.

has anyone in the last 10 years done well at sunderland tho?

 

[albop]

so we have replaced foderingham with this no mark who 9/10 have never even heard of

 

[DM.]

That's a very good number keeper right there.

Alexander levels of a back up IMO.

It's a downgrade on Wes, let's be honest.

 

[Ulster Loyal]

He’s been utterly hopeless since leaving Hearts.

That's the spirit

 

[Shota]

Pardon my ignorance, but I’ve never heard of the guy.

This.

Hold judgement until I see him.

 

[UnionCruiser72]

Had a good to excellent performance in every game I seen him in against us at Ibrox or Tynecastle.

Stopped hearts from getting a pumping numerous times.

Strange that people can’t remember him.

 

[Forth Bear]

He's a downgrade on Fod.

 

[LiviLoyal]

Hahahaha. Let’s hope this window gets a hell of a lot better.
