I am unsure why we want to keep goulding
he is obv not up to it

(All this is assuming we get Gleeson)

Im a bit puzzled as to why we really want to keep Goulding so badly

I have been a fan of Goulding and wanted him to get his chance. But from what Iv seen of him hes not shown alot of flair or class that makes him stand out above the rest.

What Im thinking is, why would it be worth keeping him when it is likely we will be keeping Carmont for another year atleast, Gleeson would obviously be the other Centre for 2/3 years. Then you have to think we have Pryce (yet to be confirmed but been highlighted as part of a long term plan), we then also have Ian Thornley who is rated well at the club.

On this basis, we would likely still have Gleeson, Pryce and by that time Thornley available for the 1st team.
Goulding until then wont really get a chance and by that point (if Thornley lives up to expectations) he will still be stuck below the top spot in the pecking order and will be coming up to being 23/24.

I cant help thinking that he is another case like with Briscoe where there are better players at the time and he wants his chance to secure a 1st team place.

I would like to keep him as I still do believe he can do something, but IF (still a big if) we get Gleeson I think that signs the end for Goulding at Wigan.. Sad but I cant see many alternatives myself.

Ahh, so, no Gleeson today then.

Yea, 2.30, press conference @ the JJB.
