Joe Lumley 14:56 - Dec 27 with 4219 views | Hastings_Hoops | He has been brilliant the past few games (bar Barnsley, where nobody was brilliant). Don’t think there ever was a problem other than the ‘playing out from the back’ bit. Some stunning saves last night against Reading. Long may it continue. Well done Joe, especially given the bile directed by some ‘supporters’ when he needed support the most. | ![](/images/avatars/25446.gif) | | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Joe Lumley on 19:59 - Dec 29 by Gloucs_R | BFG won everything against their big number 9 Lumley is League 1. Get rid. Cost us so many points this season. He's so sloppy, too relaxed. Good shot stopper but that's the minium you need in this league |
'Get rid' A) As if it's that easy B) We aren't far off a League One side in terms of training facilities, stadium, and attendance so maybe we are at his level rather than the other way round. C) Are we all forgetting that Lumley was perfectly fine last season? Not defending the lad for that today though. Awful. [Post edited 29 Dec 2019 20:06]

A) a loan in Jan would do him good B) we're a mid table championship team. | ![](/images/avatars/1527.gif) |

How do you force a player to go on loan if they don't want to and what do we do if Kelly gets injured or plays like he did in the League Cup? We could buy another keeper I suppose, but that will take weeks and will probably be subject to the January desperation Tax. | ![](/images/avatars/6600.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
Joe Lumley on 20:25 - Dec 29 with 925 views | Benny_the_Ball | Despite my obvious misgivings of Lumley, farming him off on loan in January is a bit OTT. Simply drop Joe to the bench and reinstate Kelly in the team. [Post edited 29 Dec 2019 20:27]

I think Joe would take it. He needs to rebuild imo. Bring back Dieng, then you still have cover. | ![](/images/avatars/1527.gif) |

Kicking him out for a season would smash his confidence further. Working on him is the right thing to do rather than shunting him out of the club. Give Kelly another run while we work on his confidence. What is Steve Black up to nowadays? We'd be mad to bring Dieng into this situation (presuming his loan contact has a recall clause in it anyway). He's doing well by all accounts and is one for next season, like Eze was last year. Long term solutions not quick fixes. Despite what the usual angry faces on LfW say, I think there is a good keeper in there and by the looks of it so does Mark Warburton and the coaches who watch the lad day in and day out. This is a real test for the club and is indicative as to wether we have moved on from trying to sign our way out of our problems. A few years ago we would have signed a expensive and over paid 37 year old Prem reject to solve this puzzle. I don't want to go back there. [Post edited 29 Dec 2019 20:43]

I'm not sure he's good enough to be long term. 5-10 goals have been his fault this season. Had he not have come through the youth team ranks would we be giving him as much leeway as we are offering him now? | ![](/images/avatars/1527.gif) |

Sorry mate I added other stuff after your reply. You are probably right, he gets some special dispensation because he is a Youth product but this is the way we need to be. We need to treat these kids like rare gems because they are. It sends a signal to all the talented 12 years olds whose parents are considering QPR. Otherwise, we look after our own not abandon them.

Lee camp was his age when he played for us. Id much rather have him at that age than Lumley. I'm not emotional, no axe to grind, no calling him out on twitter (pathetic arseholes).... Just don't think he's up to it. | ![](/images/avatars/1527.gif) |

Lee Camp is was and always will be ten thousand times better than Lumley Lumley is worse than rob green and I never thought we would see a worse keeper wearing the jersey again | ![](/images/avatars/8151.gif) |

Clive's match report mentions Smithies warming the bench at Cardiff. I'd have him back here for 6 months in a heartbeat, if he's available and the loan fee & wages fitted our finances. Other than that, completely agree with everything here - Joe's shown that he's a capable keeper, but the mistakes in his game are clearly unacceptable. Take him out of the firing line, try to rebuild his confidence and hopefully train the ridiculous howlers our of his game, and we might end up with a useful keeper, or at the very least a sellable asset. No-one benefitted from us from hanging Matt Ingram out to dry last season and then selling him on the cheap, and we won't here with Joe. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
