Thought this was dead in the water when Niemi left. Club must rate him highly if he's been pursued for this long. Hopefully he can push Stockdale and in turn he can cut the errors out of his game knowing that if he doesn't perform, there's an international 'keeper there ready to take his spot in...
Probably a recommendation from Antti Niemi considering we were in for him before? Possible theory that Niemi proposed him last summer as a signing to Burke, who opted for Stockdale?
From 2012, (dodgy translation):
Eagle Owl goalkeeper coach Antti Niemi keeps Niki Hill Cast a premium.
Niemi...
Wouldn't be overly surprised if Stockdale wanted out considering the abuse he gets. He hasn't had a great first season and hasn't had a particularly disastrous one either, but the stick he gets on Twitter has been somewhat OTT and he obviously struggles to deal with it.
