[/quote] He probably already has, after reading his Twitter I'd be very surprised if he didn't.[/quote]
So why not announce it ?? I think his words were "To be honest it's been sorted out some time............"

atkins is number 1 i think but i agree i think lyness should be ahead of atkins atkins proved he isnt good enough for league 2 last season so give lyness a season. or half a season each if it came to it or something.

Always a No.1 keeper should be signing which in this case is Lyness. Crikey - did you go to Ilkeston? Sorry, but Lyness looked very very shaky playing in front of 300 people in a PSF. For one of their goals he literally slapped the ball into his own net. Other than that he was even more glued to his line than Atkins and he also looks worryingly small and unimposing. In the same way people are saying let's not get too worried Ibout pre-season performances, equally let's not kid ourselves that someone absolutely has to be number 1 when all we've seen of him has been pretty duff.

i'm not moanin but for me Lyness has been a bit weak in preseason. and Atkins kept us in a lot of games last year when the D was crumbling in front of him. but we've that problem on.

No, I didn't go Ilkeston but the 2 games I have seen him play (Villa and Gresley) he has been very good. Espically against Villa. He had delfouneso and agbonlahor etc. up against him and he coped well for 35 minutes of the half until we lost a bit of concentration in the 85th minute. Against Gresley, Yes it was a lower league team but he did well when called up on.

I also thought he looked a touch on the small side for a goalie, but according to the albion player profile he's 6'3".
He must have been wearing high heels when they measured him !

6 foot 3?!! That makes him 3 inches taller than me, I'd be astonished if that was right. Found another site that reckons he is just under 6 foot. 6'3" must be a mistake, he looks like a schoolboy to me! I don't rate Atkins terribly highly BUT I'd be much happier with him than Lyness. Don't see Lyness getting a sniff. I am disappointed we haven't managed to get a more experienced 'keeper to be honest.

Atkins is down as 6' 0" , then you see the pair of them stood side by side in the Mail and the Official site and there is no difference in height , unless Atkins is standing on a box .
