I think an injury to McG against Wimbledon would have given our defence a torrid time, defending is one thing but throw in a real rookie of a goalkeeper and things get difficult.
There are some positions in the team that still don’t have really adequate cover but the injury to Bass has highlighted that in a case where McG is injured during a game and Bass is not on the bench we might have a serious issue.
I hope that Bass is on the bench for Hull !
I wouldn't judge Turnbull on how he looked behind a weak defence and a youth team midfield against a team like Peterborough. Judge him on how he does behind the first team defence if and when he gets a chance.
To sign more cover when we've already got 4 keepers and only one injured for a few weeks seems unnecessary. If McGillivray got injured then that would be different.
