Ben Amos goes back to Manure

Wondering if giving him the Player of the Month award will be enough to tempt him to come back and work for peanuts in the summer?

Ben Amos has officially completed his loan spell at Bolton Wanderers and has now returned to parent club Manchester United.

The goalkeeper was initially signed on a short-term deal to provide cover for injured pair Adam Bogdan and Andrew Lonergan.

After impressing between the sticks Amos retained his place and saw his loan spell then extended. He also recently claimed the club’s Player of the Month award for March.

During his time at Bolton Amos made a total of nine first team appearances.

Everyone at Bolton Wanderers would like to thank Ben for his contributions and wish him well for the future.

i hope he comes back in the summer, he was excellent when he came in. He will be a free transfer i think so it's his wages we would need to think about, although i have no idea what he gets from United at the moment.

Bogdan is staying.

Bogdan could get better and out shine Amos.

I would imagine neither bogdan or amos would sign a new contract with us if the other did aswell.

Personally I would pick Amos.

Amos is easily the best keeper - he didn't put a foot wrong during his spell and his performance at Wigan was one of the best by a BWFC keeper in many a year.

Unfortunately I suspect Bogdan will be the number 1 next season and we'll be back to two good games, then a clanger, two good games, another clanger and dropped.

Bogdan just doesn't have that eye of the tiger, I could always tell that years ago when he was jussi's shadow.

nat you are a clown, bogdan is much better than Amos and easily the best keeper in the league

Boggers is right, Bogdan's a better keeper. His issue is fitness, which I'm not convinced by.

i personally think Lonergan is better than either of them but thats just my opinion.

Probably shows there's not a lot between any of them considering the split in opinion amongst fans.

i would agree they've all had good spells but no-one stands out as being head and shoulders aboove the others

Amos.
Lonners.
Boggers.

Steve Banks was better than any of 'em - Fact!

no Kevin Rose was the best  i remember he had his own cartoon in the Normid Nomad fanzine called Kevin Rose he never grows

Ok, I'll give you that one.

I remember reading Rose's profile in the programme and it saying he was 6' 1" or something.

Yeah, right.....course he was.

(Just googled them and discovered that they both combined only played 30 games for us - Banks 20 and Rose 10. Felt like a lot more at the time.....)
