Woking bag Saints goalkeeper Poke


Woking boss Glenn Cockerill swooped to beat the loan deadline and sign Southampton goalkeeper Michael Poke.

The highly rated The 21-year-old has joined the Cards for a month following Shwan Jalal's move to Sheffield Wednesday.

EX Southampton Goalkeeping Coach now at Portsmouth David Coles told www.great-save.com, " Michael is a fantastic young keeper, the lad has a great future in the game, in my time at Southampton he was a pleasure to work with and has come on really well"

This will be a great chance to gain some 1st team football for the young keeper.

Poke is yet to make a senior appearance for Southampton but got a taste of first-team football during a loan spell with Northampton last season.
Cockerill also wanted Stevenage's Jon Nurse but was unable to get the striker on loan for a second time this season
