Who are these poachers who aren't poaching elsewhere and will play for peanuts?

You have to find them, that's what's scouts do, plenty out there in non league if given a chance, always has been and always will be. I might even put my old hat on an look for one. For example no club has given Reeves of Altrincham a chance..I bet any money he would have scored against Crewe today. Why sign a striker from Bolton who never makes the bench?.. that's plain ridiculous. Edited by BP1960

BP, it is glaringly, shockingly, frustratingly obvious that we are lacking in that position. And it cost us dearly today.

 

I'm sick of Ibehre. The ball was placed on a plate at least 5 times today, crying out for a striker to simply tap it in. Where was our striker? Edge of the box or pissing around in a position he'd never score from.

 

Can we bring in a striker who will stand on the goal line and tap the ball in when our multitude of attacking, creative players put it exactly where any half decent striker would want it. No more 'hold up', 'false 9s' and that :censored:. A man who gets paid to put the ball in the back of the net.

 

Please.

What's happening with the guy from Sunlan?

Sorry its a no from me, stick Bove in, what have we got to lose

24 football matches...

 

I don't want Ched, unless his conviction is overturned, but we certainly need somebody because Ibehre doesn't cut it at this level in a top half team, and we're already mid-table and sliding.

 

If Bove is good enough play him, if he's not then don't. We've still got a lot to lose.

It's not just a true striker we need - there needs to be a much better contribution goals-wise from around the team. I cast an envious glance at Rochdale - far less resource than us but with a much more resilient all round team who have scored 10 more goals than us - and not in the habit of getting stuffed out of sight (even drew 2-2 at MK Dons away with a depleted side the week we played them).
