Fan up the ladder Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Gavin Browne @GavinBrowne77 PD says #oafc WILL have a new striker, if not today, then tomorrow Matt Chambers @Matt_chambers New striker expected to arrive at #oafc before weekend. Likely to be tomorrow. No Furman, Simpson for Saturday. Veteran campaigner or untried youngster from Premier League club? My wild punt is Aaron Wilbraham but who knows?

welshgaz Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 I would of thought youngster. My wild punt would be David ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oafcprozac Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Tonks has had a good rest since he was burnt out But has barely played, however he would rip some serious arseholes in this division after in effect a year's rest. Be like a caged gorilla waiting to be released… (not a racist remark, before the thought police seize on it…) TBH i'm not sure i'd want to go back. The fact no-one else has taken a punt on him says a lot as he mostly did ok here. We need a nippy, poacher to compliment either Reid or Kuqi. However my money's on someone :censored: like Scapuzzi, or someone who has failed to rip any trees in loan spells elsewhere like David Ball.

oafcprozac Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 He is but is at PNE, or was last time I looked... Stand corrected, he's back at CIty, perhaps a possibility. Didn't score in 6 appearances for Dale in the league, scored a belter v PNE in the JPT. Then went on loan to PNE, only played once…. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oafcprozac Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 (edited) 13 in 66, (5 in 32 loan appearances) not fantastic but then he has scored a few in this league before. Tbh 3 or 4 might be enough to nick us the points to survive. Although we need 2 or 3 to get anything at the moment the way our pisspoor defence is playing. Just seen the goal from the other night, WTF is Tarky doing? He's drawn to the ball well out of position and defending a last minute cross we have two midfielders in the middle???? And I think JYM had decided to leave early to beat the traffic, he's nowhere to be seen! Edited March 15, 2012 by oafcprozac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rudemedic Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 The rumour rocking around was that Bunn was the one who leaked Westley's mental 2am text to the press. In fairness if Citeh don't want Bunn working Westley's slightly strange hours then they don't have to, he may not have leaked the text to the press but if he told Mancini or Citeh's academy chief and they weren't happy then I can see City calling him back.

Nippy, skilful and an eye for goal. Could be the answer. Although Dale fans didn't think he was an out and out striker. BUT he'd be summat different to what we already have with KMB not due back until the end of the month. I think it's pretty nailed on it'll be Bunn or Ball, although I have heard whisperings of Richards from Vale…..but that I can't see happening.

oafcprozac Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 I read that at first as Rickers! We could do with goalscoring midfielder like Rickers. Stitch's team may have been pisspoor but we spread the goals around. Dux, Ricker, Shez, Graham, Garnett…..good job really as the strikers were poor to say the least!
