Josh Magennis, the keeper turned striker. 13 goals last season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewBlue Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 Aaron Hughes, Josh Magennis, Caolan Lavery, Danny Lafferty, Billy McKay? Might as well start it off... Not bad guesses. Wonder if Lavery is on radar. Magennis would fit striker/winger role. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yarddog73 Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 Proved himself when on loan what more was he supposed to do? Magennis won't be on much less and I've yet to see a striker move south and be as prolific as they were in Scotland. I'd have Holloway in front of him every day of the week.

jorvik_latic Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 If we are offering transfer fees why were we so bothered about paying Holloway a reputed 2k a week? Because he wanted, and got, more than that. Shez didn't want to sign him either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
palmer1 Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 (edited) There seems to be a massive obsession with a striker who scored in one game but held the ball up well. He has potential but if he is the measuring stick for every striker we are linked to then we are going down. Also Main was far better for us and scored more once Holloway was injured and wasnt just holding the ball up really well.

yarddog73 Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 Main was financially out of our reach Holloway wasn't, I understand your point but a lot of his work defending from the front improved us no end as a team, I've seen nothing from our new strikers to suggest they will score more goals and as importantly put a shift in up front.

palmer1 Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 (edited) I did like him & he was very good for us during his spell here. In will be very Interesting to keep tabs on him be t season at Fleetwood, big season ahead for him after reports of an attitude at Wycombe. We all know how a player behaves & works on loan can be different to that after a permanent move. In regard for our strikers can we wait & judge them when we have a supply on the pitch creating chances & not people like Croft who couldn't cross the :censored:in road.

dannyboy55555 Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 Where’s the law saying we have to bid what they value him at? If they don’t think it’s enough just turn it down. No need for a public condemnation! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PlayItLivo Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 (edited) Killie are probably trying to attract bigger offers for him, hence why they've gone to press. He'll end up at Peterborough, somewhere of that ilk. Edited August 2, 2016 by PlayItLivo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
