as long as we churn out results then im happy for the attractive football to be on temporary hold.

This bloke is a gamble , no proven championship strikers in our team . . . . hope it pays off

he must have been very impressive on the training ground, for MM to sign him on the evidence of the lewes game would be strange. I have heard though that his touch is great and he can hold up play and bring other players into the game superberbly.

I think it will take him a while to get used to the english game, but expect/hope he will become a good goal scorer or supplier.

Only chance of seeing them all on the pitch together is when we are losing and MM throws 3 up front.
But I would quite like to see us play three up front at times. with leon playing just behind CKR and Turo as at the end of last season knight was playing some clever passes into dangerous areas, but sadly trolley and Mcfly were mentally and physically slow to react, completely different levels.

Maybe he's looking at a Kaz and Turo front pairing, with Leon on the wing. If it keeps McCammon out of the side, it gets my vote.

CKR is an out and out striker, he'll be one of the front two. He's not been brought in to play behnid anyone.

I can see CKR with either Turo or Jake along side him and Leon on the left.
Id much rather Leon upfront though and we brought in a new left sided player or gave Albert a it more of a run on the left.

Except he is not, according himself, he's old man, all the Bury message boards, he is an attacking midfielder. We just all called him a striker to pretend we had bought one, but now that we have signed El Turo, we can revert to naming his favoured position as attacking midfielder. (He also started out as a right back)

We all seem (including Mcghee) sure we're going to get him but I can't see how he's going to get a work permit. Even Yakubi had to appeal. Why are we not worried?

I don't know anything about work permits but teletext pointed out that he has an EU passport, is that relevant?
