Silly old bat
See this is the issue, I am delighted with our current position, I am delighted with being in the top flight. I am pretty happy we convincingly knocked out Palace and I am well pleased that the signings we have made for the most part have been very good.
I am also very frustrated that you, me, 30,000 fans in the AMEX and the overwhelming majority of BHA fans can see that we need to sign a striker and we haven't. I'm frustrated because we knew this was a key position to recruit in for some time, and we have been confronted with a lot of substandard excuses and no striker. I am frustrated when I am told that clubs don't sign good players early in the window and teams are signing what look like good players in the first 10 days of the window. I am frustrated that we have another bite at the very obvious cherry to sign a striker and as of yet we haven't. We have had EIGHT months from a position of strength to bring in a striker and we haven't. That causes frustration. I will still be tuning in tomorrow and cheering the team on, I will still love every minute we play in the PL, but it won't stop me being frustrated at not signing a striker. It's possible to feel multiple emotions.
It's a waste of emotions. Every team wants a striker. The rich teams get the best. It's not as easy as going out & getting one as fans seem to think.
Sometimes clubs hit gold dust with a Ward or Zamora but that's once a generation.
