Good old fashioned striker...

[stss30]

Is what we clearly need. Other threads have suggested we need an English manager to get promoted. Rubbish. We need someone who can
1) Get STUCK IN
2) Win headers when we GET IT IN THE MIXER
3) HIT IT

My suggestion is we target Akinfenwa from Gillingham on a loan to buy deal. Enough FANNYING about with these useless Spanish CHUMPS. If Oscar can't win us games with players of his calibre it's time Bloom gives him his P45 imo. Thoughts?

Really? You make a big talk and then suggest a 31 year old 5ft 11 striker who has a decent record in league 2? He is hardly linely to be the big game changer who will gain us promotion.

Get stuck in..............Alex Dawson;he'd frighten anybody!!

 

[glasfryn]

get stuck in
score goals
tackle back
hang on a minute we had one of those



and we sold him because we did not think he was worth paying a little more than he was getting

and just a minute more breaking news
we had two that could have done that job

WTF is going on??

 

[Norman Potting]

Would he be expected to run through walls and shed blood for the team as well.

 

[supaseagull]

People will disagree with me, but I would get Zamora or Johnson for the rest of the season from QPR.

We don't need an old fashioned striker, we need a player who can operate anywhere in the front 3 , someone like Joe Mason or Mackie.

Jon Parkin (Fleetwood) fits the bill......used there purely as an impact sub, it works most of the time !

 

[Bold Seagull]

I had to check this thread hadn't been bounced.

Ulloa has just scored in 5 consecutive games! Despite a stop start season for him he's got 11 goals in 22 appearances. Superb.

We don't need a striker, we need our bloody midfield to put their shooting boots on! (which was why the injury to Crofts was such a hammer blow).

 

[withdeanwombat]

If it's not Ade Akinfenwa, then how about a couple of new Spanish midfielders to pad out the squad ?

Please say your not actually serious !!

A journeyman ageing striker who can't even make the first team of an average League 2 Fleetwood team is not the answer.

not doubting what you're saying, but the club has admitted he's playing with an ankle injury (SSN yesterday) and that he needs 'back up' .

I can't quite work out whether this is a deliberate wind up or not, a sort of poor man's Ernest, if you will.

Akinfenwa No, it's definitely a joke, I think. Haha. Ha.

I didn't think NSC was about in 1996?

the youngster's done well hasn't he ? Purely responding to a thread, this guy has all the attributes eluded to, and is at Fleetwood purely as a sub....when they need a goal, they bring him on, invariably works. May be a journeyman as you say, but experience can count for a lot. Opposing defenders have it far too easy, throw on a 6'4" brick ****house with 20 minutes to go and see what happens.
Only a thought , your ideas now ?

Early 1997, during the height of the protests, saw the first incarnation of NSC as an open forum. At the time we had a good old fashioned striker in Ian Baird.

The difference is that Fleetwood also play a totally different style to us as well.
