Glad that most agree.
Beckford and Bothroyd are EXACTLY what we need, but are probably still out of our price range. The fact Connor Sammon is worth £1.2 million (Derby today) just shows how ridiculously inflated prices are for strikers.
Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊

But that is not what you said. You said they would not want to join us.

He got one England cap as a sub in a friendly in 2010 while still in the Championship with Cardiff, he is not close to the England squad now! I seem to remember he did quite well in that game though.
Whether we can afford him or not is another question.

Omniscience and omnipotence might be useful. Always knowing infallibly what the opposition and your own team-mates were going to do and having the ability to use that knowledge.....

I don't think Beckford and Bothroyd are that alike. Bothroyd is exactly what we need, someone with physical presence but also plenty of ability and can score goals.

Hard to see on the face of it, that said informed opinion on QPR seems to think that he will not be in their 25 man squad. If not, he will certainly be available on loan until Jan at least...
And exactly where did I say that. I said who on earth do people think we should be interested in signing, if the likes of Beckford and Bothroyd are not good enough.
I think somebody is misquoting...

No, No, No thank you. Have seen Bothroyd play many times and he's a diver always falling over and moaning. Not my sort of player at all. I'd rather CMS who gives his all week after week thank you, even if he did have a lean time last season by his standards.

Bothroyd or Murray would do nicely.

Looks like the latest rumour of a striker is put to bed then? Back to the drawing board we go to think of another potential striker?
Unless of course, he's playing it cool & bluffing?

Not going to happen but would be a great signing!

Cheers Bob, I wasn't certain of the circumstances so thanks for that.

If that's a bluff, 10/10. I reckon he says that 5% of the time as a bluff. Something more ambiguous would be expected.
Time to invent another rumour.
Everton did not look like they needed Owen tonight!

Oh well, i'm sure he'll enjoy his season in the premier league, turning out for the reserves

That's a relief... don't rate him... lazy and bad attitude... and before anyone has a go, would much prefer Beckford or even Muzza...
