New Striker News.

[pork pie]

Ok, let's all put yesterday's result behind us and look forward.

I don't think there are many people who are not in agreement with Gus about our need for more firepower up front.

All of the previous rumours appear to have faded, and those posting them are making their excuses.

Does anyone have any current knowledge about possible new signings? Just to raise our spirits like.

 

[junior]

No.

 

[Doc Lynam]

Captain Morgan would be a good one.

 

[Oscar]

 

[JOLovegrove]

I can't wait for the transfer window to be closed!

 

[Muzzy]

It's ongoing!

 

[maltaseagull]

Berbatov on a season loan?? ( I daren't start a thread with this mind )

 

[Deleted member 18477]

Think we're signing rhodes or Owen or heskey or Carew or Santa cruz or Murray.

 

[Ernest]

Imminent

This. It gets ridiculous now we have a little bit of money. To the point where it's not exciting at all it's just boring reading all the shit rumours.

Exactly, it just gets infuriating. And how much do you want to bet, if we get a striker, people will moan anyway because he isn't a gem, a bit like the return of Crofts.

 

[Dorset Seagull]

On a positive note if we don't sign a striker at least we will get to see how good our current ones are like Toby, Hosky etc

 

[leigull]

Nope, CMS is going to score 50 this year, so we don't need anyone else

Given the names that have been raised over the summer, some of which are clearly out of our reach, we should really have a more realistic approach to signings. Gus has mentioned the budget many times and that we sit somewhere around mid table in Championship terms.

Therefore when looking to put a name on NSC before doing so, write down a list of 12 strikers that you would like at the Albion, then cross them all out expect the 12th name, and that is the one we may get.

While the attraction of Gus and the brand of football is obvioulsy an attraction, money counts and we clearly don't wont to end up like Pompy and others.

Not a striker, but once Gus has shipped out Sparrow/Vincelot/Harley I can see us taking Josh McEcheran on loan from Chelsea...

 

[WildWood]

I thought that after Michael Owen was on Goals on Sunday this morning saying he still wants to play in the Premiership, wants to stay close to home & said he won't drop to the Championship, the rumours might stop...... or maybe not!

 

[Tony Towner's Fridge]

Are we after a striker? Hadn't noticed any thread to reflect that assertion.

TNBA

TTF

Quite, especially when it is the return of Murray. Of which I am convinced (with no sound reason than a gut feel) will happen.

I would be absolutely DELIGHTED with Muzza

 

[Baron Pepperpot]

Mike Small and Johnny Byrne are without clubs at the moment.
