Oh ok then. Because from what ive seen this season, what we need is someone to put the bloody ball in the back of the net!! If we had of done then most of the 0-1 defeats would have been turned around and we would have by now more points. The chances have been created. Dont get me wrong i like heskey but as a goal scoring striker..well he aint. Taking this into account would heskey be dropped? He aint doin what hes supposed to do...........SCORE :(

I think the hooker needs to lock down the flanker a bit more. The goal hanger who has speed can then head-lock the quarter-back and BOOM! That's why.

Why a pacey stiker? Er, because it's obvious we haven't got one and we are a plodding team, apart from Pennant and Gray. Put someone up front with pace and or who can finish, then we are a completely different teamand not easy and predictable to play against. Trouble is, there's no money to sign one.

Joe,

You hit the nail on the head. We need someone who can finish. A quality striker finishes and more often than not scores. Nothing to do with pace, just class and a eye for goal. We have seen this at times with heskey but not often enough. But thats what we really expected from his past record. he was never going to turn into a 20 goal a season man, sad to say. Hes a 8 goal a season man. And for our main striker thats not good enough to keep us in this league.

for me this is the post of the season, every word of it is complete sense


We dont need a pacey striker
We need someone who can put the ball in the net
Such as Alan Shearer or similar, no real pace but the killer eye for goal

We have lacked this for years

This alone would answer our probs

We have a good team on paper? of course we do, but we dont play on paper

never in the time ive been wit h blues have we had a 15- 20 goal aseason man (maybe claridge?, he was "pacey" wasnt he?)

The reason Pennant gets no praise is because his delivery is always wanting

The reason we never score is because we dont have the hunter (Lineker, Owen, Shearer, Les Ferdinand) up front who sniffs out goals

Problem solved

Signb Haisellbank!
