Despite all my protesting I genuinely don't have a problem with this scenario.
Fingers crossed the club can bring in another forward capable of leading the rotation.
If all goals are equal can we take 8 of the superfluous goals from Fulham, QPR & Charlton and include them into these games:-
Boro
Derby
Burnley
Weds
Preston
Hull
&
Ipswich.
Hmmm those highlighted teams seem to have something in common, I just can't put my finger on it.
But signing Zamora into a squad containing Baldock meant they weren't 'what if' they were 'when'.
Every player has a what if about them, not every player has a Kaz-esque when.
'Boro will that be the team that won 2 more games and drew 6 less than the Albion.
The same 'Boro and Burnley that'll be in the Premier League next season, or are we talking about a different Boro and Burnley.
Would that be the Boro and Burnley who spent money on goal scorers who went on to...
You keep doing this.
You deflect away from the season long fact that the team was short of strikers, with victim culture finger pointing.
You then get titsy when Ernest calls you Pravda, you can't have it both ways.
Once again:-
1 newbie
2 confirmed sicknotes
1 loanee - who unknown at the...
No I wanted promotion, and guess what those points dropped cost the club that.
They were dropped because of all the (great) games that were played last season, in hindsight, so many could have been filed under 'well we were never going to win today'.
and that wasn't enough.
Like for like swaps and hoping Tomer has another stellar season, ideally without the long barren spells, still gets you nothing in the division.
Yes the team got better in January.
But you can have the best wingers in the world, we're likely to have the best in the...
Because there's no way Murray, Hemed, Baldock and loanee/youngest will be enough to even match last season's effort.
Judging by the way the division is going it'll be, at best, mid-table, and that's only if they ALL are able to contribute.
Because all season long the team was clearly short of goals, let's not get blinded by 12 goals against 3 weak teams.
Tomer was flogged like a dead horse, because there was no replacement.
The Albion drew 17 games last season. Sure some were 'good' draws but nevertheless that's still a lot of...
Zamora, when fit, ended up as the de facto second/third choice striker, until his season ended (long before the Albion's did).
Despite all my grumbling loanee Murray would be plenty good enough in that role.
But that's all reliant on a marque signing arriving to play with Tomer.
Murray and...
and if that other happens to be a stand out, exciting, 'statement' signing then we'll be well set up for the season.
Anything other than that, which is my fear, (a fact I think I've done pretty well in disguising) is tantamount to waving a white flag in August.
Wow that's a low bar, care to tell us how many minutes each of them played?
BZ was fantastic with what he did, on and off the pitch.
Had he been available to play his part throughout all of March and April who knows how the season might have ended.
I do know the Albion were crying out for just...
Cos he's shitehouse.
Everyone currently getting their panties all moist wouldn't know progress if it jumped up and smacked them in the face while screaming 'I am progress'.
