Theres a player who has come on as sub and scored at The top 2 in the championship.Must be worth a go surely.

No new striker = League One football in August, FACT.
Dougal said:I'm sorry but the wages is excuse is simply not true. We have lost arguably our main striker freeing up 6k in wages. This was not expected and we had previously expected to keep paying these wages for the foreseeable future. Dick Knight also said we had some money available to strengthen so we DO have money for wages.
Repugnant Toad said:Rather perplexed over not making a move for Lee Peacock or Jon Parkin ... although I'm not sure how much Hull paid for the latter, may be out of our price range.
fake slim said:The fact that no-one higher than Swindon wanted him surely vindicates that decision.
BensGrandad said:Nobody higher than Bristol Rovers Reserves wanted Bobby Zamora so that knocks that theory on the head
paddy said:I'm sure there are plenty of strilers out there playing in Premiership reserve games, just waiting to play some first team, competative football. Maybe loaning one of these till the end of the seaon is the answer and then in the summer looking at strikers out of contract.
Barnet Seagull said:Probably fair point, but chances are they aren't a 6ft lump. Premiership teams rarely produce target men, they come through the divisions
Stumpy Tim said:Arsenal have a young (Danish I think) target man playing for their reserves and he's scoring a bundle. No idea why we don't grab him on loan? Seems strange that we are supposed to have major access to Arsenal, and haven't used it for two years.
One thing I also don't understand. CKR is our best natural striker left in the squad. His best performance came when he played alongside OGH against Hull, which we won. And yet I don't think they've started a game up-front together since. Surely it's worth a look??
