OK, you don't accept it. Now what ?

Oh OK, sorry I'm clearly mixing you up with someone else. So difficult chatting anonymously with people you don't know (is my excuse :)) I agree that we need another striker as back up to replace Wilson. I just don't want to jump to conclusions as to why that hasn't happened as it could be any...

I'm not a 'club apologist.' I live in Suffolk and have no connections at the club apart from the friends and family I watch games with. I just don't agree with the assumption you are making that it is only money that has prevented us signing another striker. Waving a Cheque book is not the only...

Enjoy the game tomorrow everyone. I'm going for a 6-0 win with hat tricks from Murray and Elvis :albion2: :)

I think that perhaps it's a widespread problem. Such players are very difficult to find. Maybe a lot of decent forwards are hiding in premier league development squads these days. The midfield also has responsibility for goal scoring, especially in modern football where players are fitter and...

I don't think that anyone would disagree with you. The question is though who do you want to sign ?(rhetorical question, my point is none of us know who of the right quality is actually available). Do you think that CH has neglected to try ?

Indeed, he didn't fit their system and the manager didn't want to play him. Wasn't there some query about the Chairman pushing for the transfer ? Shows that just thinking of the name of a forward who has scored goals in the past may or may not be the answer. He did score some crucial goals for...

Ok, so assuming you are correct then why do you think we didn't make one of these signings ? You and others seem to be implying some sort of hidden agenda..or am I just missing something ? Are you trying to say the club is inept perhaps, or tight ? What exactly is it ?

No, you're not a fool but you are making it sound like some sort of formula: buy striker...get promoted. It is so easy to make a mistake in the transfer market. Perhaps the player doesn't gel with the team or he gets injured or whatever. There are no guarantees. There is a tremendous amount of...

It's a game of opinions but I didn't take the post that way at all. My interpretation is he is saying that the need for this mythical striker is being presented as a fact and then the conclusion is being drawn that the failure to sign said player means we will fail. I agree with the poster that...

Well that makes even more sense. If I were a young player at Chelsea then Fulham would be the obvious destination for a loan. My point I think is that there is a lot more to a transfer than availability and there is no reason to think that BHA will have their pick.

So you think we should go back in time and sign a player ? Even if time travel were possible how do you know he would want to sign for us ? Maybe there's a reason Chelsea wanted him at Bristol City ? If he had an equally great start to the season but hadn't scored any goals (if perhaps he had...

It's a shame all the positivity of last season has disappeared from NSC. People need to be able to cope with a few setbacks and not go to pieces with such ridiculous exaggeration. Pull yourselves together and stop this self indulgent group therapy is my advice !!!!!!!!

Even if we had bought a quality striker we would go through periods where we don't score. All teams could do with a top striker but they don't grow on trees and from what I've seen if we had one they wouldn't have had much service this season. I just think it's becoming a mantra that all our...
