Now Gus has made the correct decision and rightfully told Reading they can stick their manager's job where the sun don't shine, we can turn our attention to the pressing requirement to bring in at least one striker.

Will it be another target man?
Will it be someone who can play off Ulloa (my preference, but who knows with Gus)?
Will we ease off on our demands re Prem standard, length of loan, proportion of wages paid, playing time, etc.?
Why not go after naughty Pete Odemwingie, or is he just too much of a bad boy?

I don't have any answers, but we surely have to move quickly to get the guy ready for our HUGE game at Forest, and would be interested to hear the views of NSC.

Over to you.

Whoever we get has to be top championship quality , be able to fit straight into our system and be content with coming off the bench .

Rumours gone round Matej Vydra is on the verge of signing a 5 year contract with Manchester United. Apprently Rooney, van persie, welbeck and chicharito are off in the other direction.

I understood it was definitely going to be Wickham. Or Pele. At this rate I'm going to have to rethink my policy of accepting everything posted on NSC as irrefutable fact.

I've heard it may be Lionel Messi, with a view to buy. The only thing that is stopping this move is his demands for three peanut butter sandwiches a month. Apparently Barcelona only want ten pence for him, as they do not think he is good enough.
