Give him new contract and play with support for him to stretch defences. When fit Baldock will do this.

If he takes a 50% pay cut then he can stay.
I would give him a 2 year deal on half pay with a healthy goal bonus then try to get the best out of him. If it works then great we have a scoring striker and if it half works and we can get better then he becomes a saleable commodity.

We let Dunk run down his contract?

Dunk signed a four year deal last year.
Also someone's taking a HUGE risk not signing JFC up on a 5 yr megabux deal.
Don't forget Kemy. We need to get him locked into a 10 year take as much as you like deal.

what's this thing called a 'contract ?

Not seen such Bravery!
He's had a good stint with us, and won't get any better. Let him go elsewhere, and put the wages towards another striker.
The savings on the wages of CMS and Kemy should allow us to sign a couple of decent strikers to complement COG and Baldock.

Given the money we spent on him and the wages he's lapped up I'd say he's been our worst signing ever.

corrected for you
He's patently failed under several coaches/managers, and at age 31 plus, will be rapidly losing the only thing he was moderatly good at, at Championship level ... stamina and shuttle sprints. To fit a system around a failed striker would be madness, and would use up some of the precious player payroll budget. Time for the club and CMS to part ways.

He is well past his sell by date , let him return to Peterborough for nothing in the summer.

The bloke has tried his arse off, BUT it just hasn't worked for him. He looked completely ****ing pissed off on Saturday. Ran the channels as usual, had a few attempts at goal, exhibited his usual abysmal first touch. I really like his effort and I'd love him to score a hat trick on Tuesday but unless he gets the opportunity to play with a strike-partner (and that aint going to happen) he should go and play his football somewhere else.

This is based on the fact that CH tried to sign him for Norwich so obviously rates him.

There's only one Chris O'Grady who, despite all the positive messages that came out when he was denied a move to Sheffield, has been completely bloody sidelined in favour of a top bloke, who runs his heart out, tries as hard as he can, expends more effort than anyone else on the field... and is still pretty bloody ineffective.
Time to start COG week after week instead.

Smashing fella but he has failed miserably.
He should've scored a hat trick at least yesterday, there is no time for sentiment now.
Not up for the job.

CMS is not really what we need, even if the budget means we are trading down a bit (which i hope is not the case)
10/10 for effort, 3/10 for end result, thanks Craig but the door is that way.
