Albion close in on striker

[Colossal Squid]

I reckon in the 10 years since this thread started we have signed just four decent strikers.

Murray
Zamora
Barnes
Ulloa

Any more?

We've had a few here on loan:

Bent, Owusu and Wood spring to mind.

Probably had three times as many strikers who have been toilet in the same period however

Could we seriously be looking at the second coming of Murray?

CKR?

leon knight was half pint 1 goal in every 3 games

corrected for you...

CKR?

I remember Colin Kazim Richards being quite impressive for Turkey in Euro 2008 and thinking it was a shame we let him go. He attracted quite a bit of attention because of that tournament and looked like he was going to be signed by a top flight English club but nothing materialised

 

[Icy Gull]

Have to agree with Leon Knight on his day and Nicky Forster

 

[Sheebo]

someone like matt derbyshire at blackburn. dont know how good he is, but he did go on loan to plymouth wondering if he liked being on the south coast. then again that report does say league 1 experiance not championship.

Get. Him. In.

Leon Knight was signed in 2003 so over 10 years ago. He actually left in January 2006 shortly after being thrown off the team bus by Mark McGhee

Wasn't it McCammon who was thrown off the bus at Burnley (?) not Knight?

McCammon probably just missed the bus.

Neil Shipperly, good grief we must have been desperate

I didn't realise until now that McGhee had such a thing about throwing players off buses, but we're both right. Leon Knight on the way to Southampton, McCammon on the way back from Burnley. Any others we should know about?
