Striker Needed

Hard to argue with. A third season of hardly scoring or shooting is going to be difficult to stomach. But this is about finding two or three new attacking players not just one.
 






Bring back Bryan wade!!

Let's not panic too early... We have Bobby Z and Harper to come in and on top of that we will be signing another 1st team striker.

In which case he is a monumental bellend and we dodged a bullet.
He might be a bellend, but he could have scored us plenty of goals, and could either help get us promoted, or could have been sold for a tidy profit. It was a mistake to not offer him enough.

That's a name from the past

He must be getting on now.

Not sure but he ws Fulham Youth team manager in 1977 so I would assume he was in his 30s then which makes him mid to late 70s. He bumped into a fiend of my sons a couple of months ago in Wetherspoons in Epsom my name came up in conversation as being a Brighton fan and father of his mate and Ken asked him to remember him to me and sent his good wishes.

Harper has never (from what I can find), played a league game at any level above U19's in Spain - although i'm happy to be proved wrong.

Zamora won't be fit to start every week, and I assume will mostly be an impact player as a result.

We desperately need a striker, as none of the existing players will get us 20 goals. We're running out of time.

We may have one (or more).

All we know from tonight is that one of our strikers cannot score playing as a loan striker, especially when playing in front of a midfield that wouldn't recognise a forward - let alone a defence-splitting - pass if it jumped up and bit them.
Thank goodness our first team is better - just a pity more of them weren't playing tonight. Big tactical error that.

I'm praying for BZ to have an Indian summer and not just be signed for shirt sales alone.
I think we would appeal to Vydra, as he would be looking to get into the Premiership as soon as possible, although our league position probably belies our actual ability.
That said, I would take 46 scrappy 1 - 0 wins this season.

Vydra would be a superb signing. So pacey it's frightening and knows exactly where the goal is.

I can't believe anyone is backing-up COG: clearly not good enough for a team allegedly pushing for top 6. Likewise Colunga.
