    So we need a no9, who, and by what means?

    Not a chance will we go in for him let alone a Luton sell him to us! Also I'd be amazed if we did go in and sign one of the 8+ target man type powerful goal scorers in this league. Would send out a hell of a intention to the league if we did.

    It's worth noting that a Burge is approaching his 100th CCFC appearance and still has frailties. With over 114 senior appearances for CCFC and Nuneaton. O'Brien has just 73 senior pro appearances for CCFC, Portsmouth, Dagenham and Barnet

    You could easily counter many points you make here, and some sensible points you do make, however... Burge has undoubtedly put better performances in this season, however he's rarely been put under pressure like last season, the defence protects and looks after him as a good defence should do...

    I think it comes to a point where this summer a decision is made on on them both with another Keeper coming in to give competition to the other. Neither right now can we safely say are top end L2 keepers, Burge looked to have turned a corner but his frailties are still there and even when he's...

    So we've some suggestions good ones too that in ideal circumstances could be doable. Alex Revell - Northampton Andy Williams - Doncaster Ricky Miller - Peterborough Tom Pope - Port Vale Adebayo Akinfenwa- Wycombe Uche Ikpeazu - Cambridge John Akinde - Barnet Jack Dyche - Scunthorpe...

    So we need a no9, who, and by what means?

    It's clear we need a new strike partner for Marc McNulty if we're gonna make the play off push a little easier. Max Biamou does the ugly aspects but is somewhat finding it hard to score, I'd personally like a similar type of striker to come in as this league is more suited to and needs one...

    Strange views indeed. Blinkers are clearly on

    The game is of opinions. Personally I think we play better with a target man, that means Biamou right now until we get one or the summer when we hopefully try to get one and go again.

    We have, and the issue is when the window closes your done till the winter. January is here now and hopefully MR is able to sign one of his list of options for the role and he comes good. It's make or break but without buying your target your limited

    Except the facts we cannot make the ball stick in the attacking 3rd when he goes off. And when he comes on we do. Granted he's not the ideal answer right now by a long shot but it's not as easy as getting another one and rolling the dice again. Still love to know who you'd get in

    Correct it is his job, but we're all happy to say where, why and what's going wrong every week here like we're all managers and all the relevant experience. I was interested to see what yours was I'm 99% sure if he can get a player in to upgrade on what MR asks Biamou to do fur the team he...

    We can all see the problem but where's the answer coming from, that's my point. Ponticelli I don't feel will work on the state of the pitches currently. Come late march, April yes I've said in a previous thread that's ideal time to go with that pair. Nice quick passing on the deck opening up...

    I appreciate your views on him and the killer stats in his performances and what we measure him on isn't up to it. He was a gamble and played far more than he likely thought. A goal in the league should of come but it hasn't. It's easy to say it in October, November, December but the windows...

    I hope so, Biamou does everything but the obvious. He's the only player of the target man type we need in the side. He has to play while the pitches are like this until another target man comes in. We've other types of strikers but the obvious strong target man who gets goals. They are the...

    Said it's ruthless, if you don't do it someone comes in and does it. Then went on to say he wins the headers and flick ons and we don't read it. I do agree we need a similar type of player who can score obviously. MR then went on to say list of targets but January is notorious for...

    We've not seen enough of Liam O'Brien yet to rule him out. He's still inexperienced as a player and open to development

    Alex Revel would be ideal. Players like that don't become available readily tho in January!

    Let's be honest we've learned nothing new today, the teams still short on certain aspects and shown we've players fit got there level. Consistency is a issue, but that's the level... We've no way of retaining the ball in the attacking 3rd when Biamou is taken off.... Goals are a issue in the...
