The point is our best strikers for last 10+ years have all been free transfers/loans... transfer fees do not necessarily mean anything per se.

Forget Wilson, Leon Clarke, Marlon King, McNulty, Armstrong and McGoldrick... Leon McKenzie and Freddy Eastwood are the best strikers we’ve had in a long time.

No idea! I’ve never seen this player play before!

Not really, got 9 in 47 last season which isn’t bad. At 22 has a lot of developing to do and perhaps Robins and his team have seen something he can add to the team. Some supporters have got to look at the bigger picture and wait and see how things pan out before criticising the policy.

He got 9 goals last season, which isn’t too bad. He’s still 22 too. My reservation is that is this type of striker needed when we have JCH and Biamou?

Biamou doesn’t strike me as a player who can thrive up front on his own! Perhaps JCH might be more suited to it, but, I’m not sure of it. 4-4-2 is probably the best option for us with our personnel. However, a big caveat is where to play Andreu in that system because he’d probably have to play...

We seem to have a disproportionate amount of numpties amongst our support, unfortunately...

Loans don’t work like this. However, there are loans that get cheaper the more their player gets game time, which is an incentive for the club to play that player. Our assistant manager knows Dujon Sterling from his academy days, is well regarded at Chelsea — even making first team appearances...

1 in 4 is a pretty good strike rate! The same people said the same stuff about McNulty. Why don’t people reserve their judgement about players for a few games and then start critising people.

I’m working away so missing the first 3 home games! Then the rugby season starts! Definitely going to have to book a few away days to see more of this promising outfit! We’ll win today, 2-1! A new hero in Allassani to be born!

He’s number 20? Must be leaving to Derby...

It would a brilliant bluff if we end up signing him. I stated earlier on that Jackett was playing a dangerous game whether it be this window or next when we made our move. Jackett made the mistake of making it public Chaplin wasn’t a first choice and at the same time not letting him go. He was...

What news is this?

20 goals absolute minimum or he’s shit.

Fun fact: I had jokingly put a 10p bet with my mate that he’d get injured that game... My PE teacher, a sister of an ex-academy player back then knew Danny Ireland quite well. Apparently that injury messed him up big time.

Shamefully, we’ve all done this cheat at least once in our FM lives... ... Danny Ireland made a great reserve GK for Man City...

We could waste money on any old striker to keep the fans happy. But, we have to be patient and wait for the right man to come in. Making rash decisions is how you end up spending £1m on McKenzie, £1.25m for Eastwood or £600k on Kevin Kyle. Even if we didn’t get a striker when the deadline...

Would be a good signing, but, it’d be preferable to sign Chaplin in fairness. If he wants a move, he ought to force it.

That obviously wasn’t the plan. Portsmouth haven’t been able to get their men either, hence the delay in this transfer. The way people are presenting this scenario, you’d think transfers are easy to get done, they’re not. For one game, it’s not the end of the world going in to the new without...

Freddy Eastwood: the best striker we’ve had in the last 12 years. Wait, that’s not how transfer fees work...
