@SSGL: @mikesmith1987 @gstubbs1987 @graeme_hawley I think you'll find another striker is on the way - 7 in so far!

Don't think the link is working but here is what was said on twitter so the good news keeps coming fingers crossed Pusb!

The big bloke from The Green Mile is at 16's! I'd definitely have a punt on him!

Is the fella we were looking at before Norwood, when we had a maximum of 1 player only?

16 players are rated as a better chance of being top scorer than Cody

I know, I was just offering some affirmation!

Interesting that James Collins has shorter odds

The bloke from corrie for those who watch it will know him as a Cov fan and he's asked to be private messaged about who it is just repeating back what was said earlier not made up maybe they know something we don't. Though I would of thought they would sign a striker next week as we have a game on Saturday but who knows we had a few in already so you never know

Could it be Daniel Pacheco from Liverpool. Everyone seems to think we're after him at the moment.

And where this Marcello Trott rumour come from? Unless thats just balls...lol

Who ever we get will be; too young or too old or not prolific enough. Or someone we've not heard of. Too short or too slow maybe?

Trotta got 8 in 8 at Wycombe.... 3 in 6 in u18 & u21 football for Italy. I think he got two for Fulham in their last friendly too

On the Fulham website it said he put 4 past Norwich last season...or some team like that and he was only a substitute apparantly!

Me too. However, optimism doesn't usually last beyond the end of August.

I have it on good authority (genuinely) we are keen on Trotta and wanted him last season.

What's happening with Rob Hulse?

Trotta was the premier leagues reserves second top scorer with 15 goals even though he spent a third of the season out on loan. surely the premier reserve league is as good as league 1 sign him up if possible.

I wouldn't say you were. We need someone who can bang the goals in. I mean im confident Ball and Cody will score goals this season but we need someone who we know can run riot behind a teams defence and at the moment no one seems sure Cody is the one...and Ball is someone ill be keeping my eye on

Ball is a quality addition no doubt he will create at lot more upfront for us. Cody will have to deliver the goods but I don't want to put pressure on the lad I know he's got goals in him but I'm thinking with an experienced striker who has goals in him it will help ball & Cody get in more goals but we have Elliot too so I'm not sure what thorn has in his mind for his fave upfront pair I'm loving all these new additions by the way
