leadman Posted January 25, 2004 Report Share Posted January 25, 2004 now clist is of the payroll will this enable danny to get another player???????. i rekon cureton speculation will start again, do we need another striker????? it seems miller/pcock will allways get the first nod but i wouldnt be devastated if one of these and either roberts or lita at to start a game would you????? if we go behind in a game and need to throw caution to the wind we could end up with roberts(wide right)miller/pcock(centre)goodfellow(left), mothwatering strike force, oh and the poacher lita to come on aswell.

Robbored Posted January 25, 2004 Report Share Posted January 25, 2004 Cureton is strongly linked with his old boss Holloway. Anyhow - Peacock and Miller seem to be getting better with each game and it can't be long before Millers' barren patch ends. And...there Lita/Roberts waiting in the wings if one of them gets suspended or injured. Do we really need another striker? A month ago I would have said definately - but now I'm not so sure.

BridgyRed Posted January 25, 2004 Report Share Posted January 25, 2004 I think Cureton will be looking for a lot higher wages than Simon Clist! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobby Posted January 25, 2004 Report Share Posted January 25, 2004 No need to bring anyone in, we have competition across the side now and always a number of youngsters in the reserves/academy waiting for a chance. Miller/Peacock getting better, Lita & Roberts there if needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edson Posted January 25, 2004 Report Share Posted January 25, 2004 No need to bring anyone in, we have competition across the side now and always a number of youngsters in the reserves/academy waiting for a chance. Miller/Peacock getting better, Lita & Roberts there if needed. I tend to agree. However, a report in the Evening Post from yesterday, suggests otherwise: Danny Wilson told today of his desire to bolster Bristol City's promotion-chasing squad still further, and underlined the positions he feels could be usefully strengthened. I haven't seen the full article, but I understand that he's highlighted a midfielder and a central defender as positions he's keen to strengthen. Surely we have young players in the squad already who deserve a chance before we buy anyone else in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobby Posted January 25, 2004 Report Share Posted January 25, 2004 Another midfield player? Why? Central defender maybe, although Fortune/Simpson/Burnell could all operate there as well as Hill/Coles/Butler - how many do we need?? Oh well, I guess you can't blame him for wanting to continually strengthen the squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoke_Gifford_Red Posted January 25, 2004 Report Share Posted January 25, 2004 I don't think QPR would be able to afford Cureton at the moment. They are supposedly in financial trouble, and I think they would need to get rid of several of their players before they can bring him in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twaters Posted January 25, 2004 Report Share Posted January 25, 2004 We also must not forget we also have Lee Matthews who i think still could do a good job for us if needed, and ofcourse the super talent of Mrvin Brown we still are waiting to see. S o that is six strikers we have in our squad that could do a respectable job. 7 if you count Goodfellow who did play there for Stoke and was getting comparisoms to Owen at one point. New striker..Not needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Maesknoll Red Posted January 25, 2004 Admin Report Share Posted January 25, 2004 I tend to agree.

Surely we have young players in the squad already who deserve a chance before we buy anyone else in. If we can sign players who are an improvement on what we already have, I'm all for it, but they have to be able to walk into the team and make a difference. I certainly can't see the need for more squad players, although maybe a decent keeper to provide competition, rather than just cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted January 25, 2004 Report Share Posted January 25, 2004 I read last week that Hollowhead had gone begging to his board to get the £50 grand needed to pay up Curetons Korean contract. (I thought it was more?) He is absolutely desperate to get him. He has realized City are putting pressure on QPR. I hope it doesn't happen that they get Cureton and he is the difference between them and us, how ironic would that be. I could see that costing Danny his job.

PhatWill Posted January 25, 2004 Report Share Posted January 25, 2004 If Danny thinks we can get in another QUALITY signing then so be it. If its an improvement on what we've already got, then lets go for it. There's no time to mess around, just over 3 months of the season left we need to push for promotion...

Guest exiledred Posted January 25, 2004 Report Share Posted January 25, 2004 to be honest i don't think we need or can afford any new players unless we hit a injury crisis. We have a pretty deep squad in most areas now. CTID Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbored Posted January 25, 2004 Report Share Posted January 25, 2004 I haven't read the article either but if Wilson is granted the funds to sign better quality players then go for, I say. A central defender is essential with Butlers form varying from week to week and another keeper to put pressure on Phillips. Although the striking department is looking better each game an attacking midfielder would an added incentive to those already playing to maintain thier form and fitness.
