city1uk Posted February 11, 2007 Report Share Posted February 11, 2007 Getting fed up with all this knocking of Johnson because he didn't get the right quality strikers in.a) Do you know how many he was trying for? Could have been five or six.b) In both Holt and Pospisil's cases the fee was agreed but the player didn't want to comec) If the strikers are any good the clubs will want to keep themd) If they are out of contract end of season, the club will usually let them go, but why would a Championship or Premier striker want to drop to League 1?e) Who are the lower league strikers we would have gone for? Hayter is now signed up.Over to you. Name these strikers that Johnson has missed that you are confident would join us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dezgimed Posted February 11, 2007 Report Share Posted February 11, 2007 What an idiotic post..How about any striker in League 2 (bar Izale Mcleod)?How about any striker in the conferance? Some guy for Rushden looks awsome right now..How about anyone abroad a la Kevin Doyle? Shane Long?Theres a million options, if he wanted a decent striker he would have one buy now.

Hayter is now signed up.Over to you. Name these strikers that Johnson has missed that you are confident would join us.Quite rightly we are not privvy to which players the club are looking at with a view to signing, but we have to have confidence that they know what they are doing.We waited right to the end with baited breath (this forum was getting record hits) to see who we were bringing in, unfortunately not what we needed which was a left sided player and a striker, we didnt need a right-back or a right winger! Mr Lansdown was quoted as saying 'we have a list as long as your arm of players we are looking at' If we mean business and identified players we want then we should have gone all out to get them to get us out of this poxy division. This is what is so damn frustrating, to me it's the 'same old same old' that I have been getting for most of 40 yrs. Some younger supporters have yet to reach this level of frustration and I hope they never do. We are all becoming impatient in not getting what we, as loyal long term supporters, were promised and deserve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
