Red Robin Posted March 14, 2007 Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 Watching citys lack lustre strikers,it stands out a mile that we are stuggling in this department,since the Brooker jail sentance.GJ has brought strikers in but none have really shone.The ultimate sacrifice of non quality strikers could cost us promotion,for me a quality striker would have all most guaranteed us promotion.We have all done the rounds with who we would like to see arrive at the gate,sadly the latter smith no end product,andrews major attitude are not the ones to take us up.Brooker is a shadow of the player he once was,Showunni goes hot and cold,Jevons again has hot and cold days none seem consistent in there performabces, this sadly I think is the biggest drawback to a promotion season.

Also I believe it is not necessary to win both games, if it is we should demand a rematch with Baadiff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
