Striker

I really rat's Allan Connell has did most that first season in the conference. He scored some cracking goals.

I live so far away yet feel so close to this group of players, they give 110% every game and seem united. Last season was unreal and it wasn't until the play offs I really noticed it.. The last time it felt like this was the season we got promoted with PH. For me I honestly think play offs are achievable even without a new striker coming in.

Whoever it is, you can pretty much guarantee most of us won't have heard of him.

Agree with what was said about Liam Hearn, he was the best striker we've had since Reddy and would have gone on to much much higher things

I think Hearn would have scored a few at League 2 and perhaps could have done pretty well at League 1 level if he'd avoided injury. I don't think he had the pace to play any higher. As I say every time someone talks about him, he wasn't quick. He had good movement, very good close control and quick feet which often helped him get past defenders, but you didn't see him running away from many, even in Non-League.

That first season, it was remarkable how many he scored, given that it took him so many games to find the net for the first time!

Not a striker, more of an AMC but wondering if anyone knows anything about Scott Pollock at Boston? 21 years old and 7 goals already this season.

Langstaff will go to someone like Peterborough…

Can definitely see us in for Haughton, obvious replacement for McAtee.

Dallas is still at Solihull isn't he.....If they don't look like hitting the play offs by January could he be tempted away ?

Yeah, agreed no chance we'll sign Langstaff. We won't be taking any contracted players from the top sides in the National League. Even those at Solihull are seemingly too expensive now.

Quoted from fishboyUTM

Ridiculous he never played more than a handful of games in league two. Should have played much higher for over a decade. I know he had problems in his early twenties and ended up in prison, for defending his disabled mate I understand.

I didn't know that he had been inside. Without his injuries, I suspect he could've cut it at championship level.

Hearn was ridiculously exciting during that Oct-Mar period.

But of his 27 league goals that season, how many do you think he scored against a side that finished in the top half of the table that season?  

Just 3 goals.  Solo strikes against Wrexham, Southport and Forest Green.

Quoted from ginnywings

Well, the owners have said that the aim is to improve with every transfer window, and we know PH thinks one or two areas still need a bit of attention. It's almost certain that one of those areas is up front, so I expect we will go all out to bring in someone suitable in January.

On that basis, it's hard to argue against the fact that we are very well stocked in midfield and defence, so maybe PH has someone in mind to bring in next summer?  Maybe even January, depending on how our season is going.

Does anyone else think we already have the striker we need in Lewis Richardson?

As soon as he came on Saturday we instantly became more dynamic and got shots away often creating the chance himself with his quick feet and close control.

Think we should give him a regular start in the starting 11 till January before looking elsewhere
