True our strikers haven't contributed to the goals so much that losing Hannah is disastrous, but, if we're playing with Cook and...?... Up front, then can we realistically put their defences under constant threat like we have in the last few games at BP. One thing for sure is cookie is playing his best stuff for town so far, so he is definitely going to be dangerous, but if he is winning headers with no real partner to pick up the follow on, how effective can he be? Do we just replace Hannah with G Pearson and hope he shows us something which we've not yet seen? Can we realistically play Cook as a lone striker? Thoughts...? ATAW

G Pearson has scored goals at this level and higher, I would love it if he could show us something in these 2 games. As for Southwell, he gets into scoring positions almost every game he plays, which shows he has class, and has a few assists to his name this season IIRC. I like Southwell coming on the wing and stretching the full back's legs in the last 20mins really, and though I've seen nothing of Rankine, he doesn't sound like a suitable replacement for Hannah over this period.

Throw into the mix an occasional blinder from Niven and I say we pretty alright

I think Greg could surprise us over this Christmas. Rewards come to those who give effort and these two certainly do

Over the last few games it's an area we've started to look dangerous at, so here's hoping!!

My son plays for school of excellence which is so well run without any funding and can see some future stars in the lower age teams.
