If he signs a new striker it will be as back up. PH has just got a decent partnership started and Hannah fit. Nobody of great note or reputation is going to want to come to BP on loan and play second or third fiddle. They will want games. So the likelihood is that it will either be a cheap standby in case of injuries on a short contract, or no-one.

Released by a ten bob conference team. Used to be class in the lower reaches of the football league but I suppose he's over 30 now and obviously struggling.

I'm a little unsure of getting in a striker for the sake of it when our frontmen building up good understandings with each other is important. Towards the end of last season there was too much fritting about between strikers when we brought the likes of Okinywea(?) in and tried to accommodate everybody.

Nathon Arnold sees himself as a striker though I'm sure Hursty will utilise him on the wing more and Jack Macreth (who looks a nuisance) can do a job up there too. I'm sure Arnold will prove to be real quality once back and running and I like this 'quality rather than quantity' approach.

Personally I'd prefer to see a loan striker brought in on an 'as needed' basis in the event of an injury/suspension crisis otherwise the delicate balance might be upset. But then again strength in depth is the flip side to look at things.

With hindsight and the way things are now it would have been prudent to have kept Southwell as a back up for injuries etc

I'd imagine that Hurst still thinks he can do better than Southwell.

I wonder if we'll be signing another attacker who can play wide and up front as well? It's been mentioned that Arnold can play through the middle so a bit of versatility would be useful - providing the player is capable at both tasks!

Perhaps a younger player coming in on loan from a League club?

No rush to get another striker surely?
