A little disappointed in Hurst's comments in the paper if I'm honest.

A target man doesn't have to be someone massive who's good in the air. It can just be someone who has half decent body strength who can receive the ball with his back to goal, hold it up and play it to a team-mate.

Hurst seems to describe Oates as someone who can do the latter but says he needs someone who can challenge for the high balls in the air. I have to question the specific need for someone who's big and can challenge in the air. We don't have to play the ball in the air.

I'm not concerned one bit about whether we were interested in Jolley or not, with FGR being closer it's an obvious choice/move for him.

Tony Reece (sp) was a good target man for Town and he was quite small

All ph sees in a striker is a battering ram with no football brain.

It is not all about geography.  Wrexham have signed striker Dan Holman on loan from Colchester.  Wrexham is about as far away from Colchester as you can get in England.

Hurst said in the Telegraph today that Holman was not on his radar.  Well maybe he should have been.  It does not mean that we should have signed him of course.


Hurst also said in the Telegraph:
"The issue Dan Holman has in going to Wrexham is how much he will play. Connor Jennings and Louis Moult, they've got two lads that are seen as virtually being nailed on to be in the team, so it will be interesting to see how that one pans out for him".

Having 3 good strikers is a nice problem to have.  Allows for cover for injuries, illness, suspensions, loss of form or just rotating strikers etc.  I wish that we had 3 good (fit) strikers at our disposal.

Hurst also said that Holman has a track-record of scoring goals but that he does not meet our needs.  Goals are still goals and beggars cannot be choosers.

If Hannah is so brainy, why does he spend so much time offside?
