Evidently we had a bid rejected for Ryan Bowman at Motherwell.

Ex Darlo York Gateshead.

Not bad, but I think Motherwell are over valuing their players. Seems like they will want a lot more than we are prepared to pay-but we definitely need a striker pretty urgently

Looks like we are prepared to go in with a money offer for a striker which is pleasing. Definitely in need of one.

Think we need more than a striker with 3 weeks to kick off  we have half a team and hardly any games before the big day,,, worries me a bit

In HD?

Perhaps if you had bought a season ticket that extra couple of hundred quid would have swung it

Really?

Jolley's already explained the reason for the comparative lack of pre-season fixtures.  With all due respect, I judge the opinion of him and his specialist staff on how many games are best for us over anyone else on this forum (I include myself in that too).

As for the half a team.  We've more or less get two XI's in the squad now.  I agree we probably need an out-and-out striker, but I wouldn't be massively concerned if we started the season with Cook and Hooper/Cardwell as the front pairing.

Clubs very rarely go in with their maximum bud first time so if'd fully expect us to go in with an improved offer.

Perhaps Ryan may want to test himself in the EFL again so may push for the move, who knows!

Being 6,2 and a 1 in 3 goal scoring record over 318 games seems just the type of striker at need to fit into MJ's 433/4132 system.

A dangerous strategy Forza, mind you, I suppose we could use the money we get as well as the striker, to pay off the benign loans.  


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'
