Omar will probably be looking for a League 2 club again next season!


Hurst doesn't really rate Omar.

Not until his contract is up. He must be on at least 10k a week as a Championship striker who commanded a seven figure fee. Set up for life unless he's dafter than he looks. He's a league one forward IMO, with potential to go one better. Though at 25, he's career has stalled over the last 18 months or so. He needs to push on soon. I think he's at the wrong club.

LJL?

Scored 3 goals in 30 appearances for Newport and 3 goals in 42 appearances for Shrewsbury.

You don't like seeing us score goals then?

That’s what I thought! We don’t even need him to take penalties and definitely not to show our current bunch how to take goal chances.

I think those who said Podge was 'a flat track bully' who could only score against lower opposition and that he wouldn't hack it in the League, must have confused him for Lennie.

So the solution to having non-scoring strikers is to sign another one.

Amond was certainly a bit of a 'flat track bully' in the Conference. A very good one, of course, but his scoring record there shows that he didn't get goals against teams at the top end of the table - lots against the weaker teams, of course. Might have been down to the ability of our team in general to some degree, I suppose.

He's doing quite well goals-wise in the League which isn't a huge surprise as he did quite well in the League when at Accrington and Morecambe before he even joined us.

Few goals against the better teams and most of them coming against the bottom clubs, but then that's probably true for most strikers.

His goals per start are pretty much identical now in comparison to his previous League stint, though he obviously made a lot more sub appearances back then and I seem to recall he was played out wide at times. Oddly enough his best goals/game ratio in the League was with Hartlepool, the season they went down!

A pity he didn't stay as I imagine he'd possibly have scored a dozen plus goals a season for us if he had, but I can sort of understand why Hurst didn't bust a gut to keep him. A decision obviously proved a mistake when we weren't able to sign a suitable replacement.

As for LJL, I'd have him back in a flash if he was capable of playing week-in, week-out whilst putting in the same amount of work as during his time at BP. Not for his goals, pretty obviously, but for space his efforts would create for the likes of Thomas. His record at Shrewsbury would seem to indicate he gets onto the pitch from the bench a lot but rarely starts games. Too high a level for him or just not fit enough after his injury problems at Newport, I wonder?
