Got to say, I'm not overly impressed with our transfers so far.

We've made some good cash and from what I've seen, we just haven't used it.

It's evident that an experienced and proven striker is needed and there are no whiffs of that happening.

We may have a few days left to save this but its gone completely quiet and we are already 5 games in from today...

Disappointed...

The lack of a quality striker is seriously going to bite us in the behind further in the season.

Montel Gibson, Alhagi Touray Sisay, Ira Jackson Jr, Virgil Gomis. That’s what happens when you take any striker going just to make up the numbers.

Our recruitment since last summer has been excellent. There are 5 days left until the end of the window, and I suspect more so than ever that this will be a window where things happen late for most clubs. Chill out.

Totaly agree with this  18 months or more without a main striker is a bit beyond belief realy..  Yes good strikers are not as plentyfull as other areas and cost money  but without one you will struggle as you go up the leagues . Hurst needs to start living in the real world and spend some cash because thats what it takes

We will have made plenty of enquiries and offers, but we can't force players to come here.

The players we will be interested in will have options and we've already seen one target go to a club in a higher division as PH mentioned last week.

As the deadline nears, it will focus the mind and things will start to move.

We are still to see some of our signings – two of them attackers – and Wearne and Pepple are still bedding in/adapting. Add McAtee to the list and we are not badly stocked. I appreciate that we have a thin squad right now but that will also speed Pepple’s improvement as he is guaranteed more game time.

I see the usual suspects are back! Wheres Yoda?

Yes we all want a striker, but PH is not going to sign one for the sake of it. Just look at the names Poojah mentioned….

You’re either the same person as the original poster, really bad at sarcasm or spent the entirety of last season asleep.

Some flipping oddballs on here, imagine shitting a brick when you’ve no actual idea what’s in the pipeline, not to mention the fact our recruit since hollowayhead has left has been excellent, in and out…
