    He's done extremely well to score even 9 this season considering the amount of chances he's had created for him this season.

    Yes he's not the most naturally gifted striker we've ever had but to sell him to direct rivals would be utter madness.

    In a more creative side he wouldn't be far off being a 20 a season man.

    I can't think of a sitter he's missed this season - he usually sticks the ball in the net when given chance.

    That's my feeling on the matter, The market "value" right now for a decent Championship striker is around that. If anyone was willing to pay it, then I'd probably be tempted to get rid, just because I feel we could probably find a decent replacement for around half that amount. But I can't see Sunderland being able to pay anywhere near that (although you never know), and whether Tom would want to go there is also highly debatable.

    Are you on crack? I've said it before, but you really should find another club to support, given your long history of despising players who give their all for Barnsley. Seriously, go - with all our blessings.

    Is this the same Tom Bradshaw you were lauding as having far more to his game and being a better striker than Winnall when he was at Walsall?

    He wasn’t dropped. He was rested. He’d ran himself into the ground playing 90 minutes 48 hours hours earlier. After a few days rest he was back starting the next 2 games

    The utter, utter bilge you come out with is beyond belief. So goals only count now if they come in one goal wins? How about this? Your hero Zeki Fryers' goal shouldn't count because it was a tame effort that only bobbled in because the Birmingham defence all fell asleep waiting for it to reach the six yard box.
    Again...I'd point out, though I know you won't respond, that when Bradshaw was at Walsall you used him as a stick to beat Winnall with.
    Maybe we should ask for Ike Ugbo back. You liked him didn't you? Mind you he never ACTUALLY scored because we beat Sunderland 3-0.

    After we'd sold Winnall and Bradshaw scored against Leeds last season he was lauding Bradshaw's praises and claiming he was significantly better. Now Bradshaw's become our key striker and has done very well this season all things considered, he's not good enough! You couldn't make it up

    Hemsie not liking a popular player, that makes a change.

    Might be being a bit dim, but isn't this the give away?

    I know there are a few people who contribute to the BBS who are world-renowned experts, principal of which is WF9's very own answer to Pep, but I'd guess the rest of us would probably give some credence to the opinions of what seems to be at least five professional football managers at a very high level of the game.

    Now, granted, Holloway is a bit of a loon, but, in addition to Hecky, the other three linked are all respected international level defenders, international level managers, or both. So, I'll stick my neck out and say that they just might know a little bit about strikers.

    He reminds me of me, or rather my aversion to commercial/celebrity culture and a fondness for the obscure.
    Actually that doesn't make any sense, forget I said it... :)

    The dubious goal panel gave him the Fletcher and Pearson goals so they are on the official record. At the same time I was closer to the Fletcher goal in them East Stand than he was so I’m claiming it.

    Expected Moore to start alongside him on saturday. When we brought Moore on I thought it's going to be good to see him next to Tom and instead we took him off. They have to be our first choice in a front two for the rest of the season. Finally we have someone to help Tom and do more of the spade work for him. It would be a pisstake to sell our top scorer to another side fighting a relegation battle. I would like to think we aren't that dumb, but you never know with our track record.

    Primary test for the new owners. We can't allow our top scorer to leave for a second year running. I don't think Reading will be that interested, but it would be a morale blow if they took him, weakening a relegation rival in the process. Coleman's interest is only because of the Wales connection. Bradshaw would be mad to go there. Big test of resolve for the new owners.

    There is no way we should be letting Bradshaw go to Sunderland unless of course we have a proven
    striker on our radar to replace him. Sunderland haven't got the funds to buy him, so if we do let him go we need to take
    a couple of their players in exchange. To my mind, Paddy McNair (£5 million from Man Utd) and Callum MacManaman
    ( £4 million from West Brom) could add to what we've already got.!
