    Bradshaw didn't always start when we had no strikers if we bring a few in now he has no chance of starting. Cash in if decent money and add to it to bring in some decent names.

    No chance, unless we have Fletcher & hat full of cash.

    ...Or he has more chance to start because he has strikers to play with that will compliment his skills? Our fans are unbelievable, we finally start building a squad that's not thread bare and ready to snap at a couple of injuries and you're all wanting to send our top scorer packing...

    For the record Bradshaw is a fantastic player, a natural scorer and a hard worker and will get a lot of goals if we finally acquire the players to provide him chances.

    I'm sorry I may be wrong but I just don't see it, I think he offers graft but it's not enough. I'm just not a Bradshaw fan and think we'll bring in better hopefully but I am big barnsley fan so not too much of a problem. With Thiam Moore brown and hopefully 2 more in fletcher would be great then that excites me and gives us options which may work with our midfield better.

    I like Bradshaw and would definitely try to keep him unless Reading are offering at least 5 mill

    You mention getting rid of Bradshaw and looking to thiam moore brown and Fletcher as our strikers not knocking any of these lads but Thiam has scored one pen so far this season, moore is unproven at this level may come good may not, Fletcher is also unproven at this level and brown has he played a league game at this level yet? I just think it's a big risk myself but that's just my opinion.

    It's obvious that Hecky wants to play 442 .He was kicked in the gonads in September with the Mcburnie debacle but fair play he cracked on with what he had . Bradshaw and Thiam will benefit from a big man up top and hopefully reap the rewards instead of running their nuts off for little return .

    Lets hope that he is not sold , I cannot stand another twelve months of people coming on here moaning about selling our top scorer in the january window , its been relentless , lets hope the club do not provide more ammunition

    This.

    For whatever reason, the better players we have always seem to divide opinion. Obviously people have different opinions but I don’t get it.

    I remember Winnall taking pelters and even people sat behind us were cheering when he got subbed off on a few occasions. Now he’s gone, there’s numerous threads praising his ability and moaning at the club for not doing more to keep him here.

    Bradshaw is definitely one of our better players and his goal record this season, working off scraps the majority of the time, is excellent. I’d definitely be looking to extend his contract soon so that he doesn’t get to the final year like some of our ex players. I certainly wouldn’t be looking at selling him.

    A player that has scored 1 goal in 32 league games excites you more than someone who has scored 15 in 64 games over the same period. Not much can be said about that.

    It is fine that we do not agree on Bradshaw and I'm fully aware of the stats but I don't find him entertaining to watch and feel the others may improve our team as a whole. If we persist with Bradshaw then we may not get out of trouble, he may score another 15 goals but we could still lose each game we need someone or some players to change the whole dynamic of the team if that's Bradshaw playing off Moore then good if it works but potentially Moore and fletcher may hit it off and score a bag full, Thiam who i have enjoyed watching him improve may also have a good 2nd half of the season. I may be wrong but that's what I would like to see.

    Bolton are quoting £3million for thug life Madine, so £3-5 mill sounds about right for Bradshaw.

    Madine was a right handful at their place this season. Handful in the air and scored two goals. Just the type of player we've missed all year long.

    Scored a cracking free kick last week as well. More to his game than Bradders for me.

    EDIT

    According to wiki he's only scored 4 goals. I actually thought he'd got more than that.

    I thought a bid for Bradshaw was "imminent". Someone else jumping the gun I see.

    No. He's moving to the coast. Immingham apparently.

    You make a strange response , saying that Bradshaw may score another 15 goals but we could still lose each game , what you are suggesting is that goal scoring is not going to be the problem but defending is , if so , its other areas of the team that require attention
