    All signs point to Chris O'grady if you ask me! Family are still in Barnsley, something different to what we have, on the fringes of Brighton team, must be 30 now for experience! Might be willing to take a pay cut for regular football and seeing his family again??? Plus it fits this "surprised his names not come up yet" thing from Nixon

    Would absolutely love O'Grady. He can score for fun at this level. With a point to prove. Big, Strong, great touch.

    I haven't even thought of him, because I can't see it. But if it were to happen I would genuinely be as happy as any signing we've made in recent years.

    They've just signed Zamora too but I just can't see it.

    It'd be some pay cut he'd be taking.

    Great player like.

    Asked Nixon and he said it's a bid for a player. Not a free agent who we've seen today.

    Club doing well to keep this quiet.

    Frustratingly exciting.

    CO'G would be an immense signing for this league.

    To be honest I think half of it is just made up to generate publicity. Notice he never mentions names always spurious hints.

    Another guess could be Alex Revell from Cardiff?

    Another one I've looked and would definitely want.

    No he's really good with his information on us so i'm pretty certain he's got a really good insider at the club. He's not going to name names as that would piss off the person he's getting his information off. Imagine him naming a person we are speaking to or about to sign and it doesn't happen because another club get wind of it and take him.

    Experienced striker, bid place so not a free agent, surprised name hasn't come out yet etc i'd say whenever we do sign someone it will fit the clues he's given.

    Strikers from the championship who we could be in with a shout at getting: some of these will seem very unrealistic. No stone unturned as Flicker use to say ;)

    Chris Brown, Blackburn - experienced target man who struggled with a bad injury. Big wages after signing from Doncaster.
    Tom Eaves, Bury - young but with loan experience. Flicker had him at Bury - 6 ft 5 target man.
    Chris O Grady, Brighton - no introduction needed. With the recent addition of Zamora he could be surplus to requirements - nothing new for him there! Wages :(
    Aaron Wilbraham, Bristol City - seems unlikely as he played a huge part in their promotion. They've recruited a french attacker for £2.1m this week...
    Marvin Sordell, Burnley - bit part player all last year. May come into his own now they've been relegated and Ings has gone.
    Alex Revell, Cardiff - excellent target man for this level. Superb player for Rotherham.
    Mason Bennett, Derby - 'wonderkid' who has never kicked on. Loan spells with the Blades and Bradford in recent times.
    Joe Lolley, Huddersfield - prolific non-league striker who hasn't been given the opportunities by Powell.
    Nicky Ajose, Leeds - player with pedigree and genuine quality at this level as proven with previous loan spells.
    Tom Hitchcock, MK Dons - struggled for game time despite being a key summer signing last summer.
    Andrew Little, Preston - bit part player last season. Goal machine for Rangers in division 2 and 3.
    Nick Blackman, Reading - former Blade who hasn't scored enough goals to justify a main striker role for the Royals.
    Clarke-Harris, Rotherham - played under Johnson at Oldham. Very highly rated and talented but I would imagine difficult to manage.
    Caolon Lavery, Sheff Wed - investment in strikers might mean he is up for grabs. (Running out of a synopsis now!)

    Your missing the obvious point that we let him go in the first place because we couldn't meet his wage demands, which I'm sure will only have gone up when he signed for Brighton.

    He'd have to be willing to take a pay cut to come back. Would be one hell of a signing though.

    Was only thinking last night when listening to football heaven that Caolon Lavery would be a great signing.
