    Who are we hoping for?

    Who ever we sign needs to be able to look after themselves in the air and offer something defensively on set pieces.

    Bradshaw was dead on his feet by the time we went 1-0 up on Saturday. It's hardly surprising with the work he's doing and the Saturday-Tuesday fixtures with 120 mins versus Blackpool thrown in.

    In an ideal world he would have come off and the lively looking Armstrong would have stayed on. Payne cant be trusted to defend set pieces, especially when the lead is delicate whilst Armstrong are Williams are obviously not the right build for it. We need a striker who is capable of playing up front on his own whilst also being reliable at defensive duties.

    Obviously scoring goals goes without saying.

    I'll never forget that defensive header he did at World Cup 98.

    I hear Dave Regis still has unfinished business at the club. I will never reveal my sauces!

    A Trevor Aylott / Paul Wilkinson type required I would suggest.

    I'd love us to bring Fletch back. I can't see it but that would cement us as play off challengers.

    Saw Gary Birch the other year playing for Chasetown and he's near on 25 stone.

    I'd howl with delight if we nicked Ashley Fletcher from under the noses of a team like Leeds. (assuming the stories of them wanting him are true)

    I think even I could manage a passing resemblance of Ships if they want my 'presence' up front........
