    No way is Bradshaw better. His first touch is woeful at Championship level
    If we are to have a chance of survival next season we need to find a couple of strikers from somewhere who are better than Bradshaw. That'll be easier said than done.

    You are being either argumentative or very stupid. Strikers score goals. Not one of the players you've mentioned come close. Put the fishing rod away and go get some sleep.

    Personally think O'Grady was a better striker than Winnall, he might not have scored as many but he played in a much weaker team & contributed far more to the team. Winnall's probably second best in the last 10 or so years.

    I'd love to be proven wrong but I don't think Bradshaw is & ever will be as good as Winnall

    Strikers are paid to score goals. He's the first one in about 20 years to score 20 or more in a season. Just because O'Grady was strong and played on the wing, doesn't make him a better striker.

    Disagree. A part of a strikers game is to score goals but a big part of the game is holding up the ball & creating chances for team mates.

    If you just judged a player on his goals Didier Drogba for example wouldn't be a top striker but anyone who watched him knows he played a massive part in others such as Lampard scoring for fun from midfield.

    I'm not sure what's to criticise about coming wide for the ball, Henry, Kane, Aguero all do it off top of my head.

    O'Grady used to come wide when he was up against big strong centre backs so came out to bully the full back. It worked a hell of a lot when we were battling to stay up in Flickers first season.

    I would agree O'Grady was a better striker. Sam's best ability is being in the right place at the right time to score. But O'Grady's all round game was much better, I'm not sure I've seen another player with as much upper body strength as him.

    Also, O'Grady scored goals when we were seriously struggling in the championship.

    I liked Sam but O'Grady was the better of the 2 in my opinion.

    Good strikers that don't score many goals. Jon Macken would fall into that category.

    Different attributes. Winnall the best instinctive finisher I've seen in years, not so good out of the box, but consistently returns 20 goals a season. But needs good supply. Very much like Payton. Macken was a clever player just not as ruthless in the box, but played a big part in others goals. I think it's all about the mix, partnerships. Would David Currie have been as prolific without Cooper alongside, or an Agnew in Midfield?

    Get real. Sam was an excellent striker for us and scored many valuable goals. He would have scored more if that pillock at Bristol hadn't started to play him out of position. I'd have him back he's not called Ched.

    We were talking about O'Grady on Saturday and he seems to have disappeared without trace. Without checking, I presume he is still on Brighton's books and on loan to Burton? Must be injured though because he hasn't featured for some time.

    Wonder if it would be worth tempting him back on a short-term deal to see what he can do?

    We can certainly do better than a striker who has 4 goals in last 84 games, no thanks.

    The regular partnership is something that we've not managed to find all season.

    Hecky has chopped and changed so much in that department.

    Even we fans can't agree on who would be our best front pairing.
