    IMHO should have signed him in the summer. Did a cracking job for us last season and would have been perfect to lead line as lone forward. And fans favourite!

    7 goals in 5 so far this season... Take a bow son.

    Not for me, although Wilkinson hasn't shown much either

    The general consensus was he was too old and wasn't good enough for us.

    Easy to say we should have signed him in hindsight.

    Different scoring goals a division lower. His experience is serving him well. Back up a division and he would go back to 7 a season.

    It's not hindsight though ,we already had him playing for us just needed a pen and signature.

    Can't really understand how wilkinson has replaced him!

    He didn't score 7 in 5 for us or ever look like taking this league by storm.

    It's hindsight.

    We had the foresight to sign him to start with LJ Knowing how he wanted to play now .would have been perfect up front now holding ball up and a target man fro set pieces long throws etc.

    Might be wrong here but Sam looks spent in this system and wilkinson at the moment doesn't look like he can cut it.

    jabo could have been the difference yesterday

    7 a season wouldn't be a bad return if he managed to keep the ball in the opposition half and bring our attacking players into the game....

    Never mind Jabo. We should of signed up George Waring instead of Wilkinson. Although I do think there is the potential of a good player in Wilko he just needs to throw himself about more. 2nd half at Killie he was challenging for every aerial dual and won pretty much every header including a very good header for our goal.

    I thought the majority on here said they'd give him a years deal at the end of last season

    I said I would. But there's still a lot of hindsight being applied in this thread.

    Just my opinion,
    Although I support all the players every week I have never been in the club that winnall is a great ,sorry. He's just not my type of striker that's all.But a great ambassador he is and never shys away from a shift and graft at that.BUT I feel a JAbo type character is what we need in this system,possibly why LJ took him to Oldham as well.

    What ever if its Sam upfront on his own we know he'll give his all ,but I fear his all wont be that affective the way we are playing

    If were pushing for the top six then he certainly is not the answer.

    A lot of us did. Would have been ideal for us with our current squad, even if he didn't score many he would be decent off the bench.
