The inability to sort the forward line out before the season has cost us dear - but not SDs fault

To be fair mate he's only started half those games which to me is a squad player

And 3 of those goals came post January and took us to Wembly and kept us up (goals v Watford away). Anyway not defending KO as i don't think he's good enough at this level but for the money we paid for him I think he's not bad as a squad player as he is a different option up front (pace and power). Put in to context he cost us half what is being touted around for Bishop

 

He's had a lot of games for a 'squad player' ........

........ your arguments don't stack up, one million english pounds for those three is very, very bad business for our club ............ oh and don't try and tell me that Oddjob beat Chelsea by himself, that was a team effort by all and who's to say that another player wouldn't have been there to head that ball in the net if Oddjob hadn't played.

It's a daft argument mate, and no matter how he played that day, he is not a Championship footballer. If we pick/sign players on that basis we should go and sign one of the 'cup heroes' from non league or League 2 who scored this season against Championship or Premiership opposition, cos that makes 'em really good doesn't it?

 

RE: He's had a lot of games for a 'squad player' ........

Again, as i said before I don't think he's good enough for the championship. That said you get what you pay for and £200k isn't going to buy you a championship striker unless the gamble pays off. Mostto had a track record of scoring goals abroad, a British player with a similar record would have cost 4, 5 times that much. Christensen wasn't bought by Davey.

Added to that all there fees would have risen to a million, not a chance we paid money up front, doesn't happen these days. Based on appearances goals etc.

I agree they have proven not to be good enough. What I'm saying is that at the money paid for them if they had been good enough we would have been very lucky.

Davey was shopping in TK MAx and we know that you mind find something good every now and then but you have to search througha lot of duff clobber

Well if he didnt think he could get the players or if he thinks he cant do the job then there is a signing on time of 4.10pm every other thursday available for him!!

Kim Christensen is a good player who is banging them in still...and so is Stan!!

 

I agree with Nudger, its not Davey`s fault.

Its Andy Ritchies fault and Nick Colgans and Marc Richards and.........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................MOST DEFINITELY .......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... someone elses fault entirely
