    [quote user="Green and Yellow fellow"]Anybody mentioned Connor Wickham? I know he''s an ex scummer, still only aged 23 though, not getting regular starts at Palace and would do a decent job in the Championship. Everyone is throwing out suggestions, just thought i''d put another one out there. He''s not the slowest and standing at 6''3 he would certainly add a physical presence up front.[/quote]Great shout , was starting to score at Prem level and would certainly do a job in the Champs , young , and would pi55 that lot down the road off as well . Lambert has not been scoring for a while now and surely on a downward slope.

    Thing is who do you turn to now ? Assombalonga , doubt Forest would even consider selling , Kodija ? Bristol have already turned down Villa , look abroad maybe ? never been a happy hunting ground for us .The season is upon us and in my opinion we have not got one decent striker on the books , lets hope plan B goes better than plan A , thats if you even believe there is a plan B , what are the odds plan B will probably be plying his trade in good old bonny Scotland  .

    [quote user="HertsCanary93"]I''d rather we spent the money on Assombalonga, we''d definitely get him for the money being thrown around for McCormack.

    Both fantastic players, but one is 23 and the other nearly 30.[/quote]But then to balance that out McCormack scores goals at this level season in season out , Assombalonga has had one good season at the level and then missed a season with a nasty injury , no guarantee he will ever be as good as before or even if he was that he would score as many as McCormack.If McCormack scores the goals that get us promoted £15 million would be a drop in the ocean .

    Theres a reason why there are so few clubs owned by the likes of Delia now , its because they cannot survive or compete. Take away our parachute payments and our chances of ever getting out of the Champs would be next to zero theres just too much money about even at this level .Everything is fine for now while we keep yo yoing but fail to get back up and we suddenly look more a League 1 club than a Prem one.A bunch of filthy rich Chineese or Nephew Tom without a pot to piss in ? fairly easy choice if you want the best for your club .

    [quote user="hogesar"]Result and performance literally mean naff all right now. Win or lose its not going to effect our season. If anything these tougher matches where we arent having it all our own way should help our fitness more.

    Oh and Canaryone, top yourself.[/quote]Oh get you , really have to say thick (unts like you should be banned from public forums .

    Well its a good job we have the best set of keepers in the league because with just over two weeks to kick off we certainly have one of the weakest set of strikers and apart from McCormack (we wont pay £15 million ) and Asombalonga (Forest say they are not selling ) there are not even any rumours .People keep saying about the great business we are doing but a youngster and a third choice keeper does not scream we are going for it to me .At least Neil will be able to flip flop the keepers every few weeks now, i am sure that will do their confidence the world of good .

    If he''s that good whats he doing at Hamilton , going to have to sell Ruddy now because this guy is going to be No1 and after patiently waiting for his chance i doubt Rudd will be happy seeing somebody like this brought in in front of him . We were ok for goalkeepers why rock the boat concentrate on getting some strikers in because we are woefully weak in that department and some defenders so we can offload the likes of Martin and Bassong .Not seen anything yet from Neil this summer to ease the fears that he''s not got a clue .

    Last time in the Champs first thing Neil had to do was recall Bassong to shore up a terrible defence , Martin was part of that defence and is now 2 years older , should be sold or released on a free he has been here to long and is far to comfortable as well as trying to dictate to managers where he wants to play . Want promotion upgrade the weak links , last seasons weak links were Martin at the back and Jerome up front and we have already handicapped our chances with not getting shot of Jerome dont make the same mistake with Martin , theres a reason Brighton dont want him and that reason is hes shit .

    [quote user="Branston Pickle"]If, as is rumoured, we have put in a bid, how can you say we are ''umming'' and ''ahhing'' about it? And in any case, would we not be somewhat sensible to be sure about a £multi-million deal? Unlike some, we don''t have limitless pots to gamble with.

    Some people seem to be rather detached from what these figures actually are, bandying £7m here and £10m there as if it is nothing - in the real world it is a heck of a lot.[/quote]In the world of football £7 or 8 million really isnt very much nowadays , certainly wont get you a top player just look at £11 million for Redmond or around £15 million for Brady thats the amount you need to sign players that are borderline Prem quality certainly not stand out stars .As for Asombalonga well a lot depends on his knee if he is fully fit then £10 million minimum imo , but we should remember Villa are looking to sign two strikers and have the money to blow us away so i would think the quicker and quieter we get things done the better .Personally i am still of the opinion that with McNally gone whoever is supposedly running this club has not got a clue , 4 weeks to kick off not one signing done , not good enough by a long way .
