I''m not sure if he''s in the first team picture at Bristol yet so he would be a good signing.7 Goals in 11 apearences for Wycombe in League 2 and he''s only 20 so he could be a good steal.

It worrys me that the biggest problem has still not been solved. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michael Bates 9 Posted July 22, 2009 With your concerns with signing a big striker.. I rekon Gunny has a specific transfer budget and he has quite a few gaps he wants filled. Hughes signed, Whaley and Wiggins having medicals. Maric offered a contract. Mcveigh likely to be also offered a 1-year deal. Askou the defender on trial impressing so possibly another signing there... I would imagine as Strikers cost the most normally he will want to get the signings sorted in the next week or so and then know where he stands within his budget for the goalscorers. Hopefully he will have something like 500k to grab two strikers maybe? If we got Maric i would be happy with Gunn bringing in just 1 more striker that is of good quality for half a million :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

McVeigh and Askou.........I think we will be 1 quality striker away from being a very good squad in LG 1. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I still think that we will bring in at least a couple of long term loans. As for 1 forward i think we need 2 and imo Cureton should be moved on! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

O.T.B.C 0 Posted July 22, 2009 You''re completly right. Cody could be a surprise and I do think he will do well, but there needs to be a ''proven'' striker. But ''proven'' does not always get you goals, ala Curo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
