Backroom Tom Posted July 9, 2017 Author Backroom Posted July 9, 2017 Expectations very low on this one, all I've seen Rich comment is he is faster than Lambert which is setting the bar very very low.

Bigdoggsteel Posted July 9, 2017 Posted July 9, 2017 18 minutes ago, Wing Wizard Windy Miller said: Read that as this mystery striker plus one more permanent followed by 2 loans. Surely we would need more than that especially if Stokes leaves? Especially as Caddis could be the final 'permanent signing'. No problem waiting for the 'Premier loans' but we need 8 permanent players in surely. No, we don't need 8 more permanent signings. How do you work that one out?
GreenRover Posted July 9, 2017 Posted July 9, 2017 Stokes could get goals for us in league One. We had four strikers last season. We need at least four this season. Injuries and lads not hitting form. Competition is needed.

GreenRover Posted July 9, 2017 Posted July 9, 2017 Has anyone signed Emnes yet? Is he really out of our wage bracket?

Can't see Birmingham letting him go unless Harry has lined up a new army of strikers. He's a decent target man an a better option then Lambert, but being on a 3 year contract I find it hard to believe. Watkins at Exeter is also an unlikely target. Far too expensive and targeted by bigger clubs. David Wheeler of the same club is more realistic and with pace to burn, though more considered as a right winger. John Akinde at Barnet is also mentioned and more likely target. Would also be pricey Guess we will soon find out...

RoversClitheroe Posted July 9, 2017 Posted July 9, 2017 Lukas jutkiewicz rumour apparently not true sorry lol. Least it's new for once

What a signing he would be for League 1

Get this cretin out of our club. @#/? of the highest order. Agreed. Don't care if he 'could score goals in League 1 if he knuckles down' - I'd rather him not be at the club at all.

He played up front in the play0off final if IIRC, as the lone striker. https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/3668151/exeter-ollie-watkins-efl-young-player-playoff-final-win-blackpool/ In this ^ article it says he's a forward too.

From the LT article TM says; "We are short in the forward areas, we only really have Danny Graham and that’s what we’re working on" Stokes does not feature at all in his planning now, whereas he did a week or so ago.
chaddyrovers Posted July 9, 2017 Posted July 9, 2017 Could it be John Marquis? Turned down a new contract from Doncaster.

islander200 Posted July 9, 2017 Posted July 9, 2017 Just seen Luca Toni coming out of chopsticks chippie
JacknOry Posted July 9, 2017 Posted July 9, 2017 Faster than Lambert - well that narrows it down then
