hasnt shown much to be fair, bit like Paynter, works hard chases but not a goal scorer, although he has always been top scorer for west ham reserves and rangers reserves and watford reserves

reminds me of Fola. Runs around but trips over his own feet like a donkey but can't finish.

I'd pick Cox, Paynter and Corr over him.

The lad must have some kind of talent, he's been picked up for some half decent sides already in his career i.e West Ham and Rangers and was tipped for big things. The unfortunate thing is that his career so far has been really stop start and once he gets used to playing regular 1st team football could become a mega player in this league.

I dunno.. he can pick the ball up and run which no one else in our team can really do except Cox, but Ashikodi is a lot stronger than him.

Not sure yet, I don't think he's particularly bad but not particularly brilliant either.

Corr & Cox however sounds crazy to some but if Corr not available then Sturrock & Cox.

Over the past few games he hasn't played very well tbh.
But I'm sure we haven't seen anywhere near the best of him yet just need to get a performance out of him.

We'd have no height up front if we did that. I don't think Sturrock can head a ball and Paynter hasn't been able to either, which makes crosses seem less dangerous.

Corr & Cox is the best option we have.

I agree Corr & Cox is best however based on the others I don't see what the others do that Blair can't plus Blair works harder, hence my reasoning.

Agree with you there, It looked really promising with them two up front a couple of months ago, the 5-0 Gillingham win showed there is a good chemistry there.

Cox and Paynter for me,Sturrock and Corr cant seem to keep the pace the whole match....Ashikodi needs to come off the bench and stretch oposition defenders when they begin to tire.

that was what, 3 months ago? Its hte only time those two have played really well together. Corr and cox have looked a much more dangerous partnership, with either moses or paynter coming on in the last 15 to run at a tired defence. easy
