Errrrrrrrrrm 'for the sake of it' i'd say we need a decent striker for the sake of gaining promotion.

[Bennett]

i'd say we need atleast one more defender, midfielder and striker...just to actually give us some competition!

Errrrrrrrrrm 'for the sake of it' i'd say we need a decent striker for the sake of gaining promotion.

I'd say you were wrong...

check how many the Walsall strikers have scored compared to ours...a alot less.

However their defenders have chipped in with 8 more goals than ours... :shock:

If it wasn't for our brilliant home record then we wouldn't be doing as well as we currently are, so i'd say im not wrong.

[hansgruber]

Actually, we're the best side in the division away from home

[bigbobjoylove]

I thought it was our away form which has put us where we are? I think only Man Utd have a better away record then ourselves.

Home form is decent but not amazing.

whats that got to do with our strikers?

If it wasnt for the fact we win games we wouldnt be up in 2nd  :roll:

Plus, we've only picked up 2 more points up at home than we have on our travels in the same amount of games and plus we've actually got the best away record in the league.

home wins 9 draws 2 defeats 3
away wins 8 draws 3 defeats 3

Our strikers have scored 27 goals between them this season
Walsalls strikers have scored 15 between then this season

Our midfield and defense have chipped in with 14/3
Walsalls midfield and defense have chipped in with 18/11

So, yes our strikers dont score enough goals  

[sonic youth]

We still need more goals, you don't sign defenders to score goals.

[DiV]

We still need more goals, you don't sign defenders to score goals.

no you sign strikers to score goals....and our strikers are scoring goals....so I dont see what the problem is!

[sonic youth]

So how do you propose we score more goals? Send Smith up for corners?

[Scot Munroe]

So how do you propose we score more goals? Send Smith up for corners?

yeah. That what Sheff Wed do with Crossley.

[DiV]

So how do you propose we score more goals? Send Smith up for corners?

why do we need to score more goals?

[sonic youth]

So we win more games.

[DiV]

as opposed to now where we usually draw or lose?
