Sturrock: No panic purchases

Sorry I'm with DV on this one... removing Sam Parkin from the equation and this is one of the best strike force returns for a few years!

Barnet spent money on strikers and nothing else - every game was a great one to watch but they lost matches 4-3 and drew 3-3 etc... and got relegated.

It's a very amateur opinion that to be a better team you should sign a great striker. It's the whole team that does the job. Stopping goals being scored is almost a bigger task than scoring them.

Simply:
Great defence + Crap Strikers = 0-0 draws + occasional wins
Crap defence + Great Strikers = 4-3/3-2 losses + occasional wins

Think back to the first games of the season - games won because of Brezovan and a solid defence with a goal from our 'crap' strikeforce.
