Will we keep hold of him?? Considering every club in the league now thinks they are gonna sign him plus a few others I think the board really do need to tie him down now. Hopefully he repays us for having the faith in him.

Faith? We threw him out on loan and only reason we kept him was cos parkin was sold.  We signed two strikers and he was lucky they were shit else he wouldnt have got a look in. Fair play hes taken his chance tho and is playing well

Agreed.  And he is replaceable, at the right price i wouldnt be too unhappy to see him leave and a replacement brought in.  Althought knowing our club if we sell him we'll have Holgate playing upfront next.

but we don't - so why are we talking about trying to get rid of the only thing that's won us our few games this season.

The winner at Rotherham, the winner against Bristol City - they might not have seemed like much, but being in the right place at the right time does not happen by accident, he created that space for himself and he meant to be there.

Fallon in - if he's sold even for 500k - Iffy will be given nothing to replace him with and we'll be relegated with Shakes and Holgate playing up front - Get a grip guys  :|

I would have thought it more likely he'll stay and we'll flog him end of the season to avoid the Bosman free scenario. Would be suicide to sell him now ...

Mind you, we've done stupider things over the years.

Chris - currently his contract is set to expire at the end of the season, so we will lose him on a bosman if he does not leave in the January transfer window and he does not sign a new contract.

Personally, I've always been a big fan of Fallon.  Even when he was on the bench with Parkin and Mooney on fire, he came in and did a stirling job, and was invaluable in our playoff push.  The game at Kenilworth Road where he scored a brace in a 3-0 victory, and his goal in the playoff semi final second leg made him a firm favourite with me.

I personally think he's quality and suffers from Crouch syndrome - he's big so naturally people think his strengths lie in the air and he can't play football.  Having played with a target man for many years - Parkin,  Fallon etc. all handy in the air.  It is not since Invincibile that we have attacked in a style that would suit the smaller player, in which Thorpe and Cureton both would thrive.  I think Fallon is quality, and it is only because we have been spoilt with Parkin in recent years that some people don't appreciate him fully.

Get rid. He's fucking crap. Couldn't make the team in a midtable squad last year, now he's our top man. Were fucked.
