This could be hypothetical with the financial situation but it is my opnion with the latest injuru news we desperatly need a striker in on loan. Burton is out for at least 2 weeks and McKenzie may not play for us again so I think the boars if they can should do all they can to get at least one loan in. The play offs are not guaranteed so we need to ensure we do not fall away even more dramatically. Names that could be available include:
Steve Howard
Tresor Kandol
John Akinde
Niall Ranger
Chris Iwelumo (ok we can dream)
Or do we recall Dickson and/or Fleetwood and Tuna? There is also the option of Waggy upfront, seems to be a popular choice and could have a real impact off the bench through the middle!
Parky did say last week Borrowdale may not be the last of the new faces so this could be an indication there is some money available for wages, now there are injuries to add to the need!
Also in goal with Robbie out for at least 3 weeks, I think we need someone with experience to come in. Randolph full deserves his chance but if he gets injured or sent off, can we rely on Binks. Here are some names that spring to mind:
Andy Marshall
Ben Alnick
Jimmy Walker
Aarron Lee Barratt
Colin Doyle
Iain Turner

I know there are parallels with Waghorn but that was in the Champ and Waghorn has actually done fairly well for a decent side this season.
Can't see Leeds letting us have Kandol or Ranger so lets look for a Prem youngster. Don't think we could recall Fleetwood and wouldn't fancy Dicko.
In an ideal world I'd also like a centre back such as Elliot Ward from Coventry who has just returned there from Donny
He did sod all at Newcastle too.
We've already got one Akpo ...... do we want another?
of service, surely better than the current options anyway.
If Parky really doesnt want Randolph playing then i reckon we should get Ikeme back, really rate him.
Fabian Brandy is not a goalscorer looking at his Swansea and Gills records, we need a goal threat. Sam Vokes did well for Bournemouth at this level!
I could be wrong here but I think Parkinson is operating in a 'someone must go out, before someone comes in' scenario. We only brought in Borrowdale once Jackson's loan had expired despite having no fit left back for the Millwall game. This suggests to me we would need to loan someone out.
Can't you also ask for an emergency loan for a goalkeeper even after the loan window has expired.
Do you honestly think any half decent prem managers would give one of their future prospects to PARKINSON!?!?!? They'd have to be off their rockers!
Parky should give Harry a call, as he'd do a job for us and surely Spurs would rather he played for us than sat on Millwall's bench. He can't cost a lot in wages either if he was at Yeovil.
And whilst he's on the phone to Harry, he can try and get Bostock as well.
I'd say if anything, Elliot has gone backwards, certainbly from the start of the season. Expected to see a lot more of Shelvey, Wagstaff AND Solly, so I'd dispute that Parky has done well with any of them.
I'd say Parkinson ispretty much the same as his boyfriend Pardew, just instead of a nasty ego, he's got no spine.
Wagstaff - you really expected more? A player who looked hugely out of his depth under Pardew? He's scored goals, won free kicks and usually had a positive impact when coming on as a sub. He's progressed well, and I know you don't like Parky at all, but a lot of that is down to the way he's been managed. It wasn't long ago he had no confidence and simply couldn't even be used from the bench because of that.
Solly I thought would have made more of an impact, but only because I thought he'd get a run at right back at some point. He was unlucky to get injured when Richardson did. He's simply not had a run of starts in his best position, in fact he's not yet started a league game at right back. That's not his or Parky's fault.
Brandy was wanted by Preston late January...
I like the sound of Vokes also . He has a point to prove re Leeds.
On the box last night, they did a feature on Paddy Kenny who had just been permitted to start training again.
But not only has he not officially trained for a year - he's not allowed to actually play until April 22nd ......!
Well, I was watching a wide screen TV
the forward line we are desperate for someone dickson fleetwood and tuna i dnt think will ever be the answer tuna perhaps in a few years time
unless villa will pay harewoods wages i dont think we would get him what about Delfouneso the young villa striker maybe that would be a good target to go for or perhaps Fabio Borini at chelsea maybe alex ferguson can lend us Mame Diouf but i doubt it with owen no out fo rthe season
we do need a forward and gk for sat game tho come on you reds
