Joe Mason (Cardiff) - 21 years old. Is bound to be pushed further down the pecking order once Cardiff start splashing the cash. A loan could be a good move for all concerned. 14 league goals in 69 championship appearances (37 starts, 32 sub apps) Weren't we linked with him during his time at Plymouth?
Matt Fryatt (Hull) - 27 years old. Lost the majority of this season to an achilles injury but is now involved again. Scored 16 Championship goals in 2011/12 (Out of Hull's total of 47). SCP knows him from his time at Leicester. If a permanent deal is too rich, he is also a loan candidate if Hull go up and strengthen.
Just throwing a couple of names into the discussion..
Scoring goals hasn't been the problem. The 3 wins we have lacked this season have been more about dropping points late on in home games.
We are 4-5 players short across the board of mounting a serious challenge.
Yes we need an additional striker, but will also need a central midfielder, right midfielder and centre back.
Agree with this clemmy. There's definitely goals in the current squad. We may need more than one striker though given the contract sutuation of Haynes, bwp and fuller.
That link is for last season.They had Button at Barnsley.
Sorry ppl didnt realise, Premiership ones are correct though.
On the Nouble front although he's prob not available now saw he scored a couple in the week, i didn't see him when he was on loan here but always thought he was quick and has potential.
nouble was dreadful in Div 1 signed for wolves last summer. 2 friends are wolves ST holders both hold the same view as me. Gone to Ipswich (loan?) don't know any Ipswich but remember he scored for us @ dagenham ....while standing on the goal line. Prefer to look at overall play & consistent goal attempts than one match (no offence intended)
Alex Dyer to Powell not to sign him - CP ignored him ... so CP says
I'd be wary of signing Pope. He's 28 in August, has never played above league one level and until this season has never been prolific. Could just be a one season wonder.
Unless there is significant movement in our financial position I can see another lean summer with lots of dashed hopes...
Totally agree with this. I think the majority of the names being put forward here are all pure fantasy given our current financial situation, including some of the league 1 players.
Whenever we haven't got a goalscorer burning up the charts people say, "if only we had a goalscorer then we'd be further up the league".
Then, when we've got one people say, "if only we had another goalscorer to take the pressure off X - if he doesn't score then we don't score. If we had another goalscorer we'd be further up the league"

Both really good suggestions - get on the phone to Powell!

I actually agree with a decent midfield behind him giving him service I can see him scoring goals for us.
We need somebody with pace to compliment Kermorgant. Baldock is a good shout, but my first choice would be Jackson.

It was always thus.
