If we do go down I'd be very surprised if we're not mostly left with our Youth Strikers:
Kennedy .. Umerah .. Ahearne-Grant .. Pigott (?) could well be our choices next season!!.. Hell I'd even want to see what Polish Pete can do in League One but he's out of Contract this summer and cant see him being given a new deal
Very useful player to have in a good team. Poor player in a bad team. He's only ever going to be as good as the service he receives, which ATM is next to zero.

I like him as a player and I think he should be starting now, but I wouldn't sign him for next season. He is a handful but I prefer strikers to score goals and there are far better link up players then him
I really wanted Simon to succeed at SE7, but lets be honest along with the majority of the squad he really isn't good enough, and what we really need is 11 new players to come in with some bollox and bite. I say post him back.
We look a far better team with him in it then out of it ...but once again the strikers are being picked out when the problem is the service ..... We don't have a box to box attacking mid who can make things happen and being the wideman into the game
Behave Colin, not really a great yardstick is it, we look a better team with me and the fat bastard that sits in front of me in it.

His lack of movement doesn't help though, as he's so static, he's much easier to mark

Spot on - absolutely no link between midfield and attack at the moment. Harriott looked like he might be that man for the first 10/15 mins on Saturday but obviously things took a bit of a turn after that.
People said that about him in the Championship though, and he hasn't.
I certainly wouldn't pay much money for him. In a piss poor team - one of the worst in recent memory - he has still been unable to hold down a place. And there's a reason for that.

I had to do a double take of your name there. The end is nigh.

I'm not sure he does have the right attitude. Along with the likes of JBG, Vaz Te & Reza, he just hasn't looked up for the fight in recent games. Went straight down the tunnel at the end of the Huddersfield game without as much as a nod to the supporters who had just spent time & money to witness that crock of absolute shite. He doesn't put himself about enough, or make a real nuscience of himself which is exactly what his game needs to be.
Can you imagine how effective he would be if he had the attitude/workrate/determination of Kermorgant, for example?
To be fair to him every time he gets even vaguely physical the ref gives a foul the other way.
Partly true, but I wish he had just a tiny bit of grit and nous when competing for the ball.
Over the years, countless big lumpy forwards have turned up at The Valley and bullied our centre-halves into submission. Flippin' Emile Heskey (37) gave a masterclass a few weeks ago.

He's gotta unless he's a cheapo on the wages front .. for a man his size and the tattooed hard man look, he's a pussy cat .. started off quite well but is now a bit of a joke .. having written that .. 'prove me wrong Simon, get with the programme and start doing what you're paid to do, score some goals !!'

I'd probably play him at centre back for the rest of the season though.

He seems to be Peter Crouch with less natural confidence.
Doesn't help he has had no support. But really he should be twatting people off the ball and making it his not trying for the perfect touch.
If I was Riga I'd take the whole squad on a paratrooper training course right now. Build some intelligent muscling.
If we go down B.
Can we put Reza and Sarr on the same plane. A BOGOF offer. Not buy one get one free, just Bogof somewhere else because the three of you are rubbish?
- Bullying opposition defenders
- Heading the ball
