    Sorry to be a little negative however.
    I am starting to get a little worried now with 24 hours left till deadline and we still only have 1 fit striker! Am i the only one who is concerned??
    Obvioulsy still gutted at the departure of money grabbing ^&%^&$ Judas, we need someone ASAP.I am thrilled with the signings of Muntari & Sess but surely the #1 position is a striker, welbeck still out and only have Gyna, if he gets injured we will be stuffed.
    I hope SB/Quin know what they are doing, she never have sold him until had replacement nailed on in my optinion.
    If we do not sign striker in this window it would be absolute stupidity/ disaster for the remainder of season!
    As for the stikers linked... FULLER?? you being serious this signing would make us look like a laughing stock... taking Stokes cast offs, If we can pull Pav off however i would be a little more optamistic!! see what tomorrow brings.

    if we want to go for europe then we MUST sign a quality striker, fuller unfortunately isn't good enough imo, but i'd rather sign him than nobody

    I dont think anyone will sign unless its on a short term deal. Would rather have Phillips back for a daft 4 months rather than a injured non entity like Fuller.

    I think that the signing of Sessegnon has eased the need to bring in someone like Fuller IMO.

    He can link up with Gyan as could Richardson and offer alternatives up front. Remember, in another 3 or 4 weeks Welbeck will be back and Campbell may be in light training? No need to get another piece of driftwood in. We have just shifted one of those to Rangers after nearly 2 years of wasted wages and we don't want another one of those.

    If Brucie finds one to bring in it will be a 4 month loan only or a permanent replacement for a big wedge. I think the former is most likely but I don't have a problem if its no-one.

    And if it's a loan am I right in thinking that it can't be from a Premier club?

    I would hate to pay over the odds for a striker just for the sake of it. It will only be a about 4 or 5 games before Welbeck is back, so I'm sure we could cope with that.

    To be fair actually Pulis said after they game today, it was a mix up between him and Quinn, because Quinn had between away. Not convinced he's good enough for Sunderland where they are.

    No point been held to ransom for players. Hold on till the summer till we can get a proper replacement in. Sessegnon has played as striker before so gives us options.

    i think bruce will just stick to one up top like we did against blackpool ,we did well earlier in the season with it while waiting for gyan to get up to pace and we have plenty plyers for the midfield,so i dont think he will get anyone in unless its a deal what will be good for the club in the longrun,also we have welbeck back soon and sess can play upfront to so i think we will manage, fingers crossed

    I get this feeling we really are building a strong squad. Looking at the choices for tomorrow night I feel so confident we are making our selection from a squad of players whe I am confortable withand know that every one is good in his own position.

    I won't be there tomorrow but if Andy Reid is moved on wouldn't it be nice if everyone sang thank you Andy Reid, Of course se all know to which tune.

    i still think bruce is after welbeck in the summer and this is in his thoughts as to bringing in another striker before the summer who he could get and would they fit into his long term plans
