Simpson on his way

[tigerman11145]

well if west ham are taking a chance on sam baldock why not us with Fondra then ? maybe a couple of zippy n nippy strikers will do the trick.

i actually like Mclean playing out wide where he can use his pace and strength. he may well work well with rosey on the right wing.

We don't have money to gamble with, WHU do

do they ? are you sure ? maybe you should check there accounts a little more closely ? WHU are taking a massive gamble this season to get back up ? but i also think that the departures of Green - Parker and Cole are not that far away. But to say they have more money than City is silly. Gold said that they face financial Armageddon if they dont back up.

Need to get someone in before we let Simpson go.

Baldock is not that much of a punt, he's the best striker in League One and didn't look out of place against Norwich this week, Le Fondre is a League Two player and a hell of a gamble(though he would be a relatively cheap gamble).

it looks like others are now acting whilst Hull City burns so to speak.

Not that happy with this. And if he goes to Millwall their front line will look good. Henderson and Simpson. The big and little partnership we need if we play 2 up front. Simpson has what Fryatt doesn't, pace.

 

[John. Walkington.]

Sources at Millwall deny that they made approach for Simpson.

Wouldn't like to see Simpson go. Think he has potential. Probably just needs a decent service and a couple of goals for confidence and he could be a key player for us.

 

[dorset-tiger]

If he goes, then surely another striker must be lined up to join the squad. But if NP keeps playing Matty up top on his own in a 4-5-1, then Simpson will probably struggle to get games here anyway...

what annoys me the most about this is that I know he's gonna come good... he's still so young (22). It's gonna hurt big time if he bangs them in for Millwall.

I just don't see a solution. He needs confidence and we can't give him more t ime to prove himself.

It's funny that a lot of people are feeling bad about this move yet they're likely to be the same ones moaning about our lack of goals... I think NP feels he just has to change something.

It is a real shame really, i can bet you anything we might regret this decision. in the long run at least.


Personally adebola was the wrong guy to get.

I agree. But instead of admitting a mistake and loaning out McClean who we paid too much for or Big Dele, he's gonna loan out a player who could do a good job for us. I hope it isn't a season long loan.
