I think our main sticking point is being stuck with Kuffour as I think that it is probably blocking us getting another striker! I don't dislike Pittman as like you say Rocky he has had impact on certain games but I see him more as an impact sub rather than a regular starter.
However, I do appreciate that Gaz is working with the limited resources he has available so a good striker who can hold up the ball is not likely to be readily available and/or affordable. Also, judging by Gaz' signings since he has been in charge he seems to like to sign young, physically fit players who are quick so maybe he just doesn't fancy that kind of striker. I do think that limits us in certain games such as Bradford last year where we couldn't retain the ball and they just kept sending it back.
