I'd like to think that what happened with Cody (him having a good season with us and then being signed for a championship club) would bode well for us. It shows we can put people in the shop window. I have to say that I found it strange for Hess to come out and say what he did about Lisbie, as he previously said that he did not want to name the target for fear of someone high jacking the deal. I can only assume that he isn't the championship striker that he's hoping to get (also taking into consideration that Lisbie wouldn't have signed on loan) so hopefully the number 1 target is still in for a chance of happening. The wait for a new striker is killing me but I am prepared to wait for the right kind of striker rather than just any old striker. UTG
What I don't get, if you don't want to name the person for fear of someone hijacking the deal, why start the speculation in the first place. I did think John Marquis, because didn't Wall sign a new striker about a week or two back, also I don't think he was starting every game before that signing. Surely Hessy cannot have been waiting on Lisbie? It just seems pretty dumb now, with all the speculation for him then to go to Orient. How much no longer have we got to wait for this striker, I really hope we take 3 points tomorrow, because I can see the questions being asked now. I'll probably be first in the queue! What's also worrying me is we have not scored in the last two games, so hopefully we will also put that right tomorrow.
Sooner rather than later. We can just hope that the Management are doing as well behind the scenes now, as they were during the close season.
