Match Day Thread QPR vs Rotherham

We haven't. There's a difference between being cost conscious and being able but unwilling to spend more than just enough to survive. The fact we may end up there does not mean anyone, from fan to owner, will be happy with such an outcome

But if we’re honest about it Yorks, without a competent striker we are going to be in and around 16th. Cost conscious or not; or willing to gamble that accepting 16th could turn in to something disastrously worse for the club with a bad run is running a fine line.

I am optimistic, however, that things will turn for the better. But as we all know - hope gets you every time.

We always talk about 20 goals a season strikers but we haven't had one of those since Austin in his prime. Not many clubs do have them, on average its something like 4 or 5 players score 20 or more goals in the championship each season.

I dont really buy that we are consigned to 16th ish without a new striker, we have to share the goals around as normal. Question is can Richards, Roberts, Armstrong and Bonne (or A N Other) make up for or better the goals we got from Gray (and Austin)? I think yes especially if Willock can play a full season and Chair continues to chip in as well.

I think we'll turn a corner even if I too would like us to get another striker.

We need one striker who can score more than twenty goals. Anyone else is pointless, unless they are a lot better than what we already have.

These are very rare, especially when we have no money.

A striker capable of scoring around 15 per season may have to do, with others chipping in.
