    Are you all not stating the obvious? Bruce knows he needs a poacher not a come deep striker we have bags of them, and hes tried getting both campbells and is exploring options abroad so how about a lil patience instead of mass panic after every game, week left of the transfer window, if bruce went trying such as barmby stubbornly wasnt id be worried.

    Im sure plenty will become available this last week lets not be rash

    That would be fair enough, if it wasn't for the fact that post match, Bruce said he wasn't optimistic about bringing in a striker before Thursday.

    And I can't believe that people still think Barmby didn't want to make additions, he was sacked for pointing out that he wasn't able to.

    I've always thought Bruce sounded confident but after his interview today I think he's resigned to the fact it isn't going to happen like the previous years. Unless plan z works and Gedo turns up. I carnt believe we always struggle for a striker.
    If we don't go up and miss out on this premiership tv money will we be on a position were we have to sell e.g Chester etc because we half backed a promotion bid

    Exactly - the Allams have spent a fortune this season

    Dawson - one year extension, waste of money
    Prostwitch - £2.6m - nowhere near good enough
    Amos - loan money - not good enough
    Meyler - £1.5m - overpaid, hardly setting the championshipo alight
    Jackoff - not sure what we paid but a bit wobbly to say the least

    Ive left out Brady Elmo Aluko Stockdale as these have all proved successful - but a lot of money has been spent - main problem not all of it is money well spent and Bruce is now using the injury to Fryatt as one of the reasons, plus recall McLean ffs - he seems to forget how much he paid for Prozzy - 2 goals against a league one team and 2 goals against the team which had the leakiest defence in the championship at the time

    Free transfer, so just wages. His international clearance was held up whilst his free agent status was confirmed.

    What about taking Vardy on loan? Vardy and Prozzy together upfront, a truly scary forward line! lol you may finish above 9th with that combination

    He scores more than Mclean so maybe that would be an option.

    Gedo would be better than DJ cos he actually wants to come and play according to noises from Egypt.

    if not Mclean will be recalled

    we might scrape top 6 but at the moment Watford will win the play-offs

    DJ played for QPR today - had a goal ruled out for offside (no surprise there with DJ!) - he needs to move because without the Cup he won't be playing much at QPR .... might therefore be back on?

    No probably not. Bruce said DJ was holding out for a team in London.

    Dj Campbell's **** don't give a **** about his goal record this season. Saw him against us, heis ****.

    Would rather have not signed Brady and put it all on Austin.

    Rodrigues only went for 5 mill coulda got Austin for 4.

    I'll reserve judgement until next week, yes we do need a striker, but I won't be criticising the Allams either.

    **** Campbell, he clearly doesn't want to come, it's dragged on too long.

    @ Circa - I like the idea, but do you really suggest we drop Koren?
