Anyway, bring on the game, and let's hope the strikers are trying to prove a point, play brilliantly and it was all genius mind games from The Dougster.
Allardyce constantly was saying we needed new players. Nobody complained then....

But it's either right or wrong. You can't say one manager doing it is fine but another is not......

Yes you can. It's like saying the UN can police the world, but Uganda can f*ck right off..
Perfectly acceptable. Another example, My wife (who's a head teacher) can privately tutor your kids, but my border collie (with no teaching qualifications whatsoever) should not.

This fella is available on a free (although like Hall would be subject to tribunal.) Could give him a go, he's earned a few rave reviews throughout the closed season: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Max_Clayton" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Aye but we are talking two people in the same role. A manager saying he needs new players is either a bad idea or it isn't.

... just another vacancy Bruce. Must be 10 now.

I'm glad he got his recruitment done early, whilst bidding his time "being patient" at one & the same time. Thank goodness he already knows his January list.

Before Sam Vokes went to Burnley he had 6 in 49 games. Sometimes you have to take a chance

Insano - wrt the lack of striker just wonder why we let Sordell go for a pittance/ loss, given we didn't have a replacement in place ? surely he would have been an option to keep and try, since his homesickness seems to have been bullshittery

Clearly it isn't up to DF is it? He doesn't control the club finances.

No doubt you have a quote from Marvin to support that statement - only one I saw was just before he left, saying that he had never said he was homesick.
IMO Sordell is better and with more potential than either of our current 2. Game of opinions and all that.

Because Sordell had his chances here and never looked to be worth anything at all. We had a cash offer and at the time were looking to fund a move for Juke.
