Hugo Rodallega

[Fordy]

Only going from what I've seen of him and he looked like dross to me.

[Shepherds Mush]

weren't we known for signing gems from the lower leagues and developing them into top players like sinclair, parker, bowles etc?

More likely to sign Camilla Parker Bowles these days....

Had it been a few years ago yes, but imagine his pace is dwindling now so would prefer to see who else we could get infront of him.

I can't see Rodellega doing much for us but then again I'd take David Nugent if he was available

Agree about Nugent, surely has to be as Gestede signed today. A few from Boro I would consider.

a no no for me didn't rate him at fulham and he's slower and older now , got to be around 35 .if he scored that many recently the league must be poor

[72bus]

just looked at wiki , as said above he's scored 4 goals this season

He's 31 (officially)

Is he Nigerian? If so you can easily apply a x1.4 factor to that to get his true age.

If Polter goes we need in my view two strikers as we were short anyway. Seems we are not spending and he could be a useful squad player for rest of season. Knows the English league. If he doesn't cost much then maybe worth a punt.

We royally farked up on strikers in the summer so desperate times etc.

I think our scouting network is pathetic and that seems to be what holds us back. Everyone raved about Brian Clough at forest but his assistant Taylor was the talent spotter who was a massive reason for their success. We've never been good at finding quality.

We used to be very good at it, but not so much over the last 15 seasons or so. Neither spotting or developing.

Totally agree.
Nugent is an excellent choice for this League.

Would be great.
