Wait to see what that dud Cairney goes for and tell them to add a bit on or #### off. We should insist on top dollar for all our contracted players.

would not take anything less than 6mil in this climate.

Bring Pirlo back!

9 points clear of relegation with a few young attackers knocking on the door. Personally I don't think we should be looking to sign a striker this window, not unless someone really decent turns up for our budget. I'd rather we have these young lads a go and make a call on it in the summer.

Hope we do not repeat last season mistake, when we taught we were saved! We all know how we escaped in the final home game of the season then.

this, lets give oteh and smyth some good experience now that the danger has subsided somewhat.

save our £2.50 for the summer window as there will be more dross to pick from than in this one.

Bit more comfortable but the danger certainly hasn't gone away. Probably still need at least 5 more wins. No time for complacency after a win against a poor Burton team no matter how welcome it was.

It could well be that Sylla will be off, but I suspect that Olli will use the money on a wingback rather than a striker. have to say I don`t blame him; like other on here suggested, I think we should give youth a chance this term.

Borryborrocks will go because Holloway does not like players that do not have English as their first language.

Funny thing that Ollie has played Wszolek more than Borysiuk then. Ariel actually speaks pretty good English. Pawel used him as his interpreter when he arrived.

No not sorted but when going out to look for a striker we should bear in mind Eze, Smyth and Oteh.

Also we have to remember Washington, sylla, smith and Mackie.

I would hate us to bring in another striker on a long contract if that means we won’t get to see the younger ones again.

Considering we aren’t battling it out at the top or bottom I probably would put a pause on finding a striker this window at least.

Wouldn't be too unhappy if we signed a proper wing-back or a proven striker though...

Can you play that system with just one?

[Shepherds Mush]

I don’t think it will be a bad thing if we actually went a window without bringing anyone in
