    How happy would you be?

    I think most people would agree we really need another forward. If the worst happens and Stokes or Hooper gets injured we're pretty much screwed - Sammy is in no way a striker and Bangura's apparently not the answer either.

    That would leave Keatings on his tod or recalling Rasmussen which is never going to happen. I'm very happy in every other area but we really need to sign a striker and I really hope Desmond et al dig deep and don't screw us over again!

    When we were like 15 pts behind I thought we would win the league.

    Not we're 4 points ahead. With the addition of a right-back/centre-back.

    Ideally we'd sign someone, but the Huns have a lot more reason to worry than we do.

    They do that but we still need some more fire power. We're fucked if Stokes or Hooper get injured and I'd hate to think what would happen if they both got injured - tbh I wouldn't be surprised if it did happen with the luck we carry at times .

    Euskadi, you sound like the board there.


    We need a striker. Striker in now will help in the long run - but how often have we said that in the last 4 years?

    Need to sort out the issues now for the new season, because we are in the unfortunate situation that we have qualifiers to contend with.

    January should be our building time, to make the best of the start of next season. New striker, and get the 'keeper situation sorted.

    I would be very pleased if we sign a striker we need a striker that can head the ball, and play up top on his own, don't even no if the players we are linked with are even suitable. I think we will sign someone most likely Jorge Molina IMO or even the polish lad Artjoms Rudnevs, if Stokes or Hooper are out for a spell it makes things difficult. I wont be too annoyed but now really is the time

    Id like a new CF but if it doesnt happen Im still happy. I'll just hope and pray that nothing happens to stokes and hooper
    It's not the creed or nationality that counts, it's the man himself

    As we are making noises publically about being in for a striker, it must mean we have money available. If we did not spend it I would not be that bothered this window but only if it was added to the pot in the summer. And we all know that aint gonna happen. So bringing in a good standard one should happen, especially with Hooper's injury record.

    I noticed that Lenny changed his tune in interviews yesterday as well when he said he may not be able to get anyone in. Sure I've heard that somewhere before. Btw Stags, I think Keatings has went on loan to St. Johnstone?

    Aye that's right, forgot about that one. We definitely need to bring someone in - we don't want to be living in hope that our two main strikers stay injury free for the rest of the season.

    We only need a tall and header-proficient CF. That should not cost much.

    It'll cost alot more now than it would come the summer. And with us currently 4 points clear and the huns unlikely to strengthen, that might be all the board are thinking about.

    I'd rather use Keatings than some of the targets we have been looking at

    we subbed on McGeady - he came good

    we subbed on Forrest - he came good

    we subbed on McGeough - he shown again that we have talent in our youth

    sometimes we have better options here as oppose to singing that big lanky 6ft 8 guy who's scored a record 2 goals in his career and only plays due to his size, for example

    None of the signings have inspired me. I have a feeling we went for that Polish fella simply to stop R*ngers signing him, even more so that we took him on loan instead of just buying him.

    Also read that Ibrahim has only played a few professional matches?

    No money spent either, but no players lost too. I'm not unhappy, but not happy either. When does the window close, tomorrow night?
