Strikers are generally more costly other players in the Team.
These players, Cook & JCS, that apparently come on a free, when they renew their contracts generally get very decent sign on fees.......nothing comes free any more.
As far as strikers....the Club must do better as far as I am concerned. [Post edited 5 May 14:42]

I do not know about finances but reading this MB I understand Cook is on 'good wedge', JCS is no doubt on good wages with his new contract and his background.
A 'proper' CF is 20 goals a season man, good movement, pace, skills, take on/dribbling past defenders.....that's what I want. Agreed Frey could well have gotten a few goals, not so sure about Celar who was pretty poor all season, he even missed a penalty to ger his goalscoring off the zero mark!!! Kolli is not the answer, average at best, back-up at most.
Our forward signings, as stated, have been poor. |

It has been a pretty poor overall season for the lad, he has got good technical ability, more than most of our side, he is getting better, his last few games have shown the ability that he has, a well taken goal at Sunderland. It is very poor how 'so called' supporters have been on his case massive. |

Disappointing season hampered massively by our injuries otherwise we could have made good progress this season and totally ruined by the Nourry/MC clash that I understand has occurred. [Post edited 5 May 13:37]

Dykes & Armstrong are very limited players and it was good business to move them out of the Club. |

I believe most strongly that if we had a 20 goal CF in the team we would be a top ten team or even higher in the Championship.......contrary to many posters I think that we have a pretty decent squad of players when fit but just a little light in back-up players which is why we ended up in low mid table.
I do not understand why so many recent managers have not signed a 'proper' CF and forgone costly CB's and defensive midfielders - I cannot remember our last decent CF. |

Reply | Kelman?
at 13:15 5 May 2025
I met a person a couple of months ago who is a Orient season ticket holder and follows them away as well, so he has seen a lot of Kelman this season. He seemed to know his football. He was not overly impressed by him despite his excellent goalscoring record this season.
Likewise I have seen him in an R's shirt a few times and it is only a few times but I, too, am not impressed by his play. I think he has been pretty poor when he has played for us.
In saying the above, perhaps we should give him another chance here, he possibly deserves it but I do not think that he will be anywhere good enough for regular Championship football. |

No I am not Colbacks agent.....i just think that he is a very decent player and a big asset for the Club.
He was better that many that wore the hoops against Burnley, much better. |

But I have, so I can!!!
Really 'widely acknowledged'.....not so sure about that....the' slagging' may have stopped. WE all know it has been difficult for him but he has good technical skills in his pockets. |

....of Madsen's, quality taken goal today to win us 3 points and overall his efforts today helping us to win a very difficult match. And also his last few performances. Rather typical of posters on this MB!!!! Much improved over the past 6 weeks and maybe an important player for us in the future.
And don't forget another player who doesn't meet the requirements of many posters, incorrectly may I add (too old, too slow, gets sent off, etc, etc), that being Jack Colback.....another very good performance from him today playing at LB and supporting the midfield during his time on the pitch.....for the stats people - just look at his stats. |

I hope the Club comes to its senses and puts a decent affordable realistic contract offer on the table and likewise I hope Jimmy Dunne realises that his future is with QPR and not the Premiership where he would get found out whenever he plays, if he plays.....top lad and well done this season. |

If Dunne is going, and the ITK posters are saying that he is off, then Furlong would be a good replacement....... |
