I find the painting of Norwood as our saviour after one goal somewhat more desperate. For me he's a symbol of our decline and failure as a club in recent years. If he goes on to score a shed load of goals and fires us to the top 6 I'll happily stand corrected. |  |

but we'd rather have a norwood than a baron bonne right? If we're to get rid of a manager due to results, surely that goes for players. Norwood has shown since he's been here, he's the best option upfront on the pitch i don't like the person, but I respect the player |  |

Norwood is our third choice striker, and rightly so. |  |

We don't know who made that decision, but it won't be based on the on field performances IF norwood didn't have the off field backround, i'd want him starting every week, he's strong, horrible and can score. Yes he misses some, but who doesn't, but the off field stuff is the only reason I don't like him |  |

Also it is worth pointing out he's been bouncing between injured and fit for a couple of seasons. Very easy to fall down a pecking order if you're showing signs of being injury prone. |  |

Pigott got 20 goals at this level last season, Bonne has scored goals at this level and the level above and has as many goals after 20 games for us as Norwood has ever managed for us in a season. That's why Norwood is third choice behind those two, it's based entirely on their on field performances. |  |

I like pigott, but he got 9 goals the season before, so we can't just base it on last season, Bonne, he's showing why there's a bit of doubt about him as a striker, started strong, has gone missing. Again if we sack a manager based on results, that same judgement as to be shown with players. Weve given Bonne plenty of games lately to no effect and Pigott soon has so show he's got something, otherwise there's no reason on the field why Norwood is a 3rd choice striker. |  |

And of course he is a massive bellend with 2 drink drive convictions, so also a cunit. That’s why I don’t want him playing for us. He is unfit and injury prone too. |  | |  |

you're right, he should be 4th choice striker (unless we bring simpson back) |  |

That doesn't really address my point. If we're using a sample size of one game then yes, Norwood is our clear number one. But only an idiot would use a sample size of one game, indeed your post suggests we shouldn't even use one whole season as evidence of who is the better striker. |  |

No one is doing that. Just saying he can be a useful asset. |  |

can't get my head round why 9 goals is such a poor season in comparison to norwood, when he get c11 the same year with a much better side? |  |

Makin has described him as our best striker. After his first goal of the season, coming in our 22nd league game. |  |

I think tbh you're taking it further than it needs to be He was indeed our 3rd choice striker Our first choice has been struggling recently our 2nd choice hasn't taken his opportunties, as brief as they have been our 3rd choice as must as we may not like the person, has a very good goal to game time ratio, so purely on on pitch relevence, there's no reason why Norwood should be excluded. As I say i don't like the person he appears to be, but im going purely on football matters. |  |
