So no new striker for tomorrow 12:32 - Jan 12 with 1836 views | ChampionsofInnsbruck | I believe we’ve passed the deadline. I think he’ll start Jackson rather than Ladapo. I know some fans are calling for Broadhead to play that position but I can’t see McKenna doing that myself. |  | | |  |

So no new striker for tomorrow on 13:32 - Jan 12 with 1431 views | the_toff | It was unlikely that a player is going to join today and start tomorrow, regardless of any deadline. We've got a lot of attacking options, not least Chaplin, Broadhead, Burns, Sarmiento and Hutchinson. There's a very evident George Hirst shaped hole in terms of a natural and obvious #9 who can operate as the focal point, but I still think we've got enough about us to cause problems tomorrow night. I would imagine Jackson will start. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

I know it feels a bit like asking the tide not to come in. But still |  |

Where did I say I wanted us to do badly? I’ll be as excited as you if we win… but if the last few games are anything to go by, our striking options are weak as piss… but apparently stating the obvious means I’m sad. |  |
