I think it'll be latter part of this window for sure before we see a striker come in. |  |

So the 'imminent' word IS being used, I know it is preceded by'nothing' but it still gets the hopes up... |  |

Not expecting by the weekend, considering its Friday tomorrow we should hopefully not have to wait too long as he implies there's something close, very imminent is different to imminent |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

The fact he references this side of the weekend suggests there's some bits going on, unsurprisingly. Hopefully some movement early next week to get someone in the building and perhaps in the squad for Sunderland. |  | |  |

You'd like to think that the level of club he'd be going to are more than likely not/won't be in the next round and beyond. |  |

Yeah shouldn't be an issue. I don't think Kesgrave Kestrels are in the last 32 of the FA cup this year. Bants innit. |  | |  |

Reads very much like we're waiting for the dominos to fall from higher up the chain. Worth keeping an eye on Prem clubs signing strikers over the next week. |  |

Seems like that is next week? I read that Bournemouth want to recall James Hill from Blackburn but the recall clause doesn't come in to effect until next week. |  |

Let’s be honest the range of teams that would be interested in Ladapo aren’t going to be worrying about a cup run… they’re not going to sacrifice a potential signing that could benefit them in the league for a 2nd game in a cup they’ll never win. |  | |  |

Will vary I'd imagine, Brighton had recalled Sarmiento and sent him to us within hours of the transfer window opening. |  |

That is a pretty small pool! Stansfield - Birmingham Delap - Hull Burstow - Sunderland (very unlikely!) [Post edited 4 Jan 2024 16:34]

Are we going to have to introduce an ‘imminent’ scale for all transfers now? Phil, get Gav building one! :) |  | |  |

There will be a few others off the radar I suspect I do wonder if we would consider experience like a Keiffer Moore for example. It could quite easily be a young gun and an experienced player. |  |

With Hirst’s injury we definitely need 2. Maybe 3 if Ladapo goes |  | |  |

They are the only 3 strikers on loan at Championship clubs from the PL at present. |  | |  |

I have to be honest, I'll be amazed if we get 2. I know we needed another one in addition to Hirst, but getting 1 this month would've been incredibly difficult, so 2 would just be madness. I suspect it will be 1 striker, Jackson and Broadhead filling in at striker if needed and hoping we can get Hirst back quicker than expected and maybe making the games for April. |  |
