Might be NP if Wolves get their first choice (Leon Clarke) in next week.

It looks like another week goes by without getting striker in.

It is disappointing we haven't got one in time but like PD said I'd rather wait and get the one want, remeber this game doesn't decided if we go down or not.

True, but it could be another 3 points down the pan. And 3 points at the end of the season will be all that decides it IMO.

Well if the players aren't available for whatever reason or just don't want to come there's not a lot he can do is there... I don't know what people expect.

Someone said on Radio Sheffield last night, he can have all the contacts in the world but if the loaning club or the player doesn't want it to happen then there's nothing Dickov can do.

exactly this! If Hull don't want to decide until next week, should Dickov say "f**k it, I'll get someone else in then"?

Dickov said he'd rather wait a wk till the right player becomes available than panic & fetch somebody in just for the sake of it. Fair play

Clown? Was that aimed at me?
I will repeat, when was Dickov appointed? How long have we needed a striker?
It's not something that has suddenly happened in the January transfer window, we've needed a striker all season

Dickov has signed two strikers since being here. Robinson, who is now injured, and Macheda who has returned to United. I would argue that it has become a priority in January.

Dickov had four strikers: Brown, Robinson, Macheda and Paynter. Whether you think they are good, bad or indifferent he had four strikers in his squad. Problem is they all got injured.

This,

Robinson got crocked, and Macheda wasn't the same after injury.  Please mrfrostsdad explain when Dickov should have replaced Robinson, who he signed in the first place?  The time is now, this window, and as ios widely reported he is trying to get one in.

Please explain what else you expect him to do?

Robinson cost £150,000 and has scored 5 goals in 18 league starts. Over a full season, that would be 13 goals, which is a decent return. Put it this way, only Billy Sharp and Paul Heffernan have had a better scoring rate for us in the Championship since we went up in 08.

I was delighted for Browny to get two goals today, as no one works harder for this team.  Shame his 2 at Charlton didn't count against his tally when that game was abandoned.
