A joke.?Give me strength.!!A challenge yes and a disappointment to lose the manager and Marquis how we did, and to be a bit behind the drag curve..But a joke.??
Yes we do. Sadlier will stillscore goals playing behind the striker
I am happy for Sadlier to play up top

There was nothing to be done about JM going. He wanted to leave and that’s that

There was nothing to be done about JM going. He wanted to leave and that’s that But we haven't been proactive and sort his replacement before he left. I said on the night after the Charlton game drinking beers around London bridge that marquis would leave just before the season starts and we would be left napping. And I've been proved right. We are never proactive in the transfer market. It's not good enough, we need to be clever about our business during the early stages of the transfer windowHow do you know we weren’t proactive? I’m sure Rovers would have had possible replacements in mind, however all of our preseason preparations went up in smoke when GM left! Literally all of the work done for this season had to be done again, including identifying replacements for JM. DM has had a month and as your aware he’s got strikers that he wants, but these things do take time, particularly if we’re buying championship players.
I was there today. And we came up against a very ordinary team. We look miles and miles away from a team that can challenge for promotion. We just about hung in there against painfully mediocre opposition. This isn’t a criticism of DM, he has inherited the aftermath of a shambolic summer.
Do we need this big striker signing? Why not save the money and give Sailder the first half of the season to prove himself up top.

Get a big guy along side job done ✅

It’s just not dropping for us! By far the better team and may who I admit to saying should be dropped looks a totally different player for us under Moore. My mom

I never said Sadlier should be up top on his own - I have said repeatedly we need a no 9. Sadlier can play up top WITH a no 9..

On the first 2 games I think we definitely need a play maker and a couple of strikers

Short yes, but hardly embarrassing.I understand your concerns but that’s going too far I think..One or two, your having a laugh. We are five a six quality signings from being anywhere near good enough to challenge for the top sixThat’s utter b*llocks Let's just clarify Herbie Lad, you honestly believe we will be challenging for promotion with only two more signings??Happy to clarify for you Johnny - I’d say we need 3; a CB, a midfielder and a striker.

We have 9 players who can play CB. It's not desperate. AndersonWrightJohn (The)BaptisteSheafBlaneyMcLeanAmosHorton
So we've got people who want the club to produce young assets that can be sold but don't ever want to give kids a try.

You want a CB, hopefully only because of the Baptiste injury? We’ve signed Cameron John who i’d like to think is good enough, why would we sign him if not? We need a Left back to push James (it’s never good to have a player who knows he’s guaranteed a start every week), a CM for cover and 2 strikers. Preferably a big man (i’d take murphy) and someone of proven quality. If we can’t manage that the club need to lower there expectations to stop leading on the less intelligent of us, as no doubt they’ll be an head ache for the rest of the season.

The result covered up so many deficiencies. Sadlier should play behind a striker, but we don’t have one. I wasn't there today but was at the Gillingham game. I thought the second half performance vs Gills was encouraging and I think Sailder has the physique to play up top.The team will take time to gel, i think it's worth giving him the first half of the season. Trust me, today’s result hid so many inadequacies, most of which stem from the absence of anyone up front. Sadlier works hard there but it’s not his game. I look forward to seeing him playing in his best position and picking up the ball facing goal. Without a proper striker we look miles off a promotion challenging team. It’s embarrassing to even talk of promotion after our performance in the transfer market so far.
