free agent strikers

[Draytonian III]

Connor Wickham is unfortunately very injury prone that is why he’s a free agent

[RoversAlias]

Josh Parker been released by Burton. Doesn’t score lots of goals but at least he is a striker and will put him self about a bit. He gave butler a hard time when we played Charlton in the play offs. Could do a job for us until Jan

Josh Parker is not what we need. He is not a very good centre forward, he doesn't score many goals and he isn't a line leader. If we're shopping for players of that calibre we may as well not bother.

[Petche]

Easily said with hindsight I know but we should have been looking at the top tier of non-league for a striker.
Kabongo Tshimanga to name one - highly rated and was a free agent in the summer. Now signed for Chesterfield. Surprised no league 1 or 2 side took a chance.

Rakish Bingham or Kwame Thomas for me.

Please don't. Not even in jest

Are they that much worse than Bogle and Cukur? I’m not sure

[Arsenal Of The North]

It’s pointless just chucking endless names around, if they don’t make willing runs we may as well just stick with bogle and limp to the end of the season, we can all rush to panic buy but if it’s the wrong person we are in no better situation and lumbered with them for likely 2 years.

I think we take stock, hope fej is back sooner rather than later and make sure this talent identification bloke is doing his job for the next 4 months to have a player signed up and ready to go from day one of the winter transfer window

[Barmby Rover]

Who's cheapest? As they say in Yorkshire (according to Plusnet), "That'll do!"

We should be pushing a youth team striker into the mix as we could do no worse than give one of them a shot to break through. I don’t know who plays for the youth team but it’s got to be worth a punt.!

What and destroy him in the first year as a pro
And relegate us to LG 2 great idea , as we stand if we don’t get a decent striker in from out of contract market , even for 4 months to put us on we will go down

[Chris Black come back]

Liam Hoden saying no interest in David Nugent.

the problem you have with that is there usually not physically ready, look at cakur 6ft 2 and has barley won a header, if he was in the youth set up he would find it far easier

If he was anywhere near ready for the 1st team he'd be playing league games

We only ever play 1 striker so it's hard up top for them on their own

[keith79]

Can we sign players on a youth loan? I'm almost 100% sod did in the past.

Hope your right

Players used to be able to join on monthly loans outside the window before that was stopped about 4-5 seasons ago.

hal robson-kanu
connor wickham
nicky ajose
andy carroll

i dont know if any of these are still without a club but there are a few on the transfer market website.

Connor Wickham an unbelievable player, will surely get a Championship club, Andy Carroll talking to Reading, you do wonder whether he’s a young man f%#€Ed! The other 2 who knows.

and Kanu is with WBA.  And Adjose is with Exeter

Robson Kanu is a free agent

[Retdon1]

Not saying these are right for us but a few strikers that were released by Scottish prem clubs

Greg Stewart 31 - ex rangers, Aberdeen and Birmingham

Collin Quaner - ex Huddesfield, St Mirren, Union Berlin

Guy Melamed- ex St Johnston and few clubs in Israel

Sunderland pay off Aiden O’Brien to the value of the excess of our loan agreement to make him a free agent, rovers sign him for the same wages  value of loan agreement, would love that to happen.

What’s Victor Anichebe up to?

[sedwardsdrfc]

They have to be a free agent by the end of the transfer window to be eligible to sign. So if the contract was cancelled on deadline day we could sign. Only option now is to sign players who were without a club when the window closed.

Maxime Biamou?… WAP?

The same reason after reading your reply I don't understand, it seems it got explained and answered properly afterwards. Now I understand, I thought you could still do it that's all.

Thanks for explaining, I still thought they could

That’s the spirit, let’s stay positive!

[normal rules]

Jerome Sinclair?
Kieran agard?

[firestarter]

Sinclairs strike rate is awful and Agard has barely played for the last year so I’d give them a wide berth personally
