Three Strikers

Stickingitin wrote: 12 Jan 2023, 17:49 You can only play so many strikers when they are match fit and the reason they are strikers is because they have a PROVEN goalscoring record, be it below or above our station.
That's the natural instinct! It's almost as though they are a different breed imo.
GJ always always always talks about competition for places yet we have one proven FORWARD in Jarvis and one unproven forward/striker in Crole, where's the competion for a natural striker?
As for your defender situation this thread is about three strikers.
Tony Lee is a NATURAL goal scoring STRIKER and there should be no qualms about bringing him into the squad as it may be just what he needs and the squad. Likening him to Mark is a put down on both players because they both have different stories, you should be ashamed of your words.
I don't know if you are Tony, his brother/mother/lover or some weird stalker but please give it a rest

Torquay v Halifax - 7th January 2023 - 3pm KO

Agree with this entirely

Three Strikers

Stickingitin wrote: 07 Jan 2023, 21:12 As I said, you can never write off a striker. Which is why the powers that be need to get their cheque book out, Andrews is only of no use when the funds are produced. Gaming International is a gambling operation worth billions from the suckers that gamble, hmm.
I'm confused. In the opening post you don't refer to Andrews at all, so surely you have either written him off or forgotten him?

At least those two scored while with us. In their time in the side they didn't look world beaters but equally both looked a lot more threatening than Andrews has.

Stickingitin wrote: 07 Jan 2023, 19:34 I wouldn't say forgotten just competition for places as GJ always says.
We have a plethora of midfielders and yet wofull in attacking strikers, Jarvis is a hold up man with goals occasionally and Goodwin was just getting started which is why Stoke recalled him.
We now have Crole who is, at this moment, far better than our missing striker because he is fit and has been playing regularly he also has youth on his side.
We only need one more goal per game!
I was referring to Andrews

Three Strikers

You are forgetting one of our marquee signings over the summer.... That said I am very confident he won't ever score for us and so probably should be forgotten

Maidstone Utd v Torquay Utd Sat 27 Aug 3pm

Must be a massive slope that is hidden well because as much as we dominated the first half they have bossed the 2nd from the restart.

Goal came from a shit kick from lovett, no defenders marking and a tidy finish. 2nd half has been woeful, I really can't stress how bad!!

Maidstone Utd v Torquay Utd Sat 27 Aug 3pm

Should be comfortably in front, both strikers have missed 2 presentable chances each and we have gone close at other times as well.

Still feels very disjointed, midfield unstructured and MacGavin not in the game.

Nothing sticking upfront and Andrews looks leggy, Omar still scares me every time he has the ball and sub keeper has already slipped twice on the astroturf.

Teams intent on a top 7 finish will win here

MOTM - Woking

Little - quality all round display
Lewis - given a hard time by Offiong but stuck to his task well
Wright - I thought he led the line well and brought the midfield into the game
Martin - a maturing performance

29 May 2021. Who will be Top of the National League?

Not quite as Sutton can still get to 87pts. We need to win every game to be assured of the title, even 1 draw will take it out of our hands

Legends of the Buckle Era

I went to buy a ticket shortly before the start as I wasn't sure if I would be back from work in time and it said there were no more for sale - is it sold out or can I still buy one?
