[January Transfers and Rumours]

Flitcroft has had 4 transfer windows, since we have been promoted, to bring in strikers. He has failed. If we are being priced out of the forward market, why is it that other comparable league 1 clubs  (Burton, Shrewsbury, Lincoln, Cambridge, Carlisle) can sign them?  
 

We have had obvious issues for the last 2 seasons, yet in the summer the solution taken by the club was to release and then re-sign Wilson and to sell Ellis, who in my opinion wasn’t up to much anyway but he would have still have been a better option than Loft or Uche who are desperation signings. 
 

We either have a director of football who is incompetent or we simply cannot compete financially at this level and inevitably whether it be this season or the next we will be back in League 2. The dream of the Championship has never looked so far away. 

[James Antony Wilson.]

Surely we can’t afford to lose him. He is a goal threat, something which none of our other strikers are. A James Wilson who only plays a limited amount of games a season would still score more goals than Uche and Loft would accumulate together if they played in every game. Uche and Loft don’t seem to have that anticipation to be in the right place at the right time to meet a cross or like yesterday tap the ball in from a goalkeepers save. 
 

in all honesty who are we likely to get who is better than Wilson? I get the impression strikers are in short supply across the football league and it isn’t just a problem that we are facing. 

The point he got us yesterday may be the difference come the end of the season. Maybe instead of looking at how many games Wilson plays over the course of the season, the emphasis should be on how many points does he get us. Sadly I m not sure how many points Uche and Loft will get us.
