Today? Or in general?

Iāll quote you tomorrow.
Just nervous that there seems to be no urgency coming out of Home Park, again.

How on earth do you come to that conclusion?
What would you class as urgency coming from Home park out of interest?

Iām not so sure. Yes now looking back it certainly seems like it could have been a panic buy but Weāve all got a degree in hindsight.
It was only after 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th and probably some other targets became unavailable for whatever reason.
It was then a āatleast get somebody inā because we were pretty light upfront.
He wasnāt doing anything at Celtic, didnāt fit in with our formation, didnāt fit in with our effort standards and didnāt do what heās paid to do, score.
Yeah true. Hopefully Adams has learned from this and brings in a striker that does fit in with style of play and formation. We need 3 good signings in this window as a minimum.
Ade the green":3h0779p9 said:I believe that there has been an urgent need for another striker that can play a lone striker role or someone that can compliment our forward line. As such, I would have hoped that our targets had been found before the window open and the trigger pulled to get them on board soon after. As yet, nothing.
I also have a worry that with Adams being strict with his 1 target man only style that any possible recruits wonāt join us to sit on the bench.
I am further worried that should anything happen to Taylor after the window closes and no striker recruited then we will have no strike force at all with Ciftci gone (no loss) but Blissett does suit Adams style to a point or Blissett and Fletcher could play together which would mean Adams changing his style (which he wonāt).
There, do you want to carry on your interrogation or can you accept that iām still not convinced.

Let's also hope that the example of Toumani has sunk in at higher levels of the club and that Adams will be able to sign better than his 5th choice striker in this window.

In the words of Graham Taylor in an infamous exchange...
'You worry Ade, you worry. But don't make the f****king REST of us worry!'
'Go and worry on your own!'
