I doubt it is Jamma after all, seeing as he was in action for FGR against Cardiff City and scored their equaliser! Kinda gutted as he looks like a real baller!

That was just someone with a bit too much time on their hands putting a post on twitter

I have enough faith in the board by now that we won’t be starting the season with Luke James as one of our main attacking options; we’ll get a Quigley replacement at some point

Are we sure about this - Was Zanzala not the Quigley replacement? In the same way that we brought a new keeper in before Joel left.
The board have known for some time that Quigley wanted away.

If Mark Cooper thinks we need another striker I don't think for a second the board will stand in his way. He will also have enough contacts to make it happen.
Don't let the old man in.

Why was he bothering trialling a striker yesterday then?

Re read what I wrote again and have a proper look at your top 10 then 3 usual ticks boxes apply too most.
You were arguing that spending big is more a guarantee of goals - it's not. The freebies are usually (almost always at this level) just as good, you just need a manager that knows what they're doing with them.
Funny you say that how many off the top 10 strikers have now been bought or going too be bought mendes gomes , mullen , quigley ….
All opinions expressed are my own , not here to cause kick off just enact debate.

we need another striker, Zanzala is still not as consistent as Quigs, James offers nothing and Gordon still finding his way after injuries so anyone who's happy with that scenario, don't moan if we're struggling again !

Luke James always gives 100% when he’s on the pitch. He was Barrows best player in a few matches last season.
Unfortunately he doesn’t score enough goals which isn’t great for a forward.
Did Cooper show him the back door at Forest Green?

We could probably knock up a golf stand as a short term measure alongside the main stand. Not ideal but it would serve the purpose temporarily. Blackpool had one for 3 or 4 years when Bloomfield Rd was being rebuilt in the 2000s

So what you're actually saying is that signing a free agent can also be a good investment? Glad you finally agree.

Spot on 'blue nige'.
It'd be such a tragedy if we struggle again, on the back of all those season tickets sold, for want of a proven goalscorer.
