Very fair point ginny, but bogle and podge have struck up an understanding with each other and personally not sure giving podge a new partner up top would be the wisest thing-  of course it did work last year with Palmer and LJL. But for me, i wouldnt want us to sign a striker who at this stage of the season more than likely isnt going to match fit or ready to join a side going for promotion and split up a front 2 who for me work well together

For all the hype when he signed, I've been very disappointed with Omar and listening to RH tonight and his attitude, even more so. Now his goal return has dried up, he's turned into a low grade Lennie, I shudder to think how many Podge would have scored off a decent target man.

An 'if it aint broke don't fix it' attitude is all well and good but to be the best, you have to be ruthless and keep improving. An experienced target man would soon form an understanding with Podge i think and give us something different.

JPP is not our best striker, Podge is.

This:- with bells on. A bizarre statement Mr Hagrid...

Have to agree, Amond is easily our best striker imo, he's probably the best striker we've had in years, a natural goal scorer.


Grimsby and proud!

A fully fit JPP is a great player but I just don't think he has a full schedule in him. As an impact player who does 30mins here and the odd 60mims I believe you would get more from him and minimise the risk of his glass legs breaking.

Bogle has stopped scoring but I think we can put a lot of Podges goals down to Bogles work. I honestly believe Podge would be on less goals now if he wasn't up top with him.

I completely agree pontoonlew. Bogles seems to draw defenders to him opening up space for podge
