Decisions?

Decisions?

What style of striker do u think is needed? Obviously one that puts the ball in the net but are you thinking of a Hugill type or a Maguire type? With what we have now DJ, Harrop, Gally, Maguire, Barky, Browne can all find the net. I do worry about signing a striker and not having him fit into our system and it being counter productive (eg playing Stockley or Maguire as lone strikers I don't believe will work). Hugill is one that would have worked. Moult and Barky work. Doubt Nugent will have the legs for a lone striker role.

We need another striker like Maguire. If he gets injured we are finished and although we have quality in midfield who can all contribute, we can't rely on them all the time.

By another striker like Maguire, do you mean a left winger?
 
Having supported North End forever 54 years next month and the excitement, promise, etc that they have shown, I am not getting carried away yet. Yes it has been a very good start to this season so far, we have ground out 3 points when in previous seasons we might have gained just a point. However, there is still a very, very long way to go and like in most of our games so far this season it has been a game of two halves I just hope it isn’t a season of two halves.

As for me, I’ll start to get excited after about 30 games if we are still doing very well and are in a top 6 place 10 points clear of 7th spot and even more exited if we are in a top two place about 5 points clear of 3rd place.

I just hope we continue with how we are doing starting with a decent result tomorrow and a good win on Saturday and to top it all TH lets us sign the players we want to strengthen the squad in the next window.

Excellent post, agree with all, but leaves me feeling depressed.
Only because I first attended Deepdale in 1965, and am wondering where the bloody hell has all that time gone? ?
