You'd think we'd have some funds to bring in a half decent striker...perhaps that lad Kab Tishimanga from Boreham Wood
The fee we got for Harry Smith (plus freeing up his half decent wages) PLUS the bonus received from Goode getting promoted with Brentford PLUS now the alleged 20% sell on fee we get from the Matt Crooks deal today (20% has been quoted by Rotherham fans)
No excuses.
A failure to buy a decent proven striker will tell everyone the club is going nowhere.
In an ideal world they need a couple.
The only thing proven by our strikers last season (in the loose sense of the word) is that they showed they were nowhere near good enough and were out scored by a midfielder who didn’t play every game and has since also moved on to tranmere.
Given that we played last season with a pathetic forward line we actually did amazingly well to nearly stay up.
That same pathetic forward line is still here and we have now lost last seasons top scorer.
Dress it up how you like but we are desperately short of firepower and unless it’s addressed we could find ourselves doing well to retain league status.
Not scoring goals is a bad habit to get into and only ends up one way.
