Looking at the average cobblers fan I think it's fat adults that are society's problem.
The problem is that people are told by the anti-body shamer group that it is OK to be fat. It's not, it is bad for your health, it is bad for the NHS that has to cope with diseases driven by poor lifestyle choices and most of all it's bad for any of us who get to their seat at Sixfields and there is some lard árse who is taking up half your seat. |

With the emphasis now seemingly on defensive signings , I can’t wait to see who our proven goalscorer signing will be because I’m damn sure we haven’t got one in the squad at the moment.
My big concern too. |

With 6 strikers already at the club we really need to offload a couple if we are to bring anyone else in. |

I thought he was very good at getting stuck in and winning the ball, unfortunately once he'd got it he immediately gave it back again!

And if we don’t I’m sure we can agree we’re up against it One of the lowest if not lowest goal scoring clubs in the league last year and so far we’ve bought in a target man who may notch ten a season. Goals win games and we need a proper striker. |

Graham Carr said we needed to sign 'two centre forwards this summer': https://www.northamptonchron.co.uk/sport/football/carr-believes-cobblers-must-target-two-centre-forwards-this-summer-3245358So far we've signed Kabamba. Time will tell whether he fits Carr's definition of a centre forward. If the much-vaunted new recruitment system is worth it's salt and if we want to genuinely challenge next year then we need to sign a proper centre forward. Our major issue last year was scoring goals as Brady knows. I'm actually a bit confused by Brady's talk of all the emphasis being on defensive signings because I would have thought that the first choice back 5 was already in place: Roberts, Mills, Horsfall, Guthrie, Harriman. Surely we just need back up now in those areas? (Although I suppose he might want a more attack-minded rb than Harriman.) |

If not what type of centre forward do you think best suits us. Given the apparent use of wingers I think someone with a bit of arial strength? |

The Stonner Kebab has a measly 3000 calories when combined with a large portion of chips.
Wash it down with a small bottle of Buckie and you add another 1000 calories, so that’s 4000 calories, not bad for a working lunch.

Whether it’s back ups, competition, or improvements we clearly need defenders as at present we have 4 players for 4 positions, while in attack if you include Chuks we have 6 for 2 positions. As I’ve said before I’d like to see us get shot of at least 2 attackers which would allow us to bring another in. |

Agreed. I don't think any of the strikers we currently have in the squad is really capable of winning balls in the air or proving aerial lay offs. |

I think Rose can do this when the ball isn't too far away from him due to his leap; although his pace lets him down so he struggles to get on the end of a lot of balls. Smith can to an extent but his positioning is often poor and is rarely in the right place to receive the ball, even though he is tall, strong and reasonably quick. I think by contrast Oliver was fantastic at being in the right position to receive clearances and this greatly complimented his obvious pace, height and strength. Hopefully Kabamba can do this job for us? He certainly seems to have the raw physical attributes needed so it will depend on his ability to anticipate where a long ball is going to be played to, and to time his runs. |
