Aaron Collins given the "hook" after 45 minutes tonight in Forest Green's 1-4 home defeat to Carlisle.

Maybe Derek doesn't have any previous knowledge of him but it might be worth seeing if they will loan him out for the rest of the season.

Now that would be great. No guarantee, but.

FGR are falling like a stone and chucking money about to stop the rot. I predicted this is how Aaron's season would play out. He has an agent so no doubt he will start touting him about if he isn't getting any game time.

Would be ideal but doubt he's what DA feels we need up front.

I would expect any DA striker signing to be a 'power house' and over 6^ tall.... :o

Reading the thoughts of the FGR fans opinion seems to be divided on Aaron but many are calling for the manager's head. Maybe that will happen after we play them....in March :lol:

Wonder how many managers have been sacked after playing us.... ;)

Just been looking around at what other teams want before the transfer window closes and most want a striker. Well there's a surprise :roll: Going to be tough for us getting one.

Stevenage have signed on loan 20 year old striker David Parkhouse from Shef Utd who has been on loan with Derry City in the League of Ireland Premier Division and scored 19 goals in 39 games.

This could be the type of player we could have done with in our fight to retain our EFL status.

However with just under 36 hours to go before the window closes I'm hoping that DA can do some business, maybe in Scotland where his father has an extensive scouting network.

A lad called Mitch Megginson has scored 17 goals this season for Cove Rangers as an example of talent that to date has not been given a chance in the EFL.

:?: :?: :?:

I think that to date Derek has signed 6 players.

If we do bring in a striker do you think the team run out tune should be changed to the theme from "The Magnificent Seven".

Sounds like Wigan have another good crop of young strikers, although yesterday may not have been the best day to judge them! Callum Lang was a great success from them previously, so you never know?

Great! The news we have been waiting for. Welcome Harvey! Young, keen, a fresh face, new options, and from the MFC photo, looks like he's already been training with us. Against adversity, well done DA and the board! Onward and upward COYS!!!
