Just a message to those fans who think our defence is old and slow - played 14 and only conceded 9 goals and that includes playing against Andy bishop,grant holt,pawel abbott and Adam le fondre to name just a few - not a bad effort at all in my opinion

Our defence is slow but they make up for it with their reading of the game and strength. If we're against a top quality pacey striker we'd struggle but we'd also struggle against a strong target man if we had a pacey defence without the strength. I think we need a young centre back with pace who can learn from Jimbo, Artell and Adams. Perhaps keep an eye on players from Prem/Championship clubs being released.

I agree callum pace is always a danger but there are more goals scored in this league from corners,set pieces and crosses take the luton and barnet games at home for example

Well said Howe Magic,not a lot of credit goes to our defence,the problem this season has been scoring goals,hence all the draws.Hopefully we may get a striker that can score a few next season,how about Fleetwood banging them in for Exeter?

Personally i would go for a striker with experience possibly someone like gareth Taylor who is with carlisle or proudlock who is at grimsby
