    Because we are L2. We aint spunking our budget on 5th and 6th choice CBs when we already have 4 very decent ones.

    I agree. I can't see us signing another CB unless we got offered Van Dijk.

    That's Andy Cook on his way.

    Yes. Career looked poor up until last 2 years at Gills. 30 goals in 90 games at L1 level. Doesnt look too bad that.

    He loves Steve Evans and credits him with getting some more goals out of him.

    Quite possibly. Angol, Cook, Oliver, Harratt and Young will be hard to all keep happy.

    Also he won the second most aerial duals in league one last season behind Sam Vokes at Wycombe, so good in the air.

    Is Vadaine Oliver really any better than Andy Cook?

    He's just had 2 years in League 1. Cook never played above League 2,
    1 in 3 in League 1 for an unfashionable club is decent.

    Well he has just outscored him in the level above for a relegated team. Might be on less money too. Might not even be a direct replacement.

    Cook has played in Lg1 and scored 13 goals in a season. Oliver has never been prolific even in the conference , whereas Cook was/ is. Cook has 192 goals in 553 games (one in every 2.9). Oliver has 92 in 410 (one in every 4.5).
    I know who I prefer

    Apologies. Didn't realise he'd had the season in League 1.
    I'll trust MH to decide.

    Actually no. It was an amusing read, from my POV anyhow.

    Delighted, smug? Far from it.
