Having taken time to reflect on our current position, both on and off the pitch, I guess if the primary targets simply weren’t there, then Butterfield and Clarke are on paper decent signings. Butterfield is 100% a good addition IMO.Stop hovering to collapse... Click to collapse... Hover to expand... Click to expand...Utters0 and Craven Cottager like this. -

I'm sure Billy can potentially outscore Doyle in terms of goals from open play.
Hes got 4, and looked anything but clinical.
I'm not sure who I think the better finisher is at this point. I would have assumed Doyle, but then we've a boatload of evidence to say otherwise.
We'll see who scores more.Old city man and Onside like this. -

and his goal scoring record, i would wager, is comparative to any other attacking midfielder in the league.
it's alright going on about his lack of goals blah blah blah, but he's not a bloody striker. no ones kicking off about lewis o briens lack of goals, or david balls lack of goals. Clarke gets a decent amount in a season for the position he plays.Allotment Bantam and borderlescott like this. -
The lack of a big target man isn't crucial if we play our pass and move football.Sometimes, depending on who your playing,having the option to play it high is useful to hold the ball up or head to a runner but for me one aspect we miss out on is set plays.Corners,free kicks to the sides of the box etc,there's no real threat from headers.If we bring up O'Connor or NKP we risk getting hit on the break and conceding.
It's an important option we don't have and I'm disappointed we missed out on bringing someone in.Must sort it in the summer imo.Briggus and BoingBoing like this. -

He could have scored in the first half against millwall and we might be in the championship by now

My only concern is his fitness, the quality is there and as someone earlier pointed out, he wants to be here. As for him being 31! That's no age these days. He has only initially been given a contract till the end of the season, (quite clever that) so let's see how it goes.
It doesn't matter if one man gets the goals or they are shared out, as long as we survive. We'd all like a big free scoring target man but even if there was one out there, could we afford the transfer fee and wages? Would he want to join a league one side in the bottom four?
We need to be realistic and remember where we are at the moment. We also need to trust David Hopkin's judgement.Onside likes this. -
At this rate, expecting Jimmy Hanson to be the final announcement!
