    But we definitely are in the market for a striker.

    I'm not saying it's Grigg or anyone else but we are looking and I think a fee would be payed for the right player.

    If there is interest in Tony Watt and his wages can be mostly shifted I could see someone coming in for money. Roland does spend but mostly it's been unwisely.

    If the right player isn't available then we can surely expect a Prem loan at the end of the month.

    Whether he's still any good i don't know , but at least if we did sign Will Grigg he's already got his own song!

    Will Grigg I heard this morning from a sauce I cannot reveal.

    As you've said it came from a sauce you cannot reveal, i will take it with a pinch of salt and maybe pepper you with a pun or two....
    Thought I'd come back and Ketchup on this thread... I have heard the player we're getting is from Olympic Mayonnaise, another bloody foreign player, though I have heard he is mustard.

    Literally just received a text from a mate saying he has heard we have enquired about a Wigan player. But its not Grigg, its Ryan Colclough. I have never heard of him to be honest so no idea who he is.

    Winger who was on loan at MK last year.

    Winger, was on loan at MK last season under Robinson first half of the season, 22

    Of course he was.

    Correct. He was born in Chile and as part of that loves to Salsa.

    We will not be signing a striker that isn't good enough to play in The Championship, so that rules out Grigg & Matty Taylor at Bristol C (ex-Bristol R). The logic being, when we're promoted we'd have to sell them, so we would pay a million, then need to get rid. Source Katrien Meire.

    Therefore, I suggest we will get in a Premiership loan and or loan the lad from Middsbro (Bury until recently).

    I doubt even if Konsa was sold the logic would change.

    I think only Reeves and possibly Fosu given his age could play in the champ. Da Silva obviously but he is on loan, as is Amos. Marshall is 30 now, Clarke nearly 30 and probably a League 1 player.

    I don't think we need a million pound player, just an improvement on what we have. I think if Bogle stays at Wigan, there might even be the possiblity of Grigg coming in on loan. Akinde has been mentioned, I have my doubts that he could do it in League 1 to be honest, but at least he could play up top on his own.

    I think signing like someone on loan like Miller just to have another option would be a mistake.

    Talking of strikers - what's the general feeling on Magennis ? Do people believe the "slight knock" reason for him being left out on Saturday?

    I gather it's getting sticky because we're trying to buy him on HP

    Yes, because everyone saw him get injured against Ipswich.

    sorry I was replying to the comments made by Covered End about not signing players capable of playing in the championship.

    We need to make sure we have what we need for this season first and foremost.

    That's left me in the brown stuff as I can't think any others up.

    We only want a striker who can play in the Championship so no to Matty Taylor? On that logic we would not have bought in Yann who had been booted out of Leicester.

    Matt Godden for £1.5m according to evening standard.

    I know nothing about him, anyone know how Stevenage played last year to know if he would fit into our system?

    I really cannot see us paying upwards of 1mil for a player, unless Konsa is going. Even then I doubt it.

    That link says 15m - I nearly had a heart attack then.
