would be a waste of wages but i doubt we will find better so we are probably screwed either way

I wouldn't pay a fee for him, if we can get for free I'd do it.

On 5 k per week at Sheff Weds. Pressley has no money to spare....

Agree Nouble up top with a pacey forward would be better than Madine. IF and when we get promoted he would be miles off the pace. Also the lad has baggage and I dont want that to blow up at CCFC.

Do you REALLY think anyone in our current team will still be here "if and when we get promoted"? More likely it will be the children of the current players.

Madine was bloody awful today and I know he is isolated but he didn't even look interested today and I'm not joking. When you don't look interested it is no surprise he missed the pen and that really annoys me. I knew he would miss before he took it. He was crap and has been crap.
Stay well away.
Stay well away.

Madine is comfortably good enough. It must be so frustrating for all the strikers who have played this season. Have we honestly played well once??? We dont create anything like enough chances and generally the strikers have fed off scraps. Our midfield is dreadful and I desperately hope we can do something to rectify that this week.

Fair point, he's getting shit service and he's said he prefers playing with a partner up front. So in all in all he's not really got much chance has he.

Would not be bothered if do not keep him - if he takes a massive drop in wage and we get him for free transfer then maybe!

Would beg the question why he wanted to stay then.

As depressing a thought as it is I suspect the only reason any of our players are here is a lack of a better option.

I think he holds up the ball superbly and would be a decent acquisition at this level.
Those who ask "what does he do?" I'd be intrigued to know if they go to games or are merely judging him on his goals to games ratio. Although saying that, he wasn't that good today.
Seems we were spoilt with Clarke and Wilson and now expect all our strikers to be 20 goal a season men. Tougher to find than people think.

Because you don't agree or because I haven't explained well? What I mean is that whenever I leave a job for a new one, I always say that I've had a great time, wonderful team, sad to leave etc. even if I have hated it - to say anything else would be unpleasant and add no value.

EDIT - Callum Wilson was one of only 2 "20 goals in a season" CCFC strikers since 1977 (the other was Dion Dublin in 1997)
Hardly "spoilt". There are times in the past 10 years when our top scorer hasnt even reached double figures

I merely meant within this glorious League One era ccfcway. McGoldrick would've got 20 if he stayed in the first season and Leon Clarke would've got 20 if he had been here all season.
My point being, we seem to expect a 20 goal a season striker in this league, I don't think they're as easy to find as the simplicity of that statement.

I see your point, but i dont expect a 20 goal a season striker. I'd be happy with 2 strikers who get near or topple double figures, supported by midfielders chipping in with a few and defenders scoring one of two from set pieces.
Our top scorer (on 5 goals) as we approach Feb is between a striker we have send back and a defender who is injured 1/2 of the time

As would I but today was a fine example of our strikers (or striker) not really getting any service. Our style of play is very different from the sides scoring for fun with Baker, Moussa, Wilson and Clarke (and that's not to take anything away from those players).
I'd like to see us give Madine some actual service then judge him.
Im not saying he's the next messiah and the jury is definitely still out on him for me, just offering an alternative view on "he's shit".

Eoin Doyle and Andy Williams look set to break 20 goals this season in L1 with another 4 players on 12/13 so may do. Last season 4 players in the league broke 20 goals in a season so not as hard as you might think. Would just take a good manager/scout to find them because they are out there.
