Ian Wallace, Dion Dublin, or Clarrie Boughton: we need a goalscorer! Frankly, we don't have to even go back through the ages: if we just had King still, we wouldn't be in this mess.

Mick Ferguson, to do what he did back in '84

Terry Yorath for me - he played 99 games for CCFC between 1976-1979.
This guy took no prisoners in centre mid breaking up attacks, taking players out and creating chances for us - opposition players were genuinely scared shitless when he was on the park.
Centre mids of Yorath and Wisey playing together at their peaks, now that would ruffle a few feathers !!!

Dennis Wise. It was amazing how much better he made the rest of them play too.

Goes without saying that. In the first 6 games alone all we needed was someone to bag our chances.

Clarrie Bourton wouldn't be a bad call-who better to boost a flailing attack than the record scorer?

is that a good thing in the run in for us? platt/nimely arent scoring lots but are a nice lil partnership
millwall-henderson 1 man team,can he keep it up?
forest-blackstock-great player
portsmouth-kitson,does he score anymore?
doncaster-no more billy sharpe upfront,weaker
bristol city-no maynard anymore,stead is good but not always prolific
i dunno,i think playy/nimely gives a better chance than platt/juke would have

John Hartson for me too, bullies defenders, scores and creates goals.

For those who say Hartson - he didn't!
Had we not p*ssed about and got him in sooner then I think we would have survived and who knows where we might be now. Would have kept him, Hadji and B*llamy and the Sheikh looking for a team in Sky Blue may have selected us instead as ManCity were 2nd or 3rd tier at the time.
Alex Nimley anyone? Hopefully!

Dublin, led from the front. Anybody that says Hartson really should say Dublin as Hartson was the only time we truly replaced Dion.
Wise is also a good shout, as he dictated games.

Can't believe anyone hasn't mentioned Micky Quinn.......... Now he was a goalscorer.....

Roland Nillson for me,
We lack leadership on the pitch, and I think he would work wonders with our young but talented back four,
I know it might be controversial but I dont think we would concede so many late goals with an old head at the back..
Either that or Dubs, for goals and the aforementioned steady head at the back.

Mick Quinn would have to come with Robert Rossario.
1992-3 17 goals. 10 goals in his first 6 games. Rossario was sold to Forest at the end of Feb, then his goals dried up, he only scored 3 until the end of the season, one being a pen. apps (Lge = 26, Cup = 1)
1993-4 9 goals (including 1 hat trick v Arsenal) apps - (Lge = 28 (4 sub) Cup = 1(2 sub))
1994-5 0 goals only 3 Lge apps.

Hartson. We need someone to give the lads a good kick in the face in training!

To be honest there have been loads over the years that could turn us round. What we need is leadership. Gary McAllister?
Wise is a great shout too!

Agreed and add Maurice Setters and nothing would get in the 18 yard box
