Any 20 something strikers with years of proven experience in this league available on a free for similar wages?
I here you, but at 31 he's not going to get any better, spend the money on someone younger. ☺
He's OK, not exactly 'marquee', but what are people expecting?

Better than...Ronaldo?
He's 35
Too old
That’s probably the average wage difference between championship players and non league players - so about right reallyHe’s probably on 10 times what Biamou was on too
How many games did Godden play fully fit and to repeat myself we don’t play with a target man do you agree or not ?
To be fair, the model thing is relevant. Throughout Robins tenure we've always coupled developmental signings with experienced players. There is a model they look to work towards (as with most clubs) but that model very much includes these types of players too.
Negligible or waste of time effort and moneyHe played 23 games - fully fit I don't know? But you could ask that question about a lot of players (Max Biamou for instance).
Waghorne scored 5 in about 32. The bottom line is it is 6 goals v 5 across the season, so a negligable difference when it comes to goal contribution.
Hope Shippers is given another chance possibly playing on the right like near the seasons end, cutting in on his left foot. Allen I would love to come good but he looked well off the pace last season. A league 1 club will snap him up if available. Think we will struggle to move the other 3 on. Hilssner maybe we need one more look if his breathing problem is resolved.It is like the assumption Shipley and Allen will be bombed out? No they were squad contributers. Cheap fillers who you could spend a lot more on replacements for the same ability.
The ones who we will try and off load are Kastener, Jobello and probably Hillsner.
It is about mixing and matching. Like Marosi being shifted out and Wilson staying? Marosi probably shaded it on ability but I suspect we have freed up a wage 3x on the person staying?
Don't expect to see Shippers featuring as much as last seasonHope Shippers is given another chance possibly playing on the right like near the seasons end, cutting in on his left foot.

Think he'll be moved out? On loan or permanent.Don't expect to see Shippers featuring as much as last season
Really don't know but don't think he's high up in our plansThink he'll be moved out? On loan or permanent.
LoanThink he'll be moved out? On loan or permanent.
i like shippers but he was lazy last season unfortunately
In certain games above his level for sure.Tbf weren't necessarily lazy, the games just sort of passed him by, nowhere near championship quality, time will tell though.

He might have 90 minutes in him with our new first team coach influenceHe has a goal in him but he doesn't have 90 minutes in him. Makes it difficult for any manager.

Disagree that Shipley doesn't have ability. He has as good a left foot as you'll find in the Championship
Disagree that Shipley doesn't have ability. He has as good a left foot as you'll find in the Championship, but unfortunately last season that wasn't enough to compensate for a lack of fitness, strength and confidence, which apart from a couple of instances led to him having a very disappointing season. Next season looks like a make or break one for him, where he really needs to address those weaknesses or he will be on his way out.

Is he looking after himself properly?I just don't think he's a natural 'elite' athlete and tires quickly. Possibly some of it linked to asthma and have no idea about how he approaches his fitness in general so I assume that's fine. Can't imagine MR would have much time for him at all if he didn't take it seriously, esp given his ability deficit at this level.
Does he like a beer and a curry?Is he looking after himself properly?
Ridiculous
