I know Gary King has left Stamford but please God, no!!  :o

Don't worry he's not coming your way, he's with us!

So far he's played one county cup game (scored twice) and made two substitute appearances in the league. Surprisingly he has not been booked or sent off yet!!  :o  He was serving a three match ban when he joined us though!  ;)

Worst player to ever don the Amber in my eyes.  Never seen someone look so out of their depth and dis-interested.  Does he still wear those lovely red boots?
So many people have come and gone, their faces fade as the years go by.
Yet I still recall as I wander on, as clear as the sun in the summer sky.

LBC, thats a bold statement given Mickey Stones started up front for us this season..........I wonder if those who made a case for him then are quite so 'on message' now?

FWIW I think he's right up there with the shockers like Willie Gamble, Gabrielli, Gary Porter, McSporran and the entire squad of 2008/09.

 ;D Gabrielli!

Ah but in Stones case, there is effort and an amount of threat to the opposition.  Anyone that made the trip to Whitby will know that if we'd given Ryan and King all week to practise their one on ones, they still would never have come away with a goal.

Come on guys you are hardly filling me with confidence that King can do a good job for us here!

LCB, I'm not 100% certain but I think King has been wearing white boots for us, i'll check the next time he plays (he's cup-tied on Saturday).

I  think the answer to the question is ' we need A striker '.

I think the answer to the question is no. We need 2.

Jason, at his age, can't carry the front line for the whole season and we need someone quick who can put it in the net as I'm not convinced about Fairclough, Burrow or the Newsh (at this level).

Does Ricky Miller play in the UCL?  Given his nomadic career and our managers liking for bringing ex-players back to the club it wouldn't be that surprising if he came back would it?

He's the type of striker we need as from what I remember from his last spell he had pace, a good work rate and knew where the goal was,

Why did he leave?

Because the clever little Steve Evans thought he was a bit better than he actually was and he asked for pretty unreasonable terms.......
