Kitchandro Posted 21 December 2012 Share Posted 21 December 2012 It won't be Austin, we've got no chance. Wood is more likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKCJ Posted 21 December 2012 Share Posted 21 December 2012 Me thinks Wood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buggsteam Posted 21 December 2012 Share Posted 21 December 2012 I can't see us getting Austin, all tho Brighton are rumoured to be putting in a 4 mill bid for him, but I can't see Burnley selling there inform player in jan unless it's for stupid money. Wood has got four clubs intrested. Millwall where he's at and knows the players, Forest, Brighton and us. Would be a good signing as long as we don't turn hoof ball. Kenwyne Jones, used to be a quality player but don't he alot about him these days. Know he scored the weekend after a lengthy spell out injured at which he's had a few recently. Can't see it happening and think he will go abroad. Would like to see someone like Machenda from Man U who's not getting a look in on loan or a cheeky bid for Lambert.

The Year Of The Fox Posted 21 December 2012 Author Share Posted 21 December 2012 Dont know enough about players from other teams but clearly austin is better, surely worth a silly bid? Certainly over jones, not sure about wood Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxile5 Posted 21 December 2012 Share Posted 21 December 2012 Problem is with Jan is that it's a sellers market. To get a halfway decent striker we're going to have to shell some. Woodn't (get it? mind getting Wood in, at a million he seems like a decent buy. Him or Jones would offer the second option that we're so desperately in need of.

Dan LCFC Posted 21 December 2012 Share Posted 21 December 2012 I wouldn't bother with Austin. Has he even scored yet under Dyche? He's not even the leagues highest scorer anymore. You'd be paying £5mil+, that's the last thing the club needs. If Chris Wood is going for a million, get him in. He ticks every box of what we lack going forward.

Miquel The Work Geordie Posted 21 December 2012 Share Posted 21 December 2012 Would like to see someone like Machenda from Man U who's not getting a look in on loan or a cheeky bid for Lambert. I live with a lad from Salford who's a huge Yanited fan who says he'll drive Macheda down himself if he signs for us. Not very good mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leicester_Numan Posted 21 December 2012 Share Posted 21 December 2012 I still say it's worth a cheeky bid for Sharp & Lambert. Neither are going to get a look in at Southampton and if Forest go for Wood it'll be to play alongside Cox when he's fit again, leaving Sharp on the bench. Both are the kind of striker we need and either of them may well jump at the chance of a move Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonthefox Posted 21 December 2012 Share Posted 21 December 2012 I know it was in the daft days, but if we can pay £5 million for mills, surely we could offer the same for Austin?. I do however think he's premiership bound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do however think he's premiership bound. Players I can remember we've paid £5m for: Mills Akinbiyi It's begun a trend of paying too much for players who never deliver. I'd rather pay £1m for Chris Wood than an extortionate £5m for Charlie Austin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonthefox Posted 21 December 2012 Share Posted 21 December 2012 Ever heard of financial fair play? I thought as we were part of the King power group now it was going to make us appear better off?. Like stansp said though...too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicester_Numan Posted 21 December 2012 Share Posted 21 December 2012 Ever heard of financial fair play? Maybe Foxblogger will let us know the details but I distinctly remember him saying something about being able to offset a large one off transfer fee like that but generally FFP is going to control who we actually go for. It would of course help if we can offload Beckford & Danns, maybe Gallagher as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Flair Posted 21 December 2012 Share Posted 21 December 2012 I still say it's worth a cheeky bid for Sharp & Lambert.

Prat He's also getting old, they're trying to survive and you can bet your life they'll be in for strikers in January. I think he's going to find himself on the bench.
