Alas, I don't think we'll see Toby again - shame we can only speculate rather than have it confirmed.

If that's the case then surely we've got enough in the kitty to get a really decent number nine in now?

With any quality number 9, wages will be the stumbling point.

Hi SW.  I saw Dave Furnival play!  Wasn’t he a Les Rigby signing?

I can’t remember USA it was a long time ago. I felt it was before Rigby but I’ve never been good at matching time and events past. He was terrible though no doubt about that.

Well, back to the Conferencing days of old - 11 big lads, keeper being bullied inside his own six yard box, and we didn't really lay a glove on them with some ponderous football and a lack of willingness to take risks.

Everything felt a bit flat today. Reinforcements needed.

In what way were you 'lambasted'?

Dinanga had one of his better games today. I wish I could say that for a couple of others. Once again we conceded two goals from set pieces - and yet again Byrne stayed rooted firmly to his line for both, and also when they struck the bar late in the first half.

I think we need a more experienced keeper, as well as the obvious striker.

The worst one I ever saw was that (very) old ex Welsh 'international'. Can't remember his name (perhaps someone else on here with a better memory can help) but it must be at least 20 to 30 years ago.

Paul Williams. Ex Stockport. Cost them £250k once.

Abysmal. I don’t know what the problem was but it actually hurt watching him he was that bad. He was tall but couldn’t win a header, he was big but got bullied by defenders.

And those were his strengths! He wasn’t quick or mobile, couldn’t play and never scored.

Don’t think he won a header despite being 6ft 4in. Baffling.
