You get playoffs if you don't bottle the last 5 games. You still fell away.

You lost 4 3 at home man with promotion still on. How can you argue that you didn't bottle it 🤣

We were a mid table team all season and then lost 1 game in our last 12. Ending with our best run of the season

But we bottled it.

@Banks everyone 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

What if he scores no goals and he's on 25k a week for next 3 years?

We need a striker but he's overpriced for one good season. It's a gamble from boro

Any signing SAFC make will be a gamble.
In our position, with our model, paying our fees and paying our wages there’s no “sure thing” on the planet going to sign for us.

Championed him on other posts. Would have been perfect in our system. Strong, relatively quick, young, plenty of room to improve, but experienced enough he wouldn't need time to adjust. At 4.5 million it's should of been a no brainer really.

Think his goals record is 0.4 per 90 - extrapolate that over a season, it wouldn't be far off 20 goals a season, assuming he played the majority of minutes.

There was no way we were spending that kind of money unless we sold a player for similar.
Would love to be proved wrong.

I'll help you out 😂

5 league goals from open play last season in 39 games.

It's 1 goal in every 8 games. That's f***ing awful in truth.

They went to Sheff U and beat them 3 nil. Then they bottled it , they could have auto.
Still don’t know why they didn’t beat cov in the last match , or try to. They could have played us in the semi then , let Luton take care of Cov.

Year before they shit their pants as well , at Preston. Pattern forming ?

Conway, 5 goals from open play in 39 league games last season.

Massive risk for £4.5M IMO.

Every signing is a risk.

I posted his stats earlier, 24 goals in 92 in the championship last two seasons. At 22 years old, i think 4.5m seems reasonable and I'd love to see us sign a striker like that, we're crying out for a striker.

Ellis Simms was 8m
