This just isn't true.
What's your point?
We tried buying a striker in January to get us out of league one that cost us 3m. That didn't work either.My point is we chose not to gamble and are still stuck in the Championship.
I accept we could have spent £5 million and still not gone up but we didnt even try and that is disappointing
We finished sixth, due to the recruitment as a whole and the coaching staff. Massive over achieving on expectations but still the bellend brigade have to spout negativity, some of our ‘support’ are an embarrassment.
No one's whinging, I consider myself a happy clapper to a large degree but do think that the manager, players and fans were let down in the January window, even Mowbray publicly requested a striker, do you not think the players would want a striker and at the very least an out ball and presence up top to help them get out and hold the ball up.
The point that we scored plenty of goals and therefore didn't need a striker is way, way off the mark imo....the recent loss of centre backs was the final straw and just compounded the situation.
Everyone thinks differently though and no-one is spitting their dummy either way....just voicing an opinion.
Bore off man.Not having a focal point dictated their whole strategy. They pressed us very high up the pitch , knowing we could not play over the top.
My point is that gambling and not going up , we would be in a far far worse position now.My point is we chose not to gamble and are still stuck in the Championship.

ThisWe did better than anyone expected. We actually performed better without a striker. It's been a strange season and there's no one reason why we have done so well and no one reason that we haven't gone up. If Ballard and Batth were fit we would probably be going to Wembley. In the end it was injuries to defenders that cost us.
Bore off man.
Same broken record for months.
Hence we didn’t get striker in Jan because no one suitable available. Lack of central defenders cost us, nothing more, nothing less.So that failure is going to.dictate our transfer policy from now on.
Leaving aside that most of the players the new recruitment team have signed have been impressive, indicating that when we do recruit in the main we have recruited well.
My point is that gambling and not going up , we would be in a far far worse position now.
We wouldn't be able to get players this summer due to gambling and paying over the odds in January on a 'quality physical striker' as you said.
It's pretty hard to get the strikers you want in January.
But if you'd have preferred us to gamble, spend loads on a striker who was way down our list as our top options couidnt / wouldnt come in January, meaning that we were now financially fucked to get our top options this summer, then there's nothing I can do to convince you that this short termism is stupid and the reason why we were millions in debt getting relegated to league 1.
It’s literally impossible to know if the club actually tried to sign these strikers in January also so you too are talking bollocks.
We played this same Luton side in October. We had no striker, but we did have a back 5 of Patterson, O'nien, Wright, Batth, Cirkin. Our No. 9 that match was Amad and we drew 1-1.Lets get this straight. Our owners are billionaires, richer than some premier league owners. We have been getting gates which far exceed most clubs in our division.
We have invested modest amounts so far but paying 5 million for a striker will fuck us up financially and stop us buying players in the summer.
Really?
