Does anyone think we could actually sign Pavoletti? I'm not 100% sure but I have a bad feeling that we won't and we'll instead go for Cani. Most of our signings under Massimo have been players that we've had no competition to sign, which isn't the case with Pavoletti. If a multitude of clubs are chasing a player it means that they must possess some quality so I'm quite eager to get him in. Thoughts?

Sound reasoning to me. Whatever happens with him, its going to be in the last couple of hours of deadline day I'm guessing

Pavoletti has signed for chievo with a n other player(stiker)going theother way
looks like well get cani instead

I am a big Cellino fan but only for the fact that he has been willing to put his money where his mouth is.
However I believe that our in and out form this season (mainly out!) is due to the fact that we have had so many head coaches trying different players and formations. This must cause uncertainty amongst the players.
I sometimes wonder (and I know I'm going to get shot down for this) where we would be in the league if Cellino had kept faith with Mcdermot?

23rd?
If I keep saying that I'll be right eventually

Why does nearly everyone on here dislike Morison?
Top quality player in a rubbish team.
Austin has proved himself good enough for one last season so leave him alone.
We have the greatest kids in the league but they need old hands to bring them on.
Ok nobody likes where we are but as long as we survive this year then we can only get better next.
From what I saw of Morison last home game
I for one believe

Mmm. interesting point of view. If he was a "top quality player", don't you think he might have just scored a goal or two? I don't dislike him, and he puts in a bit of effort, but most "top quality" strikers should actually hit the back of the net on the odd occasion, don't you think?

Morison's confidence is shot therefore when he has the opportunity to shoot he looks for a different option instead. His work rate has significantly improved with his recent run of games and offers far more than Doukara who is bone idle and has little positional sense. However a striker's worth is measured in goals scored and currently Doukara outweighs Morison and therefore some supporters feel that Doukara should play ahead of Morison

top player but millwall sent him back and not played for 2 years says it all

Ive been to a few off the games since morrison has played ul top on his own . The lads done well and I can't remember him missing a good chance imo if he stays fit the goals will come

Steve M ain't top quality for all the reasons stated, yes last few games he has done OK (apart from score) but quality? no way, Milwall didn't want him, he has not scored for us at best he is trying but Smith would be so much better or someone like him.

If SM scores more than 5-6 goals a season I will be amazed, so quality? no not for me just a journeyman at best, we should be looking at better, MC got it wrong when smith was sold in my opinion, always have said this.

Well I've already said we should just get behind whoever is selected from now on, and that I won't criticise any players or Redders.
Personally, if we keep playing and winning like we did last time, I don't care who plays and who scores the winning goal (s)

I agree that Morrison will come good - he is a decent championship striker - as is Billy Sharp & both will score goals for us if we can just create the chances which has been our problem so often this season

He's getting on a bit now too, we should be looking at a younger proven striker.

His first goal for us will probably be against Millwall.
