So much is wrong with this that I'm not sure where to start with it.
1. I can't remember the last time Nolan played Forte on the wing but I'm fairly sure it was at the end of last season
2. The two geriatric strikers that can't score - That would be Jon Stead, who needs one more goal to reach 14 for the 3rd season in a row and by the way, has more appearances and goals for us than any other team in his career and Shola, who unless you're blind not only visibly improves our team when he plays but is also actually in better goal scoring form than he was when he was at Newcastle in his prime, not bad for someone that isn't in the team for his goals.
3. If Forte had played more games... All hypothetical because the guy is made out of glass, his career history shows this. This is probably the first time all season he's actually been fit for 3 games in a row.
Forte had a few starts earlier in the season and looked half-hearted and ineffective. But let me guess durham - it wasn't him, he just wasn't getting the service! I genuinely hope he carries on with his form of the last two games, he deserves to start against Yeovil.
:D:D
i don't think he's (Forte) over his hip injury either he seems to hold it when he scores or goes on a run.
Lets hope he keeps the run going until the end of the season hes a better header of the ball than I remember .
He trains by drinking Red Bull...."gives you wings".....Goaaaaaaaaaaaal v Covo

Stead has scored only 9 goals in the league compared to Fortes 7 and most of those were penalties. Not a very good return considering how many game he has played. It would be intersting to see how many on this board would like him in our starting line up next season....
I don't think he's there to actually score goals, like Ameobi he's there to receive the ball - although how they bring it down from twenty feet I don't know, it amazes me - and then lay it off for that really quick striker we have, trotting in from the half-way line, you know, err...
Anyway, I must stop this hilarity. Seriously though folks, unless we sign three more strikers, one similar to Stead only younger and faster, one that can last more than a game and a half, a third for a rainy day and all three under 30 years of age, we will probably start with Stead and... Forte!
