IMHO the addition of a pacey striker is without doubt a major priority.
As another poster said all the previous names mentioned by the club have evaporated for the present.
Even outgoings, although I did see Scunny have bid £200k for Hanson but Wilder not now sure he can let him go due to no striker arriving.
With Wilder we could have a real chance of a very successful season but the additional striker urgently needed to support Billy.

Heyup is it the Kenty?

I couldn't agree with you more mate. Wilder has said on more than one occasion that he didn't want it to go down to the final day and so we must assume things haven't gone to plan with some of the targets, but we MUST at the very least get another striker in.

Whichever way you look at it, the money was there to bring players in so he should be backed, but there does seem to have been so much time wasted on certain players that I've started to smell the usual bull to be honest. Fir instance did we really think we had a chance of bringing in Coadey? Wolves are awash with cash, he'd be on comparatively big big bucks with them and he was named as their new captain and playing every game. It just didn't add up.

So here I am with my usual doubts saying what what I've said so many times over the last decade, prove me wrong United owners and board. Back the best manager we've had in decades to the hilt and don't risk risk derailing a train that is firmly on the right track.
