Just to be cantankerous is this a player we ought to be targeting ? Adam Rooney scored shed loads for Aberdeeen and ended up at Salford in non league. Don't think he is pulling up many trees in League two this season. It is a two horse League at best and some of the other sides are shocking. Got to be honest i'm not convinced myself. Just for the record Rooney has scored 24 goals in 53 games for Salford. Appreciate its a lower level of course. Stockley from Preston was unearthed by Derek Mcinnes and now at Preston. Cosgrove is miles better than him.

I'm not convinced with Cosgrove. He seems like he's bullying shit defenders to me, he won't have that down here. Not sure he has real pace either He has real pace, don't worry about that. Very little service like Morelos of Ranger. Still score plenty. He will go right to the top. Just turned 23 and will improve. Looks like Middlesborough will beat us to him unless a Premiership club or Lazio jump in. I have a feeling there will be a scramble for him in a couple of weeks. Ran Rangers defence ragged the other night. Did not see Port, Feyenord or Young Boys do that to them. Will keep us up if we buy him. What else have we got. Very fatty Vokes at Β£9M is the worst signing ever. Don't make another mistake like that TS.

Sam Cosgrove isn't that brilliant.

I think we already have capable strikers, we just donβt have a capable midfield to get them the ball in a good position. Well...actually we do (Badou, Etebo), they just donβt play.

So that's a "no" then.
Can't see we need him if we get our set up right, even with who we have.

Strikes me as a kind of Peter crouch type striker. Crouchie was the sort of player we should have signed years before we did. I was hopeful we might actually go all out for this guy, but as usual it seems its the normal short sighted Stoke. Like someone else said, if he was 33 and looking at the end of his career then we would be in like a shot! I would rather we signed some young hungry striker who might go up in value than waste money on loans... Like Hogan..

We certainly need a big target man. Whether this guy would be good enough, I've no idea. Either way, it looks like we might not be able to afford him.

A watching brief, is that the new monitoring the situation? Cue another player through the side door, one that is not quite what we need but a "good deal for the club" It's a shame others are borrowing our potential spending assets without spending themselves

We all knew it was coming, it still hurts the same. We cannot afford players from outside of the top two in Scotland.
You absolute weapons.

Scholes and John Coates really have killed our great club with numerouse bad decisions over the last few years.

You absolute weapons. i don't doubt that Stoke COULD afford it if the deal was solely based on the club having the finances BUT the rules of FFP mean we are not allowed to spend the necessary amount in this window.

Absolutely and I made the post with that in mind. Part of me thinks FFP is ridiculous given our circumstances. The other part of me thinks our business post relegation is and was ridiculous, some in hindsight.
