If we play Vokes up front for the rest of the season without challenge, we will go down. Of that I'm absolutely certain.

I like the lad, works hard, but doesn’t score enough and at 31 I’d take the cash. Can’t see us getting more than 1m though I can see some similarities to offloading Afobe, sections of the crowd moaning at him, he moves and finds his old form straightaway He scored 10 in 44 last season, 10 in 43 the season before that. He’s got 4 in 23 this season. So 1 in 4 for Millwall and 1 in 5 for us. It’s not that far apart from usual form anyway. And I bet he played way more minutes in those two seasons than he has so far in this. He’s just not that good and never really was.

We knew what we were getting when we signed him, another signing that confirms there is something very wrong with "the process", our recruitment as a fcuking joke the reason we are where we are yet Scholes is still in a job why ?

We did indeed. 10 is his best in the Championship, he’s on for 8 with us if he stays at the same rate.

The problem is that we don't have too much money available for transfers. Considering that I doubt whether we can replace him with a better player.

Re Gregory for a striker his goal ratio is probably worse than sidibe. Only way I would keep him is if you can have your penalty taker sat on the bench.

I think Vokes should score plenty second half of the season, however if Gregory gets sold, Hogan goes back and he seems reluctant to use Diouf then a loan signing should be a priority.
I still think we should sign Gayle on loan

I think some people will only fully realise what a miserable performance and wasted opportunity yesterday was, when they look at the table at 10pm next Monday.

I still think we should sign Gayle on loan Gayle started for 'castle yesterday and is out for a month injured. Complete non-starter that one I think.

Didn't Gregory not re-sign for Millwall as he wanted to be closer to his family?

I like Gregory, but given his age and lack of goals we should be looking to sell if anyone bids £1 million or close to it.

I can see this one happening.
So what if he's further away from family, it's only for 4 months to get his career going again.
It'll give us some headroom to get in a striker who actually scores goals hopefully.

We surely can't let him go without replacing him can we. The way people have settled for Vokes frankly astounds me.

Better get this done before the 11th hour in case his driving is like his shooting and he aims for Cardiff but ends up in Carlisle.

We have to get rid of players to thin the squad down,ask Cardiff if they want Vokes too,2 for the price if one.

A lot of negativity towards Vokes here, but in my opinion we look better with him up front. Only get decent crosses in and he will be very valuable for us. Wins a lot of headers and I think he is our best option up front as the lone striker along with Campbell.
