I’m not convinced this Darren Witcoop knows anything anyway? Is he reliable? The only way it makes sense to me is if we have another main striker addition lined up and Armstrong is a target as a squad player in which case I can appreciate we would need to move on of the current strikers on. No way that Armstrong would be a main target for us but we can’t move without offloading someone first. I just can’t see it. Totally agree....who is this dave witcoop. Let's just chill and not believe everything we see in print. So far the 3 signings we've made at first glance look positive. I trust SJW and SS go come up with the goods more than I trust dave whatsiscoop

much better goal scoring record Why not sign both? Campbell and Gayle have gone. Move Mmaee out too. We need at least 2 new strikers.

Ugbo would be an astute piece of business.

Personally I think there’s certainly room for both. Good to see us looking at a promising player we can develop and a player who proved he can do it at this level who just 25.

Armstrong looks like a beast. He’s 21 and certainly has the physical attributes to make it at this level. He’s won their young player of the year twice already. I’d be very happy to see him join.

This is exactly the type of player we need. The room they would give Bae, Million and Cundle would lead to loads of goals.

Don’t want Sinclair Armstrong, rather have McBurnie (who’s a free)+ a guaranteed goal scorer, would absolutely bully defenders in this league, then add someone like Ugbo, rather not spend 2mil on a gamble like Armstrong when there’s ready made strikers available

Which is fine as we shouldn't be judging someone by what they can do in the premier league while we ain't there.

www.irishexaminer.com/sport/soccer/arid-41437930.htmlJon Walters influence could lean Irish striker Sinclair Armstrong towards StokeBristol City have been long-time admirers of Armstrong and were on track to hatch a deal until fellow Championship outfit Stoke City upped their interest in recent days. Both clubs are understood to have reached QPR’s valuation, considering he’ll be available on a free next summer, and have left the decision in the player’s hands. Where Stoke may hold sway is the player’s past relationship with Jon Walters, this year’s elevated to the position of Sporting Director at the club he lined out for.

Surely we'd sooner have Armstrong or Ugbo to McBurnie? He comes across as a right loose cannon.

He's an eye catching target man with pace but doesn't score goals, maybe they will come Haven’t we got a few of them already
