Some of our support, in a nutshell:

"Oh God. We need a striker. Why the hell won't we sign a striker. Why?"

We sign a striker as an injury replacement, on a short term loan

"Never heard of him. He must be useless. He didn't play for Barcelona and score 170 goals in the Champions League. Rubbish signing"

Someone else might have said it already, but I'm sure that we once signed some guy called Shane Smeltz, who was playing non-league in the UK at the time. If I remember rightly, he was alright.

Just noticed that charliec made the same point earlier, but I won't delete this, I'll leave it here as antidote to all the "non-league = not very good then" stuff that's floating around
