Yes . I think I posted what I thought was needed but in retrospect after listening to others on here I realise I’m wrong.  Let’s face it we have only just come out of administration thanks to David Clowes.  
Warney I’m with you all the way to promotion we hope. 
 
PS Paul Warne is obviously doing his best and I know he knows what he’s doing. 

I really think we need one 

Or even just a bit sensible. Last year lads trip to Newcastle for the racing, hotel wanted £23 for breakfast. Or there's the local spoons at £3.95 plus a quid for a coffee....

There is if you are at the lower end of the financial system

It's a stag do, not a 1940's school reunion.

"Mad dogs and Paul Warne teams
Go out in the midday sun" 🤣
 
 

You wouldn't exercise dogs in this heat but footballers are expected to go out there and run like greyhounds. It's some macho thing that I just don't understand. 

@Curtains you're right they're risking RSI here! 😉 😄 Good fun. #COYR

Neptune is good 
 

Noah’s 

Tiger is a Rams bar 

Greyhound is good in Friargate

Standing Order is a good Wetherspoons.   Exeter Arms is good 
 

He is such a good player in my eyes.  
 

Yes wheels came off the run with his injury last season

Bird looks happy in Spain stuff so 🤞

I hope we don’t have to sell anyone else, however I’m realistic about where the club is in the football hierarchy currently, if a championship or premiership club came in with a good bid I think it would be at the very least considered. 

Yet. By the end of the window we will have a far stronger team than last season. If in fact we haven’t already which is my opinion. All the evidence shows they are going about it systematically and successfully. Strikers will be signed. We will be a serious force to be reckoned with next season, I think we will win it

Curtains, nowhere in the history of this forum, have Jourdan and Tyler ever backed a manager, until now 😁. You know we will be promoted because of that alone. I was a little worried about signings but since then we have signed well imo, so hopefully we get our permanent forward signings in shortly. 

I don’t think people disagree with what the concern is you’ve raised @Curtains, possibly how you’ve raised it?
So to be clear, yes ideally we do need another striker (or two).  
And Paul Warne has said as much himself, so the title of this thread seems misplaced, asking “Do we need a goalscorer Paul” seemingly ignores what Warne has already said, and could be interpreted as implying Warne doesn’t know that. Perhaps something was lost in the black and white of text whereas in verbal conversation people could hear your tone. 

You asked why we are signing all these defenders? The answer to that question is because we needed them, as much as we need attacking players.  You have to keep goals out as well as scoring them at the other end. We didn’t have any senior fullbacks or wingbacks last season and in the summer Curtis Davies, Richard Stearman, James Chester, and Haydon Roberts all left leaving us with Cashin, Forsyth and Rooney as the only defenders in the first team squad. Adding Nelson, Bradley, Wilson, Elder and Ward has given us the bodies needed at the back and solved our full/wingback situation. 
You asked where the 4 are that Warne wants, I’m not clear if you mean 4 other signings or 4 attackers? WaRnE stated before they left for Spain the squad is probably 4 or 5 players short, Kane Wilson signed after that so perhaps it’s now 3 or 4 players. There’s still time and I suspect plenty of work going on behind the scenes to add those final pieces of the puzzle. As others have said, perhaps targets are weighing up their options, or maybe we had to wait for the sales of Bielik and Knight to fund the acquisition of our new star striker.

Ideally we’ll soon see a star striker join along with another midfielder to replace Knight, that would further complement what we’ve got and give me further confidence for this season, I really don’t see the need for extra concern currently as there’s still time. My own view is that it’s a squad game, we have a more balanced squad currently than we did last season with a better age profile and more suitable cover for each position (no midfielders playing wingback!). There are some goals in the side, if the season started tomorrow, the attacking options we have do carry a goal threat and I would be confident in us beating Wigan with a solid defensive effort and a goal or two from the likes of Collins, Sibley, NML, Barkhuizen, Hourihane, Washington or Ward. Might not be enough for a full season, but there’s time yet to add bodies, try not to worry too much. 🐏 

Don’t hold your breath 😂 lol
