Anon Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 (edited) I completely understand his irritation with sections of our fans. There are some unbelievably stupid things that have been said and sung about him. He does like running his mouth though, see his stupid comments about non league Wrexham somehow being disrespectful last season. He's got a massive chip on his shoulder and one "King" Billy is already enough to last me a lifetime. Then there's the most pertinent issue that plenty of others have mentioned, surely we can find better options than a 37 year old looking for a final payday?

Kernow Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 If it was a choice between Sharp or Godden, I’d choose Godden every day. Surprised Coventry wouldn’t too, to be honest. Animal is a Ram, Old Spalding Ram and 21CSchizoidRam 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think the argument around signing Sharp needs to be any more complicated than this. Surely, SURELY, our scouting team can find a striker below the age of 30, ffs!

TuffLuff Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 Billy Sharp is the type of striker, who at 37 isn’t going to start games, but you could bring on with 20 minutes to go when it’s 0-0 and can score you a goal. We haven’t really had that striker for a while md I think we need a young, pacy option up there too but I see no problem with having a look. He might only score 5 goals but those 5 goals could gain us an extra 10 points come the end of the season. Also that 5 players for 2 spots would be about right wouldn’t it? Collins, Washington, Godden, a young pacey loan and Sharp wouldn’t be a bad mix would it if Sharp was 90% of the time your impact sub?

hintonsboots Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 Would be an excellent signing for League 1 level, and why shouldn’t he have a similar impact goals wise as McGoldrick ? The age argument needs to be put into perspective. Ashley Young is talking to Everton about a deal at 38, and if Warne uses him solely as a goal poacher and doesn’t expect him to press and run 10k a game, it will work well.

The argument of the one player you can think of that plays at age 482 compared the evidence of the majority of players who have retired doesn't hold much weight.

BramcoteRam84 Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 He’s just said in a sky sports interview he’s had in offers from the championship and below but the championship is where he thinks he should be playing. He’s not coming here then. Our only interest is if Cov sign him and does that potentially free up Godden (if we’re even in for him that is) Interestingly Sharp also said Heckingbottom wanted to give him another year but it didn’t happen, presumably overruled by others in the club.

Wolfie20 Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 Couldn't see him coming here in view of his comments about us and the treatment he's had from a few isolated morons who claim to be Derby fans. If he did, it wouldn't be on less than a 2 year contract which would mean him clocking for 40 by the time it ended. I hope to high heaven there's absolutely no truth in this and would be staggered if there was - it's a road we definitely shouldn't be going down, for the age issue alone!

Agree with the above. What cost us promotion last season though was not converting the myriad of chances created. Warne knows we need a Sharp type player, only time will tell if it is him or Godden/ Smith etc. May Contain Nuts 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
