I'm starting to lose patience with Simon Church.
My usual response to his lack of goals is, "well, at least he runs around a lot", but I'm starting to think that's all he does.
Whenever the ball drops to him I'm never confident something is going to happen.
Yes, the delivery to our strikers hasn't been magnificent this season but Yann got one chance last night...scored.
New striker NOW please RD.

Garry Nelson without the talent.

I sigh when parts of the crowd clap him after he has been running back and forth between defenders trying to get the ball. It's no good doing that. Wtf? Why bother wasting energy needlessly. I would rather see a smart player ( some would say lazy) conserving energy and making only meaningful runs. Still, I guess all fans like different types of player. Poor auld Church. Couldn't hit a barn door.

We need a player like Hale's, lazy who wouldn't run unless the ball was played to his feet and in the box and you know the rest.

If beng a good footballer was all about running (as some seem to believe), then Mo Farah would be Real Madrid's centre forward.

We had a player who wouldn't run unless the ball was to feet last year: Fuller - wasn't prolific either.
Just goes to show the shortage of talent up top for most lower-league teams.

Simon Church
I told you all the minute this lot signed that they were total and utter crap and got told to give them a chance.
Simon Church is a joke of a footballer, he wasn't even watched by the scouts or Powell, he was cheap and available and that is why he is here.
If we are still being forced to play cheap and available pub players after a takeover then I think it's safe to say L1 here we come!!

I agree with you Reams, although I was one of those who said "Give him a chance" because I felt he is decent a player going forward he just can't find the net.
We need to replace him. He's had his chance.

Can we loan Church to Standard Liege? Seems a bit unfair that all the traffic so far has been one way!

utterly abysmal player. League 2 at best and still would not be prolific.

We had one striker with a week to go before the beginning of the season and he was available, simple.

I don't know about that, but what I do know is that he never even looks like scoring. Not really sure that he could reach the back of the net from outside the box. Just doesn't seem to have a shot on him. Shame really as he seems a likeable lad who works hard, He needs the sort of accurate service that this team can't give him, but Bellamy and Ramsey for Wales sometimes can, which masks his deficiencies.
