In the last 8 games the strikers have scored just 2 of the team's 7 goals.
Not so long ago many folks were calling for Dickov's head, yet in a matter of weeks that is much less so as PD has signed the defence that makes us hard to beat.Perhaps we should afford our strikeforce the same chance to turn things around in respect of goalscoring?

Ian NimmoYou DO realise that we've lost only one of our last 8 games, and that in the League we've picked up 12 points from the last 6 games and 17 from the last 10, losing just one in this 10 games?You do realise that don't you, when you say we should drop our strikers and play an unproven kid or a centre half up front?
When folk start talking about putting untried youth teamers in, it is worth considering that you might damage their self confidence if it doesn't go well. Young lads need to be introduced when they are ready, and that includes being strong enough mentally. None on here knows whether the time is right for these lads.The other thing is that boys in the current youth team are behind the previous years intake. The likes of Peterson, Ferguson and Whitehouse should be further along than McKay and Mandeville at present.Truth is, no-one has seen enough of these players to know if they are ready. Only the manager and coaching staff can be in the know on this.
Sounds like you want promotion bb? Why? Just so we can come straight back down? We're where we are because of what we are a small town club allways av been allways will be why? Because you can't be anything else with a average crowd of 5 to 6 thousand , the board can't possibaly give pd any cash to improve on these crowds, and not one person on here can honestly say this currant crop of players are good enough to be anything else, league position speaks for itself, goal stats same, I thought we were at beginning of season but we av to face up to the facts, but that's whet following the rovers as allways been like? well that's all I can remember, I've been watching since the 19 60s.
As I have said numerous times it never stopped Billy from giving the lads their debuts at young ages and probably made them grow up quicker.Glynn and Ian Snodin 17Paul Raven 18Mark Rankine 18Steve Gaughan 18Rufus Brevett 19
