However, I'm just going to speculate about everyone I've heard of until the season starts as is tradition on this thread

Thing is, it's virtually impossible to sign worse strikers than we've had so lets be positive.

Oh we could unless we sort the midfield out.

Have you not learnt yet that there's always worst players around?

If it is Willoughby were rumoured to be signing then that's a pretty exciting Signing. 20 goals in a relagated side is pretty impressive.

We have a bit of wriggle room, but the players we bring in have to be signed with the expectation of starting and improving our line up.

Didn’t Ainge score goals in the league below? I’d be disappointed if I didn’t get 10 if I was still playing...

He did, but he was also playing in a Harrogate side who were challenging up the top end of the table. Scoring 18 for a poor side that ended up relegated is still impressive no matter what way you look at it.

It's not uncommon for strikers to kick and score in this league. Rowe, Tarpey, and Reece Styche are couple I can think of off the top of my head.

Also Jamie Vardy, Andre Gray, Lee Gregory....Lee Trundle!

If we just don't look at players from the leagues below because one loan signing didn't work out (and a player who came to us after a long injury suffering from a lack of fitness) . Well that's just barmy. Look at all the discussion about Durrell. We need to look at players in the National league North and other leagues down the pyramid more than we do IMO.
