I'm done for the summer. Even a small article like this gets used to give him grief/mock him. See you pre season.

Pre season is in the summer.

In fairness, I think he's less saying this as some huge revelation, and more as a hint to the board to say "give me the funds for an extra striker".

You have to laugh at the comments on here. Yes he stated the obvious but if he had not mentioned it everyone would be frothing saying that he can’t even see the bleeding obvious.

Posters are all too quick to highlight faults and failings and although BH has hardly set the world alight, he’s still not been given a fair crack at the job.

I also read this article as a message from the manager to the board that they should support his intention to address the striker issue.

I know Hughes was not everybody's choice as manager (including mine), but we should cut the guy some slack as he did a reasonable job during the run in with the resources he had available to him.

Agree. He is the manager and deserves time and resources to prove his worth. Could be painful and fail; but could also be the change in attitude we so badly need.

Agree with this not much he could do with the "tools" at his disposal when he got here.
Also needs to establish a pattern of play which creates chances for the strikers.

We haven’t had a prolific goalscorer for 25 years at this club, so why would we get one now? The Morrell season was a fluke. And before Bennett you have to go back to Rooster for a season or 2 and then to the likes of Whittle and McNeil in the 1970’s.

moult and Kayden Jackson were top class strikers both with potential to improve , so if we find one he will not be here long

I'm not sure he did a reasonable job. W finished pretty much as low as we'd been all season, then lost in the play offs at home to a team who finished way behind us, without even scoring a goal.

He was the wrong choice when we hired him and I don't see how sticking with a bad choice is helpful.
