agreed, i'd rather struggle and look decent than struggle with sib on his arse up front

I can't see cort being much more than our "last 15 option" at least not to start with.
After lita goes he may start getting starts, but probably with hooly still in there.

THing is with Cort, if a chance fell to him i'd be reasonably confident he'd stick it away, which for a striker is surely the main point.

I'm slightly more than reasonably confident with regards to lita, unless he comes from the yoof I don't think we'll see another striker at CR who i'd be entirely confident in again. UNless something wierd happens and we get bought by some Saudi guy and get back in the prem.
Strikers that score a high percentage of their chances on a consistent basis don't play for teams near the bottom of the championship.

- No. Carl Cort isn't going to walk into the team. It will take him at least 3/4 weeks (NCFC) - Brandonio, Dec 9, 10:01:44
  - That's the thing about cort too, lots of serious injuries (n/m) (NCFC) - pants, Dec 9, 10:56:07
