Tony Mowbray left the press waiting for over an hour after the final whistle to do his post match press conference last night, when he arrived he apologised and mentioned he was speaking with Kristjaan Speakman regarding strikers.
STRIKERS
"We've been talking about strikers and recruitment and hopefully that [situation] will change over the next few days. We need to try to put some players into the football club if we can. We are discussing things. There's always options, and the recruitment department have done an amazing job over the last few years at this football club. The options are laid out. Some are pretty expensive, some are pretty do-able, and some are stretching us to where we don't really want to go to at this minute. What do we do?”
INTERNAL DISCUSSIONS
“The club will make the right decision, I'm sure. We need to back [head of recruitment] Stuart Harvey. He works extraordinarily hard, and he's given us the options. We'll sit there with Kristjaan, and with Veno [Mark Venus] and the two Mikes, Proctor and Dodds, and the goalkeeping coach [Alessandro Barcherini], and we're discussing the next option, really.”
CAN’T BE TOO PATIENT
"Are we going to bring one in? Is he the right one? You need to get the right one, but you might have to wait for the right one, so are we going to go weeks and weeks, and then it falls through? I think the best thing is to get one in the building now. Then let's work with him. I'm not sure we're in the market to get the finished article. I think we're in the market to sign young footballers that all need polishing up, so I don't think we'll be getting the finished article, but still, let's get one more in the building and get to work."
