Apologies if already on here,but noticed Gillingham interested in Southends Harry Cardwell,along with few other clubs,Rotherham Bolton,Exeter etc,17 goals,4 assists
 
Similar player to Hawks, but quicker and particularly tenacious. I`ve seen him play quite a lot, in the NLN and NL. Would be good as a #3 choice, IMO.

Cardwell would be a good squad addition and wouldn`t be surprised if he`s on our radar, but, if we are serious about competing for an auto-promotion spot for 24/25, i`m hoping that our two (new) primary forwards for 24/25 will be of higher pedigree.

Just a suspicion, but, Cardwell`s team-mate at Southend (who I shall be watching on Saturday) - Jack Bridge, could be slightly higher up the list of players we might be interested in.
 
I'd rather we went for wide, pace/power. Ability to score, ability to beat a man.

Until proven otherwise, I think Andrews can lead our line next year, with Hawkins in reserve.
 
The article I saw would suggest we have plenty of competition. I don't understand why we didn't go for him/them last summer. We have been linked for over a year now.

I agree but if there is competition, he may select a club where he will be a regular pick.

Poleon and Josh Rees only have one less goal this season and Akinyemi and even our other ex-player Josh Parker only have 3 goals less at NL level.

Having been given a more forward role, Josh Rees has very done well this season.

Re Cardwell, wouldn`t be surprised to see him move back up north. Wouldn`t be too surprised if a club like Fylde made him an offer.

Speaking of Poleon, I watched him Tuesday night at Solihull and he was practically anonymous. He can definitely finish, but doesn't offer a lot outside that.

at this level in a hard working team you can afford to carry a real goalscorer.

Reminds me of that Van Nistelrooy quote when United were scouting him at PSV- Something like 'Slow, not a great touch, technically limited, not involved in link up play... scored a hat trick.' (Could be apocryphal)

Probably why we didn’t sign Alfie May in the end, - scores loads of goals, but doesn’t do much else, hence the opposite of those we did go for.
