60 goals in last 3 seasons is hard to knock

We've already got one who's scored 50 in the last 3 and another who's scored 47.  

May's good but 31 this week and did f all against us last season.

I don't think Birmingham will be too concerned about his age, they just want promotion.

Charles has scored 38 league goals in the last 3 seasons, May has scored 66 in the same period (the 60 mentioned above is too low if Wiki is right).

Yeah I’d not sign anyone 30 plus but I don’t doubt he’d do a good job anywhere else.

Who has scored 47, is it Victor?

Of Course.

Great signing for Brum if it comes off and exactly the type we should be going after. This season is all about getting up not bringing young players on so we need to forget age and go for proven quality players who we know can deliver. Yes quality costs but if you want success you have to pay for it.

Collins has 43 (not that I would judge a player on stats alone, far from it).

May wouldn't do the pressing that Charles does.

Charles perhaps isn't quite as good a finisher as May.

Horses for courses, and another situation where Evatt has picked the players he wanted to sign.

In our system, both charles and vic need to be judged well beyond goals

[only1swanny]

We're not shy of goals,  we need to stopletting them in..

Whilst I agree. 

Maybe it’s where we or more he goes wrong.

Doyle signing was still the most mental in terms of signing a poacher and turning him into a midfielder.

I think in years to come his 19 goals that season will look bloody impressive

I think you can allocate 2 places in the squad to players who aren't likely to get a permit 

[Deanu]

Yeah, Doyle did very well to get 19 goals with all the overcomplicated BS of the likes of Greenidge/Delaney/Brockbank being told to play like Akanji/Gvardiol/Ake, at the start Doyle was drifting to RWB/LWB/CM everywhere through frustration of having no supply to him & obviously all the pressure on him being the marquee signing. Playing up front in Evatt's system for L2/L1 football is a lot more overcomplicated then it should be, Dion/Vic with all their energy being used specifically for defending from the front & not knowing when we'll eventually progress the ball up to them so I think they do a good job. Clarke-Harris & Alfie May two of the best goal-scorers in the league of the last few years but they'd be bored shitless & lose interest fast playing up top for us.

Weren’t twelve of Doylers goals penalties though, much like Dions?

Just a question

Which foreign players can we actually sign

Im guessing we can no longer sign a foreigner without a work permit?

You can sign (I think) up to 4 without needing a work permit.  If they fail a work permit you can allocate them an ESC place in the squad.

You have to play them though.

Bolton fell to the same fate as Peterborough as they were also defeated in the playoff semi-finals, and will look to weaken their rivals with a move for Randall.

Based on that I'll take the rumour with a huge pinch of salt
