Not sure really, was good before he joined WBA, but his career has diminished since then.
Are we still in for Maynard as well, or is that just a false rumor?
Who knows about Maynard. Always a long shot IMO.
Simon Cox is spoken of in high regard by those who watch him play, but his record doesn't match up. Why has he been used so little if he is so good? Does he have injury problems? If he had the potential, wouldn't West Brom have farmed him out on loan? There is also the matter of cost, presumably he'll be on similar to Ish Miller, coming from the same club. I'd personally love to take a gamble on someone like Jordon Rhodes, because 40+ in a season, whatever league you're in is no fluke. He's also young, and will only grow in value. He wouldn't be cheap though.
If we're signing Cox, who are we offloading?
It's not like we don't have a few to choose from!!!!
Huddersfield would probably want silly money for Rhodes, so Cox is probably more affordable, especially if we lose some dead wood to free up wage money.
Very happy if this comes to fruition. This is gonna be some team!
he is no better than what we have got. total waste of money
bob ... have any of our current strikers ever been prolific? No. So by that reasoning, he is better than what we have got. Possibly.
i did not say any of the so called strikers we have got are prolific. but i dont see this guy being that? if we sign him i hope i am wrong.
"he is no better than what we have got. total waste of money"
Don't you start this as well, there's one or two miserable posters showing up on here and we are still 2 weeks away from the season. What happened to your faith in SOD?
al-florist i am entitled to my opinion if you dont like it tuff.

Very strange way to support your team...
yes season ticket holder are you?
and by the way i will be at notts 2moz will you
Fair comment Bob, not knocking your right to an opinion, just that it would be nice if you actually saw him play in a red shirt (if we even sign him) before making a judgement.
Cox might get you out of a hole, but not sure he can stick it you're onion bag as regular as many of you lot would like .
i did say in a comment if we sign him i hope i am proved wrong
You never know with strikers.
Marlon King, Dougie Freeman, and the guy from Millwall (not Sheringham) whose name evades me were all prolific before they joined us, but when they pulled on the Garibaldi . . .
This time last year I was all excited because we had signed Ishmael Miller. I'll reserve judgement on Cox.
But that makes it seven strikers, surely we have to put a couple out on loan if we can't sell them.
Neil Harris?........... Redfor?
No comment from Ray?
He loves to see Cox in action.
