It's no surprise Ellis had lots in the tank for the last 15, he spent more time either stood still or sat on the floor than he did getting in to attacking positions for the first 75 minutes. Fair play though he took the goal incredibly well and defended superbly after scoring. He was defending his win bonus. Id put myself about for 15 minutes if there was £250 riding on it!

How do you know this? Ellis has been with us long enough for fans to give an opinion, don't you think? Meanwhile, to those who think we need to spend big money... How much have we spent to go from the conference to the top half of LG1? If Taylor's release clause was double we might have scored an extra 6/7 goals by now and be in the top 7! Fans aren't allowed an opinion unless they've done paid scouting work. Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit. As for how I know dc was saying how he was our best striker only a couple of games ago and Ms was doing the same after yesterday's game.

You wouldn't last 15 minutes you would need a taxi to get back into position if you ran more than 25 meters

I would not argue against MS,DC and Padstow claiming Ellis is are best striker. After all his competition is Gaffney, James, Lucas and Easter. The two latter, one who has spent most of the time on loan and the other who has been told he is no longer required. That as far as I am concerned is more than good reason why better quality is needed urgently in the close season.

Yeah we've got Gafney who works really hard but doesn't score many, James who works incredibly hard but is never a striker in a million years and waytoo weak ,Easter who is a good player and always has been but has only been prolific for one season in a long career and that was a long time ago and Harrison who can be lazy as hell and so frustrating but he's definitely our best goal scorer out of the current crop. Personally I wouldn't be too disappointed if they all left and we brought in a completely new front line over the summer. If I had to keep one it would be Gaffney The season for that is because I saw how he linked up so well with Twatty when he was here and if we can find a replacement then I think Gaf would be best suited as a strike partner .

Perhaps they are just trying to boost his transfer fee for when he moves on in the summer and we have to go before the FA to agree his fee, as if they both genuinely think he's the best striker why as does he spend so much time sat on the bench? What's irritating about EH is that if he put half of LJ's or RG's effort in every game he'd probably be our best CF since Jason Roberts.

Missing from Sat were;Clarke-Salter,Leads,Gaffers,Ollie,Hartley etc so we have quite a sizeable squad but the quality up front other than Bodin simply isn't good enough.People say 'James and Gaffers' work hard but James never scores or even shoots and Gaffers doesn't head the ball and plays out wide.His goal's ratio too is very poor.Three new strikers for me.Would keep Ellis as an impact sub.

Well if our owner is prepared to sign players like billy sharp,charlie wyke,simon cox,ian henderson etc etc then great we would be a stronger team but as there is no evidence that that will happen the likes of ellis and rory gaffney are decent players at this level. Mario wants to run with the hare and the hounds,he hates any critical comment on the regime at rovers but somehow thinks were going to get better than ellis,rory and others without spending any money!!Makes me laugh Please quote where I have said this. You won't be able too, because I haven't said it, but please find where I said that. I'm waiting. Just to say sorry about "the hare and the hounds" comment,i think we disagreed on a luke james thread i created and i confused that with issue we were discussing on this thread. My bad
